Actual Ads: Thrilling Beauty News - Liquid Shampoo!


Here are our 3 favorite things about this old ad:

1) The step-by-step picture diagram showing you how to comb your hair (in case you don't have a mirror, I guess).

2) The fact that the product is in a GLASS bottle. (Wet shower + slippery foam + breakable glass bottle = trip to emergency room.)

3) The way they make such a big deal about the shampoo NOW! being available in a liquid, lotion form. What were they using before? Powdered shampoo?? Bar soap?? (Yeah, maybe they were, this ad is pretty old!)
