I bought fancy shampoo again in an attempt to improve the quality of my life (the more expensive your beauty products are, the more you have it together, duh) and the name is disturbing:

“Poo,” in this instance, is referring to sulfates, which supposedly “strip your hair of all its natural nutrients,” whatever the F that means. I jokingly asked the woman at the beauty store if she thought that was a very wise marketing strategy and she had no opinion. I think my comedic observation shtick actually got on her DAMN nerves. I’m all, “Who’s gonna buy something with the word, ‘poo’ on the front, am I right?!?!” and she’s all, “Um, yeah, the women who come in here with curly hair seem to like it. Do you want it or not?” So I bought it. My curls are no more or less lustrous. Duped again. And $40 poorer.
