I wouldn't! like I said, I've not tested that one lol!

and I'm kind of assuming the cornflour thing, it said talc, but it was an american site so that could mean cornflour... or talc as we know it. grrr. one language separated by the atlantic lol!

It's definitely talc. Cornflour and a drop of rain might produce interesting hairstyles.

[mrsflibble]

hahahahaha! wouldn't talc also form a paste though?! and you're meant to brush the whole lot out... I'm still trying to find where i read this in the first place...

It's a 70s hippy trick (oh, I was there!). Instead of having dirty greasy hair, it makes you look as though you have dirty dry hair. Which was true.

[Millymollymandy]

Is that just dry shampoo?

[mrsflibble]

not sure if it is, probably

here's one version on how to do it

If British talc refers to a powdery white mineral, then they're the same talc.

I think sometimes we need an English-to-English translator, lol!

We do Ellendra, only I'm not sure where the thread is. It was very funny, full of American, Australian, Scottish and English English!

I'll have a quick look.
