00:00Did you even take a picture? No, you can download it and it's safe as to memories.
00:04Do you even snapchat? No. Hi, welcome to Test Lab where we test the internet's
00:09wackiest products so you don't have to. Today we are going to be doing hair
00:13therapy sheet masks. I am a regular face mask user but I've never used a mask for
00:17my hair before. I've done a hair mask but not with the sheet. Mm-hmm. So this is
00:22new for both of us. So let's talk about these hair masks. I have never seen what
00:27they actually look like before so whatever's inside here is a mystery to
00:30both of us. Yes, we've seen the face mask on Instagram. It's like if you put one on
00:35you're not allowed to not Instagram it. So obviously we have to Instagram ourselves
00:38after we put them on. If we look cool wearing them. If we look like idiots maybe
00:42not. It says used for nourishing and repairing damaged hair. I've been getting
00:47my hair highlighted since I was like 13 so definitely a lot of damage there. My
00:52hair past my roots is like pretty damaged and it already is feeling kind of
00:57dry and brittle. It's supposed to work in 15 minutes so that's like a pretty
01:00quick turnaround time. Yeah. So I'm hoping for immediate effect and beautiful
01:05results. The big reveal. Oh it smells nice. Oh it does? Yeah.
01:11Oh it looks like a pad inside. I thought it was gonna be white. I thought it was
01:15because those face masks are always white. It's like a nice Victorian pattern. So it's
01:20dry when you touch it actually. Yeah but there's it feels like there's things in
01:25there. One of my major concerns I have really really super thick hair and this
01:30may like look wide that way but like I'm not sure it's all gonna fit in here. I
01:34have very thin fine hair and not a lot of it so I'm worried that there won't be
01:38enough hair between my scalp and this mask to protect my head. So here's to
01:42hoping that we have hair by the end of this and that it's like well moisturized. So
01:48the first step is to moisten our hair and then we put it in here. I think it's as
01:55simple as that. We're back with really moist hair. It's all primed and ready to put the
02:02hair mask on. So let's put 30 seconds on the clock and see who can put it on the
02:05fastest. All right, ready, set, go. Oh god, I've already failed. Oh god. Oh, oh, oh. Oh man, I wish
02:17I
02:17had to put the rest of my hair in it because then I would like already have one. Okay. I
02:24feel like I won.
02:27Wait, what? Yours looks like a head wrap. It's definitely not touching close to like half of my hair. I
02:33feel
02:33disheveled. Do I look as disheveled as I feel? You look very disheveled. Can I help you? Yeah, okay. I
02:37won, right? I'm fine, you won, you won.
02:39But now I need your assistance. Do it the way that Jessie did it unless you want five
02:44minutes of your 15 minutes to be taken up by just putting on the damn mask itself. This is quite
02:49difficult.
02:50Can you massage it online? Do you see it? Oh, okay, here. Sarah's a horrible massager,
02:54is what I'm finding out. Feels maybe like there's a garbage bag on my head and I feel
02:58like it's definitely just like all right here and it's not supposed to be touching
03:01my scalp and it definitely is totally touching my scalp. All right, so we're
03:05gonna leave these on for 15 minutes and then we'll come back and we'll see how the
03:09results are. Let's get some snapchat shots. At the very least, these are good photo
03:13props. Now that we waited 15 minutes, we're gonna go take these off and rinse our hair
03:18out. Can we just pop them off at the same time? Yeah, okay, ready? One, two, three.
03:24Ta-da! Was that climactic? I don't think so! What's happening right here?
03:28Sarah Lee has a huge chunk of discontinued hair. Oh my god. Is yours, what, on the bottom?
03:34Does mine look good a little bit? Oh, okay. Actually, it does feel like you got a little bit more
03:37of like an
03:38equal distribution. Cool, so let's get this shit out of the hair. All right, let's go!
03:44Okay, so Jessie and I have just blown out our hair. So it's feeling heavy and my hair's still a
03:49little bit wet, but I can also feel some of the product weighing it down a little bit. It does
03:53feel like
03:54more moist. It smells amazing. Yeah, it smells really good. It's like a little bit
03:59sticky, but I feel like the parts of my hair that are dry do feel slightly softer, maybe?
04:05I feel like your hair looks like more like volume. Yeah, I do feel like there's a little bit
04:10more bounce in my mane. So far, no irritation. No hair loss, hopefully, but who knows?
04:16Tomorrow could be rocking the Katy Perry shaven head look. Yeah. I'm not sure that I would
04:22like do it by myself or do it for... I wouldn't do it.
04:27I think it could be fun for like a girl's night in. Yeah.
04:29You get a hair mask, you get a sheet mask, you get a body mask. Yes.
04:34And then everyone just wakes up the next morning feeling super refreshed and moisturized.
04:38Exactly. So it's been a lot of fun experimenting with a hair mask.
04:41Thanks for watching. We'll see you again next time. Bye.
