Oh, somewhere in this world the sun is shining bright,

The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light;

And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout,

But there is no joy in Canada —the Blue Jays have struck out.

Hard hitting journalism.
The internet raves about these curl-defining brushes. We gathered a group to test them out. "I was surprised to find that only two of the 11 testers did not like either brush. That’s about an 80% success rate, which is quite high for a tool I thought would be incredibly polarizing."
These Hair Brushes Claim to Define Curls. We Put Them to the Test.
The viral Bounce Curl EdgeLift brushes impressed most of our testers in delivering defined, voluminous curls. But using them is a time-consuming process.
