"girls get it..."

ever seen these three sets of commercials about three girls with long black shiny hair? one girl tries to avoid the numerous fans in an open air resto, the other sitting at a table alone with a guy on the other table and the last, 2 girls walking after a day's shopping...

girl # 1 with the bunch of fans...
she sees her bf on the other side of the resto. but sees there are a lot of electric fans around. she smiles at the guy and walks toward him and avoiding all the fans..

girl # 2 inside the resto...
she sitting and seems like she's waiting for her food to arrive, so to pass time, she takes out her phone and takes pictures of her hair at different angles. takes a look at the pictures she took and looks impressed with the pictures that the took. she smiles at the guy who looks really weirded out with what she did...

girl # 3 shopping...
she's walking along the sidewalk with her friend after shopping and sees a bus parked. she approaches the bus and grabs the bus' side mirror, she looks at herself then looks at her hair at different angles then returns the mirror na parang wala lang. then the driver looks at her like she's this mad woman. hehe

common thing with these girls?
they said these lines.. "girls get it..."

i'm sorry but i'm a girl but really, i really don't get it. but not in a blond bimbo kind of way that i don't get what the commercial is saying. i just don't get the message and the image that it wants to portray. does the commercial want to say that no matter what situation, you have to admire your hair? there are other things more important than your hair...

the first girl, i mean come on.. i hate my hair being blown away by the wind as the next girl but, AVOIDING the fans??!?!?!?! that's a slight breeze, nothing that a little hair combing could fix. is she afraid that if the breeze touches her hair it will fall off? hmm... maybe that's why her hair is so stiff! haha

second girl... i admit i have seen some girls do this. but taking pictures of your hair alone in a restaurant and admiring it after?? now that's sad... and sick.

third girl... would you use someone's side mirror and displace it just to look at your hair? good luck to you if you can return it back to they way it was. side mirrors are used for a different purpose. it's not just a mirror...

so... "girls get it"... nope not all. and definitely not me.

*these are just my own reactions/opinions on the commercial. this does not mean i'm looking for a fight or anything. i just want to vent out. *

cheers!
