- Description
- The indications or uses for this product as provided on its packaging:
- DuSharme gives new beauty and manageability to the hair, protects and enhances hair coloring and permanents. It restores the softness, sheen, and pliability that harsh shampoos, sprays, permanents, coloring, and the sun steal from the hair. It never streaks or discolors! Recommended by leading hair stylists.
- Dab, The Man’s Hair Dressing. Groom your hair he-man handsome! Massage a little DAB into the hair and scalp. Look debonair all day long! And you’re set for all night too! DAB leaves no tell-tale stains on any pillow case, upholstery, or your hat band. DAB’s for grooming, not greasing!
- These two hair dressing products were packaged together and sold for one dollar as "Buy one - get one free." Dusharme, "the pearl of hair cremes" was targeted to women, and DAB, "the man's hair dressing," targeted to men. This item probably dates to the early 1960s.
