Yet Another Hair Care Product Causes Women to Orgasm

vo5_oh_my_god.jpg

Not quite as blunt as the long-running Herbal Essence campaign which has no problem trying to make us believe its hair care products will give women thunderous orgasms, this new Euro RSCG London-created campiagn for VO5 Hot Oil more subtly eludes the the notion, somehow, hair care products do, in fact, give women orgasms.

The print campaign, with headlines like, “It took my by surprise in the shower,” The best 60 seconds in my life, “I glowed afterwards, ” It hasn’t felt this good in ages” and “Oh. My. God,” aims to “reinvent the cult status of VO5 Hot Oil as a miracle product in a manner similar to that women’s exercise product on Mad Men which, yes, gave women orgasms.

VO5 Global Marketing Director Vicky Metcalfe is all aglow herself about the campiagn saying, “We were very excited about this campaign as soon as the idea was presented. We love the impact of the gorgeous hair close ups combined with the bold and evocative statements that make you smile and want to know more.”

Indeed. Does it work for men too? We need a fair amount of hair care product-induced enjoyment ourselves.

I’m 65 and I didn’t have a word for what my mother was until I was 43 and a therapist said “narcissistic traits” and the room went quiet — not because the word was shocking but because it was organizing, like someone had handed me a filing system for 40 years of experiences that I’d been storing in a pile on the floor, and the relief of that word was immediately followed by the grief of realizing I’d spent four decades thinking the problem was me

Research suggests people who rarely felt loved as a child and now have nearly zero close friends at 65 aren’t repeating a pattern of rejection — they’re running the only software their childhood installed, which is that closeness is conditional, people leave, and the safest number of people to depend on is none, and that program is still running because nobody taught them how to update it

Behavioral scientists found that people who were overly criticized growing up often become less likeable as they get older — not because their personality deteriorates but because the exhaustion of performing acceptability for 50 years eventually exceeds the energy available, and the “difficult” person their family describes is often just someone who finally stopped auditioning for approval that was never going to be granted unconditionally

I’m 73 and my husband planned a cruise for our 50th anniversary and by the second evening I was standing on the deck looking at the ocean and crying—not because I was unhappy but because I’d expected to feel something enormous and instead I felt exactly the same as I do in my kitchen, and the realization that geography doesn’t fix the thing that’s wrong when the thing that’s wrong is internal was the most expensive lesson I’ve ever been taught in a bathrobe

Research suggests the simple act of eating a meal without your phone has become one of the most radical things a person can do for their mental health — not because the phone is harmful, but because the meal without it is the only daily occasion most people have left to exist without being reachable

The generation that was never allowed to be tired, never allowed to be lost, never allowed to need anything from anyone is now sitting in quiet houses in their late 60s and 70s wondering why a lifetime of being needed by everyone left them feeling known by no one
