Kenra Volume hairspray: How to find a cheaper version
SRG says…Is there a cheaper substitute for Kenra Volume 25 hair spray? The website claims its an excellent anti-humidity spray. The product has great reviews on Amazon. It’s a little expensive though and I’m wondering if I could find a similar but cheaper version.
The Beauty Brains respond:
According to their website, Kenra uses “An advanced non-flaking resin that provides maximum hold and curl retention” and has Aminomethyl Propanol (AMP) which is “a neutralizing agent that improves the re-wetting / re-styling ability of the hair.”
Where oh where could we possibly find another hai...

Did Type 2 Diabetes Have Anything to Do With Taking My Father Away?
By Jan Chait

A sad old dog
Mrs Grumble's dog is getting old. It's sad when your dog gets old. She has begun to get those sorts of terrible things old people get. One of the worst is wetting the carpet.

Another curious thing is that she has been drinking a lot - vast quantities. Yes, Dr Grumble thought of diabetes. Mrs Grumble managed to catch some urine and there was no glucose. Even odder she has become ravenously hungry and has begun stealing food. She never us...
