Added to minimalist Description:
When something is "Hair-Raising", one could add special effect by having "Hair Raised". This could be by Static Charge, etc.

I don't know what this means, but it's baked.

You just want to join the cool people in the "Fashion: Hair Accessories" category.

You talkin' about hair gel?

Do they raise hair by Static Charge though?

Does anyone know where they get the human hair they sell? The websites I listed ain't telling.

<ob on-topic>In the early 60s, they used special hair support forms to achieve beehive hairdos. Gel substitutes: soap, sugar water.</ob on-topic>

Two for pottedstu:

* I knew a girl who walked into a salon, got her long, thick, curly dark 'do redone into a chin-length bob, and walked out five thousand dollars richer.

* For the best hair-raising substance known to popular culture, see "There's Something About Mary", c. 1998.

Baked, if unwieldy: Van de Graaf generator. Go to just about any kids' science museum (Science Centers, here, or the Magic House if you're near St Louis come to mind)... really nice. Just be careful that you follow the directions of the nice man operating it...

Yes, but I want a pocket-size device to achieve this. call it 'Sparki 2002' if you like, heh.

pottedstu, Peter is correct - the hair used for extensions etc. comes from Asia, ie, from heads of people living in Asian countries.

Well just thought I'd comment since my girlfriend and I have had some damn serious hair experiences lately and we may have established the perfect recipe to whip up normal straight hair into a 60's-style, frenzied beehive. Just pile into the back seat of your favorite vehicle with leather seats and have at it for an hour or two! It must be the combination of static electricity, being in a sauna, and just sorta aggressive mechanical action! Do remember to use the remote key pendant when you want to leave the vehicle and admire your fresh new hairstyle in public. And be prepared for comments! Enjoy !!!
