Don't Move
My mom had hair like this
I can actually conjure up the smell of the Aqua Net
There were cans of Aqua Net on my grandmother's dressing table as well.
And yesterday I did something I swore I would NEVER do
It was picture day for my son's school, and
in an effort to attempt to make sure his sticky-uppy hair stayed in place
for just for the 15 minutes or so it took to get to school and have the photo taken,
I decided to just use a "little bit" of hairspray.
Sadly, I accidentally sprayed some on his face
I swore when my mother did that to me for my school pictures
I would NEVER do that to my children
His eyes were closed, but still...I totally know the feeling of sticky face after hairspray overload
ugh
I felt bad
I don't think it smells like Aqua Net used to smell
But nevertheless, it's that horrible sticky-skin, crinkling when you attempt to talk and smile
I don't think I got it on his eyelashes though
That would have been much worse
I remember blinking excessively for hours before they felt soft and natural again.
Actually, he probably would have liked that part.
Here's to Hair Spray!
It did do the job
but I felt bad.
