- Today we determine the strongest hair spray of them all.
- Let's talk about that.
(upbeat dubstep music)

- Hairspray is a crucial beauty tool
that has helped perfect sensational dos
throughout the history of time.
Yes hairspray was invented in 1948 but I subscribe
to a particular time theory that life began in 1948.
Everything before that is a lie the government feeds us.
- Of course you do.
Today we're gonna be investigating firm hold hairsprays
utilizing our unique, yet always scientifically defensible
techniques of consumer testing.
We're gonna try to find out which hairspray is the strongest
of them all, it's time for
Which Hairspray is Strong Enough for a Violent Hair Toss
and Which One Is Actually Kind of Weak Sauce?
Welcome to the aerosol free-for-all,
AKA the hairspray cabaret.
- We're gonna put the market's best strong-hold hairsprays
to the test in an elimination-style tournament
and to help us, we have five brave Mythical team members
who volunteered, that's right,
volunteered to partake in this test.
- We have Emily with Got2b Glued Blasting Freeze Spray.
- [Rhett] Ellie with L'Oreal Elnet Extra Strong Hairspray.
- [Link] Christine is in Tresemme Extra Hold Hairspray.
- [Rhett] Bethany has Salon Grafix Freezing Spray.
- [Link] And Jenna is in Suave Maximum Hold Hairspray.
- All right let's get to our first round.
(rock music)
- Our first test is action.
Okay here's a scenario.
You're seeing your favorite metal band,
Slip-not Your Real Dad and you're gonna start
your head-bangin' and you don't want your hair to fell
because then you will be exposed as not being metal as heck.
- So that's why our action test is
full-throttle head banging.
Y'all ready?
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- All right as the kids say, go dummy!
(upbeat dubstep music)
- Okay they're not together but they are in the same rhythm.
- Oh God, there's a lot happening.
There's a lot happening!
- [Link] A lot of hair floppin's happenin'.
Emily seems super stiff but her head banging is super stiff.
- Okay wow-- - Ooh!
- Wow. (Ellie claps)
Emily, you might need to see a chiropractor. (laughs)
I mean I don't know if I just had a good angle
but it really felt like there was,
you were like I am not moving my neck.
(all laughing)
- Yeah it was really from the hips.
Now, if we're to assess, I mean everything's fully in tact.
And I will say for everyone, even though it comes
to this point, there is nothing
that is holding the hair here.
- [Rhett] Right except the hairspray.
- Except the hairspray. - And I will say that
you have some of the shorter hair in the bunch
so your, I don't know what you would call that,
your pinnacle (chuckles) is a little bit smaller
so I'm trying to take that into account.
But whatever happened.
- It's Got2b good. - Because nothing moved.
- All right so move on over. - Nothing moved at all.
- Whoo! - Oh wow.
You've been through something.
- (laughing) Yeah. - Now what do you got here,
L'Oreal-- - L'Oreal--
- [Link] Is lori all over the place.
- All right so okay, I know you're in contention
for being sent home. (chuckles)
- (chuckles) But I felt the spirit.
I feel like I went hard.
- Yeah. - Okay?
- Yeah you did, you were into it.
- Hord. - Hord!
- Hord!
- Okay, Christine's didn't move a whole lot.
I mean we still have a lot of--
- Don't touch it.
We have some separation here.
- There's separation-- - But here--
- [Rhett] But it's still kind of holding itself up.
- [Link] This is really--
- So Christine I think you can step to the side.
You're not going anywhere right now.
- All right here we've got--
- Bethany. - SG.
- Salon-- - Salon Grafix.
- Now you have so much volume. - You got a lot of hair.
- I have a lot of hair. - Got a lot of hair,
you were really getting into it.
- I think we have to take that into account.
Because-- - It's moved a lot
but look at, hold on, look at Ellie's profile.
- Yeah so if we look at Jenna. - Oh yeah yeah.
- Jenna's like a slightly more controlled version of Bethany
and I'm talking about work ethic here at the office.
(Rhett laughs) - Oh!
- Okay. - That was just a joke.
- All right no more of those jokes.
- Just, it's just a joke. - They won't be taken well.
- It's okay, we work well together, it's fine.
- I don't even know who was slammed in that joke.
It's just I'm not even thinking.
- Either way I think that you're both in better shape
than Ellie right now.
- Ellie. - I'm sorry to say--
- You've got to go. - Aw.
- Hey. - L'Oreal is being sent home.
- L'Ore-gone.
- You still have to stay here for the day though. (chuckles)
- I gave it my best shot, you know?
(rock music)
- When normal whack-a-mole loses its thrill
and you want to hunt the most dangerous game of all,
human people, you play whack-a-do.
- Yeah so using a pillow, Link is going to administer
a whacking to each hair. (chuckles)
A normal way to see which hairspray is able
to withstand a restless night's sleep.
- Yeah that's all this is simulating.
- Right, yeah and I'm going to observe
and draw conclusions from the undeniable science
of this test.
All right ladies.
Go into your holes.
And let's whack-a-do!
(upbeat music) (Bethany laughs)
- Whoa, what, are you okay?
(upbeat music)
I got you twice already.
Got you twice, got you once.
Oh, missed.
Just totally took your mic pack off your back.
- All right come back up, Jenna.
He's gotta hit you
one more time. - Destroy you!
- Okay, all right, everybody's been hit twice.
- No, Christine, get up here.
- I got twice. - Get up here!
- No she got hit twice.
Let me count it.
- How many times did you get hit, Christine?
- Twice! - All right come up here.
- Twice, okay.
- All right. - Wow.
- That was so much harder.
- What?
Oh sorry.
- Be a man about the mic pack.
Took it out on me.
- It was a heavy pillow, sorry.
I think you're doing great.
- Okay, let's start over here with Emily who again,
hasn't really experienced much change.
- [Link] What the crap.
- [Rhett] I mean whatever's happening here is working.
I mean it's working on one level.
- I think it's working on a lot of levels.
- Your hair is staying exactly the same
for the most part.
Okay. - Does it feel like
you have a globe on?
- No I feel light as a feather.
(Christine laughs)
- Okay Christine has still got quite an amount
of integrity here. - Oh yeah nod, nod again.
- [Rhett] I mean look at that.
- It moves just enough.
- [Rhett] So you could sleep with this, wake up
and basically go on about your day,
if this is the particular hairstyle that you wanted to use.
- Okay. - Bethany, we've got--
- Well Bethany. (crew laughs)
Her life has gone sideways.
- [Rhett] Look at her, it's still--
- But it's still up there. - Look at that.
- [Rhett] I mean really this comes down to--
- Jenna and Bethany. - Jenna and Bethany, yeah.
I feel like Bethany experienced more damage in this round--
- I don't know, Jenna-- - But Jenna's was already
kind of flattened and I think you just further flattened it.
- It just stayed in place from there.
- Oh gosh, this is not easy.
You know Jenna started in a pretty bad place
just after the first test.
I mean not personally, your hair.
- You don't know that. - And-- (laughs)
(Emily claps)
But you know, Bethany's has changed quite a bit.
- You know what, we don't know that.
- We don't, we don't, and I'm not gonna pry.
And Bethany, you've experienced a lot of change
but there's still a lot of hair going up
so I feel like-- - All of hers is
going over.
Again, you're taking volume into account.
It's more difficult but very impressive.
- I think we gotta get rid of Suave.
- I mean don't take it personal, Jenna.
- No it's fine, it's just Suave.
(Christine cackles)
(rock music)
- Don't you hate it when you're driving down
the beautiful PCH, just you and your two friends,
somehow all wedged in the front seat
when oh no, an adolescent witch on a far-off Malibu cliff
who has yet to master full control of her powers
accidentally turns your entire car invisible
except for the wheel?
- We've all been there.
This is the wind test.
We've got some freakin' leaf blowers here
that are gonna blast,
I don't know if you're gonna be able to sit still.
I don't know what's gonna happen.
I've never seen this work.
- At least they got their seat belts on.
All right let's fire it up in three--
- Two-- - One!
(air blowing)
Whoa!
(Link laughs)
Oh no! - Steer!
- A garbage truck just pulled in front of you!
(girls and Link yelling)
- Oh look, the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man
from "The Ghostbusters" movie in the '80s
just took a crap in front of the car!
(girls yelling)
- Oh no!
An endangered bald eagle!
- Wha! (laughs)
Yeah!
Woo, you just hit an endangered bald eagle
and ran through some--
- Wow, you know what, you actually ran into
the first ever flock of bald eagles.
- Oh. - All right let's see
what happened, you have a feather in your hair, that's nice.
You have a feather in your hair.
- Emily. - Emily.
- What's up? - Are you even here, girl?
- [Rhett] Yeah look at me.
- Get with the program!
- [Rhett] Did you feel any wind?
- Yes. (Rhett laughs)
- It's not evident.
Okay all right, you're staying.
Who's going home, let's see.
- [Link] Christine has made a move.
- Mm-hmm. - She's got a feather
in her cap. - How did we get that
right in the middle, that's really, really nice.
- No, it just comes to me.
- That is so hipster. (Christine chuckles)
- But you know what-- - Usually there's a hat
involved though.
- I'll take basically everything that Bethany had
kinda over here. - Here.
- Is now-- - Back here.
- So I think she clearly had the most change
through this process.
I think that we've gotta send Salon Grafix home.
Right off the cliff.
(rock music)
- All right it's the final two and it's time
to see how they do in rain.
Don't look so happy about it.
- I'm not, I'm ready to win.
- Oh you're being serious, like the competition.
- Uh-huh. - Okay.
Well I don't think Emily's sweating.
- You're not competing, it's just the hairspray.
Just the hairspray, no pressure.
- I'm just happy to be here.
- All right in order to simulate rain
'cause it doesn't exist in this state,
we have created the umbrella mister 3000.
- Yes, it's the umbrella that creates rain.
So you guys are going to mist yourselves
for, you know, about 30 seconds or so,
and then we're going to assess the results
about how these hairsprays withstand rain.
Three, two, one, let it rain.
(whimsical music)
- Okay. - Oh it's a lot
more soft. - All right now,
Emily's moving around.
Christine-- - Come up a little bit.
- Christine, let's see if we can get--
- [Rhett] Bend forward a little bit.
There we go.
I'm getting right on the top.
- [Link] Now just hold your hand out.
- This is how I look when I hold an umbrella.
- [Link] And then we're gonna, I'm kinda putting it
right in the middle. - Right on the top, Link.
- Right on the top? - Right on the top.
Just hittin' the peak.
- [Link] Oh.
- [Rhett] I'm just sprinklin' all over the peak.
- I'm peakin' it too.
Sprinklin' on the peak.
- Sprinklin' on the peak. - I'm sprinklin' on the peak.
- What I do at the top of every mountain.
Bend forward a little bit.
There you go, there you go, there you go.
- I'm sprinklin' all over.
There is no peak anymore. (Christine yelps)
You can't even phase her peak.
- [Rhett] This peak is like Mount Everest.
It is impervious to weather.
Okay let's stop, let's stop.
- I would say call it
but this is fun. - Come up, come down.
- Okay. - Okay as you can see,
I feel like I could climb that. (chuckles)
I feel like I could climb that--
- A lot of guys say that to me.
(Rhett chuckles)
(crew laughing)
It's true.
- I'm sorry, I was talking about your hair.
- Hey, over here, over here.
Listen to me.
I'll say something now.
- Okay. - Ugh.
Christine, your hair has failed but again,
you are not a failure.
- I'm not a failure.
- Say it again.
You are not a failure.
- I am not a failure, it is not my fault.
It's Tresemme's.
- Yes, hit it, hit 'em with it!
Tresemme.
- You did this to me, Tresemme!
- Officially-- - You're looking everywhere
for 'em.
- Officially Got2b Glued Blasting Freezespray

according to us.
