I was recently interviewed by
Gross Magazine

Interviewer: Amy, we've all seen how disturbed your hair gets while you sleep- which is truly amazing. I'm curious about your hairs' process. It seems like you would have to go through a lot to get your hair to look like that. So tell us- how do you get your hair to look so gross?

Amy: Wow- that's a really interesting question! Well, I have a few different methods that I've developed over the years. But, honestly- I have to say that it all comes down to the ingredients. You absolutely can not skimp on quality when it comes to ingredients. You can spend years(and believe me, I know people who have done this)developing certain methodologies and techniques- and that's all well and good- but then when it comes time to add the ingredients- they cheap out(okay...maybe it's because their funding dried up which is happening more and more)but, ultimately what they're left with is an inferior product that no one wants.

Interviewer: Would you mind sharing with us what some of your favorite ingredients are?

Amy: Sure. Well, for my hair type- which is very fine- I would have to say that my favorite ingredients are lard and talcum powder.

Interviewer: Really!!

Amy: Yeah. Really.

Interviewer: The next obvious question would be why??

Amy: The lard gives it work-a-bility and pliancy, as well as a very off-putting odor...and the talcum powder gives it a nice pastey texture and it also covers up the hairs' natural lustre. You put the two together and you have a winning combination of grossness.

Interviewer: You mentioned before using quality ingredients, so what brand of lard and talcum powder do you prefer?

Amy: Actually, I'm not allowed to give that information away due to my pending book contract. But, all that information and more will be available to every one once my book is published...which looks now like it will be mid-summer of 2006.


Interviewer: Wow- congratulations!! That's very exciting and something for our Gross readers to look forward to. Amy, I'd like to thank you for taking time today to talk to us about your gross hair.


Amy: You're very welcome!
