Does Your Child Want ‘Bunchems’ For Christmas? You Might Want To Rethink Before You Buy
I was shopping around with my 5-year-old daughter, Chloe. She found a box of Bunchems and said 'This is all I want for Christmas!!" She continued on to say the usual stuff to convince mommy, daddy and whoever might have been listening how she would do all the chores for fifteen thousand seconds (yes seconds) and promised to be good until she died.
Yesterday, I noticed some comments cautioning people from buying these squishy lil spawns from H-E-DOUBLE HOCKEY STICKS.
Here are some costumer reviews from Amazon.com:

DO NOT BUY! They got stuck in my daughters hair!! There is a youtube video explaining how to remove them. IT DOES NOT WORK! We tried everything. Here is how I removed them. After trial and error this was the fastest and most painless way we found. I used spray leave in conditioner on the Bunchem and surrounding area of hair to make it wet, pull the hair down off the ball with a toothpick(or sharp small object) then when half of the ball is exposed, using a long nosed pliers I wiggled the ball free from her hair. I hope this helps! Good Luck
Here's the commercial advertising Bunchems:
Here's pictures of what happens when Bunchems are introduced to a child's hair:
My final decision...I will NOT be buying these for my daughter.
