Here's a link to their website, they grade everything pretty hard and there are many products listed.

Off topic, but we must be from the same area! I love to watch KFVS 12 and Does It Work Wednesdays. It's kept me from buying some pretty wretched things...

It can be uncomfortable depending on the kind of strap and if it slid too far up, it would kind of make the straps cut in to me. Does Perfect Strap have that problem?

Perfect Strap

It slides up - I make sure to put it below the buckles on the individual straps so it can't go up too far. I haven't had a problem with straps digging in even when it does ride up a little - and it is very easy to pull down.

I bought Perfect strap at Bed, Bath, & Beyond in february right before my trip to LA. I love it! It took some getting used to, but it really does work I think.

Okay, I actually bought the ShamWow. I don't know. It didn't seem to soak things up any better than an ordinary towel.



I'll tell you what does work...MIGHTY PUTTY! I love this stuff.

Mighty putty does work! It fixed my son's car, my car, our vacuum, and it really does seal a leaky a garden hose!

I bought the Bump Its. I have thick hair but it's very fine and when I straighten it it always lays flat. I tried the two sizes it comes with and I just didn't have enough hair to 1- keep it in and 2- cover the plastic. I haven't tried the little Bump It they include for bangs.

How funny! I'm originally from New Madrid Co., MO. I live in Florida now, but I still go to the KFVS12 website every Thursday to see what was on Does It Work Wednesday! *LOL*
