I haven't used Oil Sheen prolly since high school. I don't see the point of it. Most of it probably ends up in my lungs instead of on my hair anyway.
Anyway, fast forward to 2008 and I'm driving with some classmates in my car.
One guy, of the fairer persuasion, is particularly nice. He is from Mississippi. He starts telling us about when he used to work on a cruise ship.
He says the best suntan lotion is Afro sheen.
Me: Afro Sheen...like black people use?
Him: Oh yeah, the aerosol...we sprayed it right on!
Yuck. I'm picturing some white folks spraying aerosol cans of oil sheen on their bodies while sitting poolside. I almost drove off the road.
That's gotta cause skin cancer, or lung cancer, or both.
Background: we had to attend a presentation in the neighboring city. Since I was trying to combine trips to save gas, I told the people riding with me that I would be stopping at Sally's beauty supply on the return trip. So I'm up in Sally's with this white guy, and my other classmate. And no he didn't have the nerve to ask me what I bought! Now, he is trying too hard. Like he would know what I was talking about! ummmm not any AfroSheen, how bout that! I politely told him some I bought a jar of relaxer and conditioner.
