The actual name for Pauly's hair it is the Tape Up, not the Blowout. The original barbers who started the trend call it that. I watched the clip of him doing it on the Daily News website (watch it if only to see that he sprays hairspray on his head for nearly one minute with no break. Amazing)I have to give him credit for being so dedicated. And, I have to confess that we use the same gel and it is so fucking expensive. It keeps your hair in place. To wash it out you practically need acetone, which is what drew me to it in the first place.
