Hairius and Tousel

Hair washing without tears? Brushing without "Ouch"?

Johanna hates shampoo - it stings her eyes. And brushing hurts a lot.

But two mischievous troll brothers live in her hair: Hairius and Tousel.

One simple idea from Mom turns stress into a playful routine.



Hairius and Tousel are a pair of troll brothers who love knots, tangles, and building tiny nests in little Johannas hair. And every time Johanna says "No!" to shampoo or brushing, the trolls are delighted.



During the day, Hairius gathers all kinds of things and mixes them into sticky knot glue. At night, Tousel gets busy tying the knots together. Wherever the nests stick, no brush can get through. Johanna wants to brush her hair, but she cannot do it alone.



"Mom!"



The next day, Mom has an idea: With a pair of swimming goggles, hair washing no longer hurts. The shampoo washes the nests away - goodbye knot glue. And suddenly brushing becomes easy.



Freshly washed hair swings through the air and smells like strawberry shampoo.
