'surf look' hair gel

[thaya]

I was shopping for bits and pieces like you do (you know, shampoo etc) and I saw this green bottle of hair gel that said something like 'for the surf look'. I started chuckling a little (well, I think it's funny!) and this teenage girl walked over and picked it up, so I smiled and said "it's much more fun to get the surf look by going surfing". She gave me a strange look and ran off with the bottle. I didn't mean what I said to be rude, rather some magical advice that would inspire her to surf ( ). do you think i was rude? I just thought it's so strange that people will PAY money to make their hair look messed up like you've been surfing And anyway, I'm sure salt water sprayed in your hair would probably do it (not that i've tried) and be much cheaper.

[CheeZee]

[essex sucks]

are there all mad why would u want to make your messed i know once i am out of the water i brush it back down too make it look better
they are mad i tell u mad

[silky]

No I don't think you were rude Thaya, just stating a fact!

The messy hair look is in, surfing is going through a short term fad amongst the 'trendy' so they've just made a connection with 'clever' marketing

No hair product can match the dried salt-water effect!!

Take some 'learn to surf' leaflets into the store and put them next to the product

most young people now are to lassy and will rather sit at home with the tv or pc/ps. when they do not know what they are missing

As we edge towards winter, you'll need to sit in the chilled section (fruit juice and yogurts are always a good choice) for the rosy cheeked/blue fingers look

I like it! I was going to just scoff ice cream real quick for that authentic brain freeze feeling.

[thaya]

don't forget a bit of sand in your ears and a runny nose (hot food might do that). maybe rub lemon in your eyes to get that all day sting-y feel? and rub your bare hands and feet around all the shelving in the hope that you get a few cuts and grazes - climb one of them and fall off for the ulitmate 'board-hitting-you-when-you-wipeout' look. that should do it.

if its that fructis "surf hair" stuff, my mrs uses it. It doesnt actually make your hair look anything like youve been surfing (as you can tell from the models on the packaging).

[PapaW]

They sponsord one of the comp/surf events a few years back.... what a cop out.

[Ellie]

I used it the other day when I'd run out of hairspray....

Thank f*** it failed to provide me with my "surf look" - apparently work don't like it when you turn up looking like a frizzy Marge Simpson!

[Mitur Bin'esderty]

ARRGH..i tried this stuff when i had short hair..U have to rub it into the roots..Really hurt my scalp..and i looked like i just woke up

Actually, that 'Surf Gel' really works. But you have to use it in a particular way:

DIRECTIONS FOR USE:

Apply <<Brand Name>> 'Surf Hair' liberally to the eyeballs and inside of nostrils, inhaling sharply. Squeeze remainder of gel into dirty toilet, add 3 bags of salt (sea salt preferable) and 2 bags of crushed ice. Insert head and flush.

This essentially gives you the 'authentic surf look'

[CheeZee]

lmao ...

hehehe .. welcome back bro , welcome back

[rich r]

I'm surprised they didn't think of it sooner.

I mean, those people wearing Holister or rash guards out to the clubs need to lend some authenticity to their posuering.

Next will be sand/glitter and seaweed hair accessories.
