Up All Night is an ultra-light foam that works over time for maximum body and lift. This product is enhanced with Omega-rich nutrients and glycerin to nurture hair for a healthier look and feel. Apply a generous amount to wet hair after using your Biomega shampoo and conditioner. For maximum lift, apply additional product to the root area. Section hair and blow style from the roots, lifting hair away from the scalp.

Firm and Fabulous is a conditioning hairspray with a layerable extra-fine mist. This product is enriched with Omega-rich nutrients to condition hair leaving it ultra-shiny and frizz-free. Use Firm and Fabulous on dry hair and apply in layers if building or creating style. Also use after hair is freshly-styled to lock in place and fight frizz. Spray from 10-12 inches away in short, even bursts. The further away from the head the product is applied, the drier the spray.

a blonde joke for football season

a guy decides to bring his new blonde girlfriend to a football game.
after the game is over, he asked her if she liked the game.

she replies, "oh the game was great, i loved watching the guys in tight clothes, but there's one thing i don't understand."

"what didn't you understand?"

the blonde says, "well at the beginning of the game, both teams flipped a quarter to see who would kick off first. then the rest of the game everyone was yelling 'get the quarter back, get the quarter back, get the quarter back'.....so i thought to myself, gosh, it's just a quarter!"
