sociology, hair jizz and Target
I stopped at Target today on my way to a secret thesis writing location with no wireless internet (So I cant do what I'm doing now instead of writing) because I needed hair jizz and zippy freezer bags.
What do I see as I walk past cosmetics to the hair care isle, but starter packs of Bare Minerals makeup....
Most people would not think this odd, but I use and love this product and always felt it of the SES level to demand a trip to the Florida Mall to obtain a new foundation. Perhaps this is snotty of me, but lets equate it with seeing Clinique at wal-mart.
Shaking off my shock I proceed to the hair care isle to pick out my new jizz. I might mention that I call the product I use "Hair Jizz" because its viscosity, color and other visible features cause it to look remarkably like... well... jizz for lack of a more colorful term.
Once obtaining previously mentioned curl defining cream, I turned the isle and discovered.... AN ENTIRE SECOND ISLE OF HAIR SHIT. Seriously, they have to devote TWO isles to hair stuff? Upon closer inspection I realized that Isle 1 of hair stuff was the traditional isle with generic products. I'm talking brands like Suave, Panteen, Herbal Essences and the like. The newly discovered Isle 2 was stocked with salon quality products that had absurd price tags. This is where they hid the Matrix, Paul Mitchell, Redken and Chi products.
The experience left me puzzled- do people who spend $18 on a bottle of hairspray REALLY shop at Target?
As I walked to my car, I noticed that the owner of a burgundy jaguar had parked next to me. The parking lot was full of BMW's, Lexus', Mercedes and Jaguar's. Have the Fords and Hondas moved to Wal-Mart? Is the economy really that bad?
I would write more, but have been writing for the better part of a week and my fingers be sleepy.
On a more constructive note, the Intro for my Thesis be written. First draft at least. Woot.
