- I have new eyeglasses, they are RayBans, and their style is drawn from men's glasses from the 1960s.
- My wife convinced me to go to the boys' school halloween dinner.
- This requires me to go as something or someone.
- My new eyeglasses gave me an idea...
- My idea is to go in the more or less standard uniform of the 1960s NASA engineer or flight controller.
Do you notice the sculpted hair of those that have need of a comb, that is? I figure they were using some sort of hair dressing, probably a petroleum jelly based dressing.
Accordingly, I now have a tub of Royal Crown hair dressing, which I will use to put my hair like a proper NASA engineer:
I tried a small, very small, dab of that stuff the other day. And, I can tell you it really does work well. It makes hair stay right where you put it.
I have a few suspicions and questions about its use though:
I suspect you never want to use too much. Probably the minimum that will do what one wants from it.
Washing it out seems like it may be a problem. As far as I know, not too many soaps cut petroleum jelly. I read a couple comments on blogs where people remove it with olive oil, then wash out the olive oil. This sounds, well, complicated. For some years now, I have been only washing my hair with water. I think if I use this stuff regularly, that will have to change.
Did these guys wash it out each day, do you think? If they didn't, what about their pillow cases? Or, their hats? In my case, I ride a bike to work. The inside of my bike helmet would get disgusting in no time, I suspect.
The stuff gives a good look, but getting it out may make it not worth the benefit. Does anyone here use this stuff regularly? How do you manage it?
