Do you people have any idea how difficult it is to find an old-style can of Aqua Net? Good grief! I have one that [livejournal.com profile] cass404 gave me, and I am going to hoard that thing, because the new formula of Aqua Net is Not The Same as the old. No, not at all.

(Seriously. There are whole discussions online about how the formula is different, even though the company swears it isn't. Having recently used a new can of the pink & white label, I agree with the people who say it has changed, and for the worse.)

Which leads me to this, oh LJ hivemind! If any of you people find a can of the classic style Aqua Net (in the pink & white or the purple can), TELL ME. I, um, very well may ask you to snag it for me.




Long ago, when I was young goth-rocker girl and living at home, one of my Christmas presents from my parents was A CASE of Aqua Net. Yes, I went through enough hairspray in the upkeep of my Big Hair that giving me a case of Aqua Net made perfect sense. I was delighted. The case was gone by May or June of that year. The hole in the ozone layer? Partially my fault.

After not having used it in decades (it hasn't been available in Western Canada for ages) I got a can from the US which looked EXACTLY like the purple can in your photo. In short, it sucks. I have a can of Frizz-Ease that is far more like the old Aqua Net than this stuff is. What a disappointment.

I remember the old style can was very metallic, sort of an all-over almost magenta purple but I think it had a white coloured net design on it(?) instead of black. Anyway, I wish I could find some of the old stuff too!
