Laawwwddd is right! I am laughing so hard…my son just sent this to me….I used to do most of the “do’s” in our community. I would have the people ( mostly teens and twenties) sitting around my house in various stages of “curls”…..They purchased their own kits and I would roll about a thousand of those rods in a day. I charged ten dollars for each head. The thing that really got to me was when I would do someone with very short hair and they believed they were going to look like the person on the front of the box. I can tell you this…I had some very mean and undisciplined teens who came through and in MY house they were polite and I would use this opportunity to talk “real” talk to them. I like to think that some of it stuck…..cause you do not mess with a woman who is putting activator on your head! LOL

There was one that they used to play back in Memphis for Isoplus. If I could find that one, it might beat all of these.
