"Hairstylists recommend using copious amounts of gel, wax, or K-Y Jelly to ensure your hair stays looking as wet as your face does all day."
From a piece at the The Cut about "all the wet-hair looks that walked at Milan Fashion Week": "Models wore hair that ranged from sopping-wet to kind-of-sweaty, adding some much-needed variety and versatility to the general 'wet-hair look.'"

I like imagining an old-school magazine editor who doesn't get modern fashion shows:
"Why don't they smile? They should look happy to be wearing the nice clothes, right? Smile, damn it!"
As a general rule, hot women can do whatever they want.
Men will forgive them.
I don't have much hair left to get wet anymore : )
I always thought that if you have K-Y Jelly in your hair it means that something has gone dreadfully wrong.
What happens when white people try Soul-Glow.
It appears Guido-fashion is now mainstream.
For when you want that my-parents-drowned-me-in-the-well look from "The Ring" but without the inconvenience of eternal malevolent haunting.
“The wet head is dead.”
I remember that ad campaign. Shows my age.
My uncle used to wear his hair slicked back. But he kept it combed, which appears to something these models know nothing about. Their hair is hideous!
It doesn't look wet, it just looks greasy. Like the new thing is for models to not shower for a week before a show.
The tropical rainforest look. "Appear as if you too have spent your day in a hot, humid, jungle, chased by aboriginal headhunters! Endorsed by Lara Croft."
For models, is the cost of these products deductible?
Also useful for sticking your own head up your ass.
I must run right out and get some bearing grease to put on my hair. Nothing could look wetter. It's time we return to the "Alfafa" slicked down look. Very sophisticated.
Moist hair to match our mask-moistened faces. Yuck.
Best two sentence combo I will read today:
The quickest way to social peace is to unplug the internet and shutter the public affairs shows on television. If all of a sudden people had to go across town to tell someone that they did not like their politics, they would not do it.
Next year maybe partially rotten hair and faces. COVID and zombie chic.
For that just-hatched look.
The Antifa look.
Wear Black Bloc. It's slimming.
Perhaps this is a recognition that, heads up our asses, maybe some lubricant will assist extraction.
If K-Y isn't available, there's always the back-up Cameron Diaz used in "Something about Mary".
Too bad everyone can't have the damp, smooth, plump, glistening, slippery, rubbery, reflective skin of a dolphin, like I do.
Plus, wet t-shirts and air conditioners!
Can I get a bottle of Vitalis anywhere?
If I don’t wash my hair for two days, I can get that exact same look.
<> - Napoleon
Milan is my go-to north star.
More standard lowering from the left.
Thanks for that.
"What about Mary?" head works as well.
Is there a 'There's Something About Mary' joke in here somewhere?
So International Fashion is now following the lead of the WWE wrestlers. Hopefully, they will start hitting each other the head with chairs next.
Why go full Diller?
And yet "blow-dried" is the mark of superficiality?
I remember when the wet head died:...
I do, too! I also remember the pornstache, center-parted, feathered sides horror that followed.
Valentino look coming back. Only the crazies, though.
"I always thought that if you have K-Y Jelly in your hair it means that something has gone dreadfully wrong."
Hmmm.....I took it the opposite way.
Carpet matches the curtains.
greasy kid's stuff?
The Wet Head will die again at some point in the future.
Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering silmite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king!
Dennis interrupting: Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government! Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony! Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you! Oh but if I went 'round sayin' I was Emperor, just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!
Appropriate for the context: Ed Grimley interview. Note: keep away from open flames.
If you live south of Atlanta, just a quick walk around at lunch during the summer and you'll get the same effect.
Haven’t put anything on my hair besides the cheapest shampoo I can find Since I was 12 and my hair is freakishly awesome.
Oh, and I wash it every time I take a shower.
She's got that wet cat look.
If you have the face of a Milan runway model, the wet and dry looks both flatter.
Bryle-Creem par excellence. My grandmother had to put those doilies on the couches and such when my uncle came over, as he was probably customer #1 for that brand in the 60's and 70's. Men's hair care is incredibly simple, get a high and tight, or if that's too extreme, do a #2 blade on the side, and a #3 on the top, tapered in the back of course, nothing looks stupider than a block cut in my opinion. Done. Lasts up to 3 months or so for me, then go to a barber school, so students can practice, costs less than half than a regular barber will charge you, and with this style, they really can't screw it up.
Not been a fan of "fashion" for quite a while, now, but this is just actually nasty. Kind of like the actor in LOTR who played Aragorn who spent the whole trilogy just looking, well, STICKY. As in, if you touched him you'd not only leave a visible fingerprint, but come away with some unspeakable residue on your finger.
Brylcreem, a little dab'll do ya.
Memories of my father with his curly, curly hair slicked down using Brylcreem, or Vitalis, and a simple black plastic comb. That and the chain-smoked Viceroy cigarettes. So long ago. I wish I'd known him longer.
K-Y Jelly is a whole lot cheaper than the $70K that Donald Trump claimed to have paid to Ivanka's favorite hairdresser.
Fernandinande, I am intrigued...
Listen. I live in a suburb of Houston and I look like this daily for about five months of the year, when I get back from taking the dog for a walk. I have never considered it a consummation devoutly to be wished. Gentlemen - yes, the women are hot. But think of what it would be like to, you know, touch any of that. Ick.
Another aspect of the Culture of Fake for decent people to despise.
At least that crazy eyebrow fad ended.
"Y'know the thing about a shark, he's got... lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eyes."
" My grandmother had to put those doilies on the couches and such when my uncle came over, as he was probably customer #1 for that brand in the 60's and 70's. "
While reading Victorian novels, you come across the word "antimacassar" occasionally. As in "Lord Plushbottom stretched his arm out over the antimacassar as he languidly nibbled a cucumber sandwich." It was one of those words I always meant to look up, but I was too lazy to actually get up and find the dictionary. When I read a fun book by Daniel Pool entitled "What Jane Austen Ate and Charles Dickens Knew" about daily life in 19th century England, I finally found out. Fashionable men used macassar oil to style their hair. The "antimacessars" were the doilies and cloth put over the sofa backs to protect them from getting stained.
Dewy young things are all well and good (about a half century ago I was much in the company of dewy young things; youth is wasted on the young), but this is a bit much.
My takeaway from runway fashion is that really beautiful women can often look good in spite of clothing, makeup, and hairstyles that are quite ugly when looked at in isolation (and quite hideous when applied to normal looking women.)
