The gel-ous type
Since moving to Hong Kong last year, my husband has been unable to find his favourite brand of hair gel, Nexxus Exxtra Gel, made by the US salon brand. Is it available here? Having friends mail supplies is getting expensive.

The Dictator rules: Who is your husband? The Fonz? It's my duty as a public figure to highlight a growing concern in men's grooming: unspoken hair obsessions. We heard of a Christmas lunch where only the women donned paper hats because the men were worried about messing up their hair. Honestly. Feed you husband's obsession if you must by telling him Nexxus products are available at La Coupe (Shop 317, Prince's Building, 10 Chater Road, Central, tel: 2868-2266). This is the Nexxus-recommended distributor, which sells a 150ml container of Exxtra Gel for $135. For discounted gel, try Professional Hair Products (G/F, 49A Wellington Street, Central, tel: 2536-0603), which charges $78 for 150ml and $156 for a humungous 400ml. But, please, try to wean him off the stuff by telling him how good he looks first thing in the morning.
A lot of pluck
After a lifetime of not really noticing them, I'm just starting to groom my eyebrows. Where can I get a top-performing pair of tweezers?
