Spray It On!
My sweet Mama stopped by the other day and asked if I'd help her do something. And she whipped out a tall spray can.
She said, "I want you to spray this on my hair to cover my roots."
My first thought..."Oh no! She's being sucked in by infomercials now!!"
But, she said WC sold it to her....her renowned hair stylist. That helped my feelings a little.
It's a temporary shampoo-out colored hair spray that you spray on your roots in between colorings. I personally had never ever heard of such...EXCEPT for the pink, green, and blue versions you often see at Halloween and college football games. So, it wasn't completely a foreign concept.
I ran to grab something from my "old" bedroom...and had The Can in my hands. So, while nobody was looking, I decided to see what it'd look like on MY hair....in the event that I, you know, color my hair and just so happened to need a root touch-up or something like that.
Well. I didn't exactly expect it to come out of the can with the strength of a category 5 hurricane.
And I didn't exactly have The Can aimed right, evidenced by the fact that the entire left side of my face was spray painted light brown, including my eye glass lens.
It didn't help matters that I screamed...Ok...I hollered. And the eldest dd came running, quickly, and there was no hiding it. I was a pretty sad mess. No, I didn't take a picture and no, I will not recreate the event for the sake of a picture, either.
I will say that it actually worked beautifully on my mom's hair. It covered her roots and blended with her hair color! And I didn't get it all over her face, thanks in part to a towel she had plastered to her face, near'bout smothering herself.
As for me, I think I'll stick with my current hair care plan....
