Hair spray manufacturer uses Michelle Obama to market product

US First lady Michelle Obama's sleek hairdo can be attained for just $18, says the manufacturer of a hairstyling product.


The first lady reportedly uses the $18 hair spray called Straight Finish to attain a smooth and shiny look, a representative with Paul Labrecque Products said yesterday.


Michelle Obama's hairstylist, Yusef Williams has used the product on the first lady for events and photo shoots -- including the Democratic Convention.


"She uses it, she loves it, but she did not inspire the product," said Steinman, who added that the spray has been on the market for five years.

The manufacturer is now advertising the product on its website, claiming customers can "Get Michelle Obama's Look".

Meanwhile, in Indonesia,u00a0a gimmicky snack bearing a caricature of US President Barack Obama making a peace sign has been met with resistance from consumer activists.

The Indonesian Consumer Foundation has called on the government to investigate, saying the snack is defamatory to President Obama and potentially harmful to children's health.
