Man sees Davina McCall in reception.

Mar 27, 2009 13:00

I saw Davina McCall in reception the other day - you know, from the Garnier Nutrisse adverts. I don't know whether Davina is going prematurely grey, or whether she's just tremendously indecisive, but whatever the reason, she's always dying her hair, and the brand of colourant she uses for this is Garnier Nutrisse. Because as Davina says, " ( Read more... )

I wonder if she could be induced to rub Dunn's River Nurishment into her head instead. Never mind meaning nourish, that product is actually just a single o from being nourishment and not in Italian either.

Garnier recently cut out the references in the ad to Davina's mum, because Davina's mum died. Now the disembodied voice is anonymous.

That is genuinely sad. I am genuinely saddened.

Don't be too sad, Davina wasn't.

For the last few years, millions of viewers have seen Davina chat on the phone to her "mum" in Garnier hair-dye ads. But the woman is really her stepmum Gaby.

What? They actually have someone on the other end of the phone?

Basically, everyone's choosing their own hair colour aren't they? I know I did.

Are they? I haven't looked at the results yet. Are people really bothering to vote?

If that's the case there are an awful lot of redheads on your flist.

Yes, I did.

Also I am a closet goff so black hair dye would appeal to me anyway.
Luckily the hair grows out my head that shade already so I will have saved literally hundreds of pounds on Garnier Nutrisse.

And what Davina hasn't mentioned there is that those French brands are big on the old animal testing, so that prior to it nourishing (in Italian) her lovely locks, it was probably nourishing the eyeballs out of some poor rabbit.

No - 67 - LIGHT AUBURN (GINGER SPICE)(cut and paste from their website - hence the shouty capitals).

Time to get all the redheads to start a revolution much like all the power movements of the 60s and 70s.

(I am not really a redhead but I will fight their cause!)

Yeah, there are some missing. There are about 30 colours in the Nutrisse range, I discovered during the course of my research, but you can only have 15 options in a poll, so I arbritrarily disqualifed some, on the grounds that I didn't like them, or they were too similar to other colours, or I didn't fancy the models enough.
