What. a little dab will do you is all about?
When I was in junior high, I was sporting a flat top DA. Do you remember what the DA stood for?

Brylcreem hair cream. AKA greasy kid stuff. Brings back some old, long repressed memories.
It allowed guys too keep their Ducks Ass (DA) haircuts in place. Think John Travolta in "Grease".

I don't think those hairdo's were from Brylcreem. I remember my sisters hairdos and they used Aqua net hair spray for that.
Brylcreem would have held the hair down and made it flat, and slicker'n snot on a doorknob.
You live in a house with 4 women and 1 bathroom, you'd have bad memories of it too.

That was in reply to Patria's comment on big hairdos.
But yeah, half a can of Aquanet and might as well be wearing a helmet!

I'm ROTF
Who would've guessed that it took Brill cream to get a couple of you guys posting.
I'm so bloody old my face looks like a New Jersey roadmap.

Noooo, and having to sleep with curlers!
Oh and my comment was meant to Dave's "long repressed memories" but I see now I wasn't clear enough...
