Suave.com-Not what you think.

Website Review   by:Teal Gil    
ª
 
For those of you who looked at the title and had no idea what this is about, let me clarify: This website is the official website for Suave- say yes to beautiful. That's right, beautiful. As in not macho. As in the website for this shampoo is not nearly as macho as I thought it would be, considering I use Suave every day. I always thought Suave was the shampoo for the man's man. You know, smooth and silky and sparkling like Rico Suave or something. But no. Suave the shampoo apparently has no affiliation to Rico Suave whatsoever, and this is why: Before even venturing into the depths of the website, the Suave homepage says it all. It's covered in flowers, for pete's sake. It's got some picture of a woman carrying a baby in a stroller and, as I've said before, their slogan is say yes to beautiful . Not exactly the machoest of slogans. Then we have the list of Suave products. I actually counted 149 different kinds of products, and about 10 or 20 of them were actually for men. So right off the bat, I think you can see how they should rename the product something like Estrogen Select or something. Not like I have any problem shampoo for women; I really don't, but the Suave people have been misleading men for years now. Rico should sue. Anyhow, virtually the enitre website is products, and the Suave people have actually taken the time to organize the "golden 149" into the following categories: Shampoo Conditioner 2 in 1 Hair Spray Mousse Gel Specialty I'm a little scared by the speciality category, so what do I do? I click it. Of course the specialty category is divided into three sub-categories: Professionals, naturals, and miscellaneous (this level of organization is another easy clue that this site is not designed by men).
Being me, I click on miscellaneous. I thought there'd be another five categories left to choose from, but finally I actually get to see a product or two. The two products thet had in the miscellaneous category were as follows: Groom & Clean Greaseless Hair Control Moisturizing Hot Oil What in the name of Chuch Norris is moisturizing hot oil? Well, I have no idea, but it supposedly fights split ends and breakage. And there are dramtic relults in just one minute! Wow! Believe it or not, there's actually more to this site than products. Sort of. If I had found this site in June I could have won an extreme mommy makeover! I didn't find it in time. Darn it. And last but not least (if you likes sites like this, otherwise it's the nail in the coffin) there's the momtourage. Yes, the momtourage. Don't everyone vomit at once. Actually, you might want to hold it until you hear this: one of them is a guy. Sorry to bring your hopes up, but that's not technically the end. They have Suave flash games. Yes, flash games. Including Suave-doku. I don't think I've never been more disgusted. With that, I leave you and please, please tell Rico to sue.
