-
- So step, oh (bleep).
-
- Ow!
-
- Oh God! (groans)
-
- I feel like it would just be faster
-
to wear a hat.
-
- [Voiceover] As seen on TV hair products?
-
- It's hair products that are bought at 11 at night
-
when you're bored and sad.
-
- I honestly don't think any of this stuff
-
will work on my hair.
-
- We both have a lot of hair.
-
- There aren't a lot of women with natural hair
-
in the commercials, but I could be surprised.
-
- You're giving them a lot of credit.
-
- You know, I'm trying to be fair here.
-
- This is when I turned off the TV
-
'cause it was being like, "Are you lacking volume?"
-
- [Together] Nope.
-
- I don't need a Bump It, it bumps itself.
-
- Part hair across the crown of the head.
-
I'm already lost.
-
- Like this?
-
- Yeah.
-
- Okay, here.
-
Did you just drop yours? - Yeah.
-
- Tease from scalp to about three inches high.
-
Wow. - Wait, what?
-
(groaning) - Oh God!
-
- No.
-
- Place Bump It, insert firmly on scalp.
-
- It's in, you've bumped!
-
- I think I did it.
-
- Fan out hair over Bump It,
-
fluff, and even.
-
So basically, the step is, make sure no one can see
-
your damn Bump It.
-
- Oh.
-
- Oh my gosh!
-
- Oh my God.
-
It does not look bad.
-
- I look like a Conehead.
-
- I'm mad.
-
(snapping)
-
- It is hard to do it right, but when you do it's worth it.
-
- [Voiceover] Hairagami?
-
(shouting in surprise)
-
- Oh my God.
-
- Don't do that!
-
- This is actually really clever
-
because I feel like these instructions
-
would immediately get dropped in the toilet.
-
- This is not gonna hold hair.
-
- You just broke yours. - No I didn't, oh I did.
-
- Sandwich hair at the nape of the neck
-
- Sandwich me.
-
- Okay, it's sandwiched.
-
- Wait, wait, wait. - Maybe yours just isn't broken.
-
- No, oh... - Okay.
-
- You know who could probably do this really well,
-
is Shontelle.
-
- Bend the other end up and over the--
-
- [Together] What?
-
- Arrange hair across Hairagami,
-
then pull down.
-
- Oh (bleep).
-
- Oh my God. - Did I do it?
-
- Which style are you going for? - I don't know.
-
(snapping)
-
- Who even thought of this?
-
Who was like, "Oh, I love those snap bracelets,
-
"let's put 'em in my hair."
-
- Was it a man?
-
- Glam Twirl.
-
Create one hundred dazzling hairstyles.
-
- You can wrap it?
-
- Oh my God, there are so many instructions!
-
- I don't even know where to begin.
-
- You're supposed to thread it through the hole.
-
You run it through the hole.
-
You gotta put it in the hole.
-
- I'm so scared. - Yeah, I'm scared, too.
-
- That's a terrible sound.
-
- Should I go up? - (laughing) I don't know.
-
- Maybe we are supposed to keep it,
-
this is so hard (laughing).
-
- I pushed down, I-- (both gasping)
-
- Oh (bleep).
-
- Oh my God.
-
- It's beautiful.
-
- It got caught, it got caught.
-
- I cannot believe that this works.
-
- Yep, not for black people.
-
(snapping)
-
- My hair is worse.
-
- We are adult women, and I still felt
-
like I was in danger about half the time.
-
- Raise your hand if you've been personally victimized
-
by the Bump It.
-
- I like the idea of products that make it easier
-
to do your hair.
-
I just think those were not the products.
-
- Most of them were two person jobs. - Yeah.
-
- You definitely need a friend.
-
- I ripped out so much of my hair.
-
- Really, what we're saying is that
-
these "As seen on TV" products
-
are worthwhile because they can show you
-
who your real friends are.
-
- Real friends don't let your hair get caught
-
in wrap mechanisms.
-
- Ladylike not approved.
-
- Yeah, I mean to be fair,
-
that one strand is really curled.
-
- 78 strands to go.
