I Simply Must Go Pubic About This Hair Dye
I forgot how I got there, but I recently discovered a pretty awesome new blog (that’s been around for a year and a half, I see): Strange New Products.
What are the three most recent posts about: buttplugs moulded in the likeness of famous people, beer and champagne in the same bottle and a diaper harness for your dog (dog diapers sold separately, I assume).
Then, of course, there’s the dye for your pubic hair.
Apparently many hair salons have made the practice of providing women with a brown bag of hair coloring to match the coloring they just got put on their heads. A woman named Nancy Jarecki decided why not sell a product like this over-the-counter.
Unlike the zillions of hair dyes in the average drugstore, Betty Beauty only makes five colours–brown, blonde, black, auburn and, uh, fun (that’s pink). I guess colour matching isn’t that critical, given that the hair down there is likelier to only be seen in low-light conditions?

I guess you don’t visit Wreck Beach then?

You know what’s weird? I just read about Betty Beauty products yesterday in “Bitch magazine”. Strange coincidence.
