CLIP-IN BANGS: Infomercial Review


Here's a news flash for you: Nobody is what they appear to be. Everyone when they are their "real self" looks differently from how they look in person. I thought about this recently, because I was told that:

· William Shatner, even when he was Captain Kirk, was wearing a toupee.

· Same goes for Ted Danson when he was Sam Malone on Cheers and Ron Howard when he was Richie Cunningham on Happy Days.

· Half the middle-aged guys you see on TV who seem to have an okay figure are actually wearing a girdle to pull the flab in.

This revelation shattered my view of the world, that many of my childhood heroes were bald, until I realized: None of us in public look like we do when by ourselves. One look in the mirror in the morning, with my hair pointing all directions, confirms this. So why shouldn't we do our best to look good in public?

Which leads to my main point: there's a new product, advertised on late-night TV, called Clip-In Bangs. They are similar to extensions, but they clip in the front of your hair. They instantly give a lady bangs that completely change her appearance. Is it really how she looks? No--but that's ok. I have a sister who bought Clip-In Bangs and she almost looked like a different person. She looked absolutely amazing.

Hey, we brush our teeth, ladies wear lipstick, guys wear higher shoes to appear to be taller. So I'm all in favor of a gal wearing Clip-In Bangs to give her a new look. I think that once you see how great they look, you'll be a fan, too.

SHAMPAW: Infomercial Review


Well normally I like to start off by kinda making fun of the infomercial about whatever product it may be. However, with this one, I really just don’t know where to start. I guess, firstly, this has got to be one of the cheapest made infomercials ever. I wonder how much someone got paid to come up with the idea of having an attractive girl sit there and just say the same thing over, and over again. There wasn’t even the narrator guy with the cool deep voice that every other infomercial seems to use. Definitely felt as though something were lacking a bit with this one. Ok, so maybe that was a few things and not just one but wow, this one is easy. Another thing I noticed is that if you pay close attention about half way through, the girl is talking about how she can keep both hands on the dog so he doesn’t shake and get her all wet while washing him, well right as she says that you can tell the dog is winding up for a really good shake and right before he does, the camera changes. Way to go editor at making sure the product does what you say it does.

All joking aside, I think this product is pretty cool. If you know anyone who likes to bathe their dog all the time, like my parents, I swear it is like their new child, then this Shampaw would be the perfect gift. I think it is pretty cool how you just attach the hose to the glove and your ready to go. Not that the infomercial informed me of that, remember, very cheaply made but one can infer that.

Iron Anywhere: Infomercial Review


So lets get this straight. The makers of Iron Anywhere are trying to market a product based on the difficulty and time wasted on setting up a regular ironing board? Well, not exactly what I would call the best marketing scheme but maybe it will work for them. The Iron Anywhere is an interesting concept however. Instead of storing a ironing board in closet or something of that matter, all one has to do is get this little mat out and lay it down on any surface. Hence the name Iron Anywhere. I really cant think of anything to make fun of about this product. That makes me sad actually. It is so simple yet useful if you ask me. I am not the once who is concerned with lifting a fifteen pound ironing board out of the closet but if I don’t have to, then heck, I think I am sold on that premise alone. But wait, as with any good infomercial offer, there’s more.

Watch Video

If you were to order within the next umpteen minutes or so, you will not only get the wonder that is Iron Anywhere, but you will also get two, count them with me now, two dryer balls. That’s right, two walnut sized dryer balls that make your linens come out fluffier. And now you don’t have to spend all that money on costly chemicals, with your own set of lint grabbing dryer balls, you will never have a stiff towel again. I love the fact that they made them blue too.

KITTY BIN: Infomercial Review


Have you seen the commercial for that new product, Kitty Bin? Let me explain the concept and then give you my take on it. Kitty Bin is this storage container that allows you to keep your litter box clean, and empty it into the trash once a week rather than once or twice a day. This container holds the dirty litter without any smell leaking out or without even giving a visual clue of what's inside of it. We lazy people of the world rejoice at an innovation like this.

I can't help but think, however, that Kitty Bin was created by that little boy who never grew up, who was always storing things that appalled his mother when she found out. You know the boy I'm talking about. He had dead crickets and beetles that he stored in a box just because they looked neat. Or he had 20 clumps of bubble gum stuck to the bottom of his bed, so he could resume chewing it again in the morning. Or he hid that partially-eaten donut inside his toy chest so that he could come back and finish it later in the day--but forgot about it until two or three months later. That's the kind of person who would say "Hey let's make a container to store soiled kitty litter."

Even though many of you have an appalled look on your face right now, you secretly know how great of an idea that Kitty Bin is. You can owners who keep Kitty inside have gotten just as annoyed as I have at the mess that he can make. Kitty Bin helps relieve you of some of this stress, and a lot of mess, so it gets my high recommendation.
