My exgirlfriend introduced me to the Garnier Fructis line of products and I love them so much I just had to share. My fav of the line, Fiber Gum Putty. The stuff smells fruiticiously great, holds throughout the day with a great shine, and washes completely clean. A dab on the palm, rub to activate the fruit fibers, then apply to wet or dry hair. A little goes a long way. Best of all, like the other Fructis products, you can find them nearly everywhere for as low as $2.

I don't use product in my hair. I have thin, nongreasy hair, but it stays where I want it to. It's really wonderful.

For Shampoo and Conditioner I use Infusium 23. Wonderful stuff.

Thinks his PR is better than yours.
I use the same stuff (Garnier), works great and smells nice.

When I wanna do some crazy shit to my hair though, it's all about I.C.E Spiker.

That's what my barber used to use, so I figure it must be good.

I have cheap as fuck gel at the moment, it does the job. It is noticably better when I get the more expensive products though. Not in terms of the look, just in terms of the amount of time it takes me to do it and ease of removal etc.

$2 is what I'd call cheap ass but this Fiber Putty stuff is far from cheap ass. Give it a try next time.

Yeah, but that's like a fifth of the size of my bottle.

Still, I might pick some up if I remember when this one runs out.

Hrm.. they had a ton of this stuff at the lotus festival in los angeles a while ago. I was hesitant to try the products because I never heard of their company before, so I have most of the shampoo to my friends. I won a stack of the stuff when I played some mini-game of theirs a while back. Maybe I should give it a shot.

I use my own semen. I have a jar of it in my bathroom.
 
i have a jar of that Garnier Fructus shit. Its alright, but does crust up a little. My hair's kinda long now, so i prefer to use a Wax Pomade. more natural looking and doesn't get all hard and shit.
 
Yeah I use the OP's product or American Crew pomade. Depends on how long the hair is.

Has anyone tried the "Tea Tree" line of shampoo/conditioner from Paul Mitchell? The tingle feeling is great!

I too prefer a pomade. American Crew is nice.

Anyone else hate the word "product"? How did this get to be the official way to refer to hair shit? Someone needs to standardize a term that doesn't suck.
 
i use toni and guy products, but mostly every weekend i get my hair done at toni and guy´s salon cause is free for me.

but if i fix my hair at home i use toni and guy products.
i usually dont have alot of it in my hair as i want my hair to look like i dont have products in it at all.

I tried that new spray-on gel they came out with, and it's got to be the most innovative hair product on the market:

I usually just spray it on damp hair, and it applies just like gel. It's perfect.

I use that Fructis Surf Hair stuff, because my hair's gotten way too long. Hair still stays flat but it's a bit more matte looking and has more texture.

I use L'oreal Professionel Ahead Gel when my hair is shorter, really great stuff. Expensive as fuck though, £8 from my salon. Almost as much as a haircut, but at least it's lasted me a good few months.

How about shampoo and conditioner? I swear, no matter what I do, my hair is always dry and frizzy for like five hours after blow-drying.

I use this stuff every day. It's fantastic. I used to need a shot of hair spray when I used other hair gels, to make usre it would hold all day. This stuff doesn't need that. It works great.

Edit: Pantene Pro V for shampoo and conditioner, seperate of course.

My hair sucks. It's really thick, nongreasy, but goes crazy. It's straight then it curls up like a cat. Gel doesnt work, so I just try to keep it pretty short, but I'm too lazy and it's too expensive to get it cut often.

When I feel like getting shnazzy, I use this:

Followed by some hairspray for extra hold.

For shampoo and conditioner I use Herbal Essences.

I also recently bleached my black hair so it looks sort of bronze now, I like it though.

"You'll be paying me only 9 easy, monthly payments of $14.95 after I sue you for using my lines."

As for haircut products, I'm actually in the market to try something new. Maybe I'll give this stuff a whirl.

My hair is long, so I let it do what it wants as long as it's straight enough and not crazy or anything.

I've seen the American Crew pomade - looks interesting. I'll probably give that a try when this stuff runs out.

Sometimes I just use gel too.

What in the fuck is Hair Paste...I heard its like hair gel, but doesn't make your hair hard and nasty. If so, sign me up (as long as the price is right).

Yes, the entire Fructis line is great and very healthy for your hair. Except for the hair spray, almost all hair spray is bad for your hair.

Bought that Fructis stuff last night, and tried it out today. It's actually really good stuff. Holds well, and has a decent smell. Plus you can't beat the $2.99 price. 9/10.
