Woman mistakes builders foam for hair mousse

Seen on another board... too funny.

What an idiot. That stuff is nasty on skin and clothes. I'd hate to think of putting in my hair.

Wow, yeah, that stuff sticks better than a lot of glues out there. I think the only fix for that was going to be a carving knife, maybe some sandpaper and paint.

Good thing Porsche doesn't make foam, or they would be sued.

An update on the Paul Walker Porsche situation.

I really have to wonder about that story. The photo clearly shows foam in her hair. Why are her hands not just blocks of foam. I would love to see the real story. When & where did this happen, and what is her name? It just screams BS internet story.

Is it OK to laugh at someone's mistake? ... LOL... And she'll be sporting a crew cut.

She needs that like a hole in the head. Perhaps she did have a hole in the head.
Cuts down on the drafts.

Yeah, there is more to this. Another site mentioned the leaves in her hair. Looking closer, there is a stick running through it all. At very least she rolled on the ground or something. I wouldn't be surprised if she was passed out drunk on someone's lawn, and was taught a "lesson" by another drunk domestic after being told to leave several times. Tough to speculate. Would be interesting to know the whole story. Funny pic though!

Something fishy about this story. Does she look like the sort of woman who uses hair gel? I'll bet someone did this to her as a prank or punishment.

Backstory:

The goop is called "structural folic enhancement gel". It is an shopped photo that has been on the web since the 30's. It is the "Before" for a Carmen Miranda photo shoot.

Before:



After:



Homework, people, homework.

That is some amazing Photoshop work to make an old hag homeless person look like Carmen Miranda.

We are talking about her hair, not her face..
