What a discovery I made today!!!!!


Oh my God, I can't believe what I discovered today...I had to share with all of you...if any of my sisters out there "enhance" their hair like I do, hope this helps you.
I decided this morning that today was the day to "enhance" my hair...mind you I didn't say color as I have no grays to hide (roflmao) rather I enhance the natural highlights in my otherwise drab hair. I'm a licensed cosmetologist, but that doesn't help when I'm doing my own hair. As Marilyn said this week when she was getting a bath from her water heater, picture Lucy and Ethel "enhancing" their hair and you can imagine what I do when I'm doing mine. I have to literally line the floor, vanity and anything else in site when I'm applying Nice N Easy #117 to my hair. Well, anyway, when I was almost done applying the color I noticed a spot on my sink and wanted to get it off before it stained it permanently. I picked up a new Mr Clean Eraser and took off the mark....hmmmm, at this point I have color all over my hairline, ears, and some unfortunately on my arms and neck......what the heck, if Mr Clean works on walls and everything else, why not try it on me! OH MY GOD IT WORKED LIKE A MIRACLE! No stains on me anywhere!!!!!!! Just a lil swipe and all traces of unwanted signs of color were gone.... now to contact Mr Clean and tell them my good news.....had to share it with all of you, and hope you got a good chuckle out of my experience too...
Hugs,
Marie
