Does anyone else like watching people massage/slick their hair with hard to remove substances Things like vaseline, paint etc. I've even heard of people using axle grease (though I can't find pictures). I think the difficulty of the cleanup makes the video all the more exciting, and the people who do it have my respect because of the commitment. Ofc, it's hard to find content like that because only the most extreme wammers will do it.
I suspect that some have found out the difficulty of removal after the event. Some also have techniques for the removal of same. For example flour and almost any form of liquid is a definite no-no for many, but others (have) used it on many occasions.without adverse effects. I have never been a fan of agressive materials such as paint etc. as I feel it detracts from the enjoyment of the participants. That said, consumable oil has a lot of entertainment value, engine oil, not so much.
If WAM is to be anything, surely it has got to be fun for both those taking part and those enjoying it vicariously. It is the spectacle and the feeling that is important. For example, I do not got to motor races to see someone killed or even crash, I go for the excitement. WAM should be the same.
A lot of fairly common substances are extreme enough for a woman who is particular about her hair and spends good money on hairdressing. Especially when it comes to 'shampooing' stuff where it's not just layers of 'coverage' but they are thoroughly worked in. That's a thrill (for me) both to watch and perform on someone.
Lard and flour is quite is far enough for most models - and far enough to shock most of the audience, too. As are grease paints (non toxic or edible ones) Going any further than this and the interest noticeably wanes and usually prompts concerns about the model.
Nothing I ever used in a shoot has caused any real problems - any potential hassle is factored in to the preparation. With experience also comes confidence and the surprisingly counterintuitive solutions to cleaning up the more tenacious messes (which might look to the untrained eye like making matters worse). Participants are usually pleasantly surprised that it's been possible to 'restore' them by the end of the day - and they will then trust that this will be the case next time too - so they're free to enjoy the mayhem!
The most extreme end, which can cause permanent damage to hair and even risk to overall health, is of less interest to me and is in fact beyond the parameters of this group as such.
Axle is my favorited. It is quite difficult to clean up but not too bad if you wipe it off first. You will need a lot of automotive paper towel. Wipe everything off as much as you can. Try to get them off from your hair until it's just oil on your hair. After that take a shower with strong dish soap. I usually use dish soap twice and follow with bodywash for my body. For the hair, I wash it 5-6 times with the dish soap and regular shampoo. Don't forget to use conditioner after since grease will dry your hair out.
