Risa hadn't realized it, but the bottle was somewhat sensitive to squeezes. Before she could even decide where to put the gel on, she grasped the container too hard. It squirted a lob of blue gel out that went right for her head.
Risa tried to duck to get out of the way, but the gel landed in her black hair with a splat.
"Ahhhh....Nuts!" She muttered, looking at herself in the mirror. A large lock of her hair was covered in the blue sticky substance. "I hope this junk comes out, the last thing I need is to take another shower with water bills as they are..."
Using her hand, she attempted to rub the gel out. The strange thing was it didn't even feel soapy, it was almost...watery. Even after a few rubs, the blue color didn't disappear. While Risa continued rubbing the gel in, she remained blissfully unaware that every rub caused her previously shoulder length hair to grow a inch.
Inch by inch, her black hair began to cover more and more of her head. Risa was too focused on the blue stain to notice the slow growth. That is, until her hairline reached her eyesight.
"Stupid stuff...Won't...Come out....Wait, what the?"
She stopped a moment from her rubbing. Her hair was easily twice the size it had been moments ago. Grabbing two big handfuls, Risa stared at herself in disbelief. Her hair was the same as it had always been, it just seemed to have...resized itself.
"Wait a minute here...What the heck!? I mean, I haven't cut my hair in a week or two but this is ridiculous!"
That's when she noticed that the spray of blue gel previously clogged in her hair had vanished. Risa looked at herself in the mirror, then at her hair, then at the bottle.
"It couldn't be..."
She cupped her hand, dumped a small amount of gel into it, and proceeded to rub it into her hair. Again, every rub she did caused her hair to grow just a little bit longer. She stopped and watched the blue blob disappear like water in the hot sun.
"This stuff...made my hair grow...!?"
Staring at the bottle, she looked for a label of some kind. Nothing. No instructions. No words. Just a small yellow plastic bottle with blue gel inside. Risa shook it slightly, the gel swirled around inside. The bottle was still almost completely full.
"Huh..." Risa said, thinking for a moment pulling on a handful of hair. She repeated. "It made my hair grow..."
Suddenly a whole new world opened up to the poor girl. She had a bottle of what could only described as a bottle of magic. Maybe it could work on anything! Any body part, maybe food! She would never go to bed hungry again! Food...No. She could get a ton of money with this thing! Maybe she could start selling her hair to wig makers, the possibilities were endless!
