Fudge is aptly named.
For those of you who have never used this stuff before, just try and imagine removing the gooey contents from each chocolate in a box of Terry's All Gold and smearing substantial quantities of the accummulated goo onto your head. And then going to work. Weird, huh?
It’s actually nowhere near as bad as it sounds. For a start, doing this endears you to virtually anybody who gets within sniffing distance of your cranium during the day, and secondly, Geez, can this stuff ever hold? I mean, seriously. You could go free-fall parachute jumping with this stuff in your hair and touch the ground looking like you just walked away from the mirror. Slightly shakier and with different coloured underwear than when you started out, but not a follicle out of place.
O.K, so it holds like an electromagnet and it smells like an explosion in a confectioners. What else does it do? Well, frankly, that’s a lot more than I’ve ever got out of any other hair care product I’ve ever tried. Anything else is periferal. And, indeed, that’s exactly what the makers of Fudge have been banking on. It does exactly what you’ve wanted each of the 48 tubs of wax and gel on your bedside table to achieve but never have, plus it smells so good that people want to eat your head. Not only that, but it comes in a groovy orange tub.
It’s a little pricey (at the “HOW MUCH???” end of the sub-£10 bracket) and is not too fond of water (both pre- or post-application), but really, it truly is worth it. This stuff means that you can actually flick through the pictures in a hair magazine and realistically say, “Yeah, I could do that”. And that’s not usually possible without rubbing a balloon on your head.
And it smells a whole lot better…
I just thought I'd add a little extra here. There are several different types of fudge, with different strength ratings. The one I've been using has a strength rating of 3 (Hair Shaper). I tried the strength 2 stuff but it really doesn't cut it quite the same, and lacks that wonderful bubblegummy texture when you scoop the glop onto your fingers that strength 3 has. Strength 2 might be OK for some styles, but if your hair is as resilient and straight as mine, then you might want to try the sticky stuff. Just make sure you have a wet cloth or a sink close by, because your hand is gonna be looking like somebody sneezed on it immediately after Fudge application!

Good opinion! It does sound a little pricey though!! Roberts

gawd I know what you mean about the price it's always put me off but I have recently had my hair cut really short so I'm in desperate need of something to stop it sticking up.

Everybody loves this stuff! I've got long hair but I always wanted to dred it for a night out - this might do the job then!
