      I wonder if women tend to be more brand and status conscious about their consumer choices, and are willing to pay more for a brand based entirely on the status of that brand, rather than the product qualities.

      Just kidding, I don't wonder that.

            Oh, the discussions about which kind of shampoo to buy that I've avoided having.

            I was only joking

              Amen. I use Tresseme, which is about $5 a quart. She uses whatever the salon sells her at $10 per teaspoon.

                  I care much more about it simply staying put.
