Need horrible hairspray

  • tesco value.... ideal for diy tasks. fearsome in hair.
  • if you can get some old fashioned setting lotion and pour it into a spray bottle it is like liquid superglue. hair gets that worrying crunch sound. You can get it in small bottles in pharmacies. it is amazing stuff. I would wager it could work amazingly well. (and no nasty aerosols and does not stink at all, it has low odour.)

    Thanks folks. Shame you can't still get that 'orrible stinky lacquer in the refillable squeezy bottles that the girls used to use on their beehive hairdos in the 1960s.

    You can! If you know anyone who has a membership card to Sallys Salon Services or other hairdressing supplies, you can buy it in there in 5L bottles.

    Horrible stuff! *shudder*
