When it came out last year (2005), GIANT magazine was the coolest. It touted itself as being men’s interest, but I had such fun with it. Its book and movie reviews were sharp, plentiful and on the mark, the interviews were punchy and fascinating, and even the layout …

“The secret is Beautiful hair is bigger than just olive oil.” I like that this line was used in this ad. But I am really having a hard time believing that Luster’s has discovered something that other hair care systems haven’t. Anyway, this commercial features …
