Hair care products: The first "altie medicine" product. Pretty much all 
of them work alike, with minor differences, blind tests find the "cheap" 
ones may even work better, without all the crap in them, in many cases, 
but unless you dump useless stuff in, or put "healthish" on the bottle, 
the "I want the $30 bottle!" people won't buy either the product, or 
the, basically, scam.
