Retrophilia: Crazy Hair
retrophilia (ret troh FEE lee uh) n. 1 An intense attraction for things of the past. 2 a weekly series for popsucker wherin the irrepressible Wootini reveals the horrors of the past to the present to avoid making the same mistakes in the future.
This lovely woman is Colleen Callaghan, hairstylist to the stars. And she's featured in an ad working on some hair to promote a line of haircare products. But you know how certain celebrities are obvious choices to model for shampoos and such? You know, like Farrah Fawcett? Yeah, the person you'll find after the jump is a much less likely candidate for hair model...
See what I mean? I see what they're going for with the whole "impossible hair" thing, but using Phyllis Diller to sell hair products? Really?
Hell, even she looks surprised to see herself in this ad!
And I'm sorry, but that hair doesn't look remotely "soft and natural looking." In any way, shape or form. Good try, though!
