That's because Wella is sh*te as well .

Forget that stuff and get yourself down to a decent hairdresser and get some of the gear they use. It costs more, but it tends to last a lot longer and doesn't leave crap in your hair. If you're feeling rich, use Sebastian - very good. Tigi is good too and slightly cheaper. **** do some good stuff as well and you can get that from any high street Boots etc.

Not shure if I'd want to get FCUKed by a high street Boot!
The **** isn't bad stuff and it's probably still on 3 for 2 at Boots.

Shave your head. Much cheaper!

I use Brylcreem but always buy it at the market or on special offer so it costs <£2. If your that tight I think Tesco do a value gel for about 40p

When i had hair to gel/wax, nearly 10 years ago, i used to get the dax wax or black and white from the hairdressers, decent stuff, not cheap then. !! now, nice smooth dome, just costs a fortune in G2 turbo blades.

I use something called clay, made by Sebastian or something... it's like wax only you need alot less, its drier, and costs about £30 for a little tub. Mind you, it lasts me about a year

Thumbs up

This isn't thick it all, you put a little bit in the palm of your hand, rub it into both hands (you can hardly see it by this point as there's so little there), then rub vigorously into hair. Works a treat. It's called Sebastian Crude Clay, and only costs $20 online
