Strange and Unusual Services....

And I thought a company named Louse Calls was different.

How about this one? From an article giving helpful hints for thicker looking hair:

"It's been my experience that vitamin co enzyme B biotin supplements can increase hair health and up the production of dormant hair follicles, thereby creating fuller hair," says Silvia SanStevens, co-founder of door-to-door blow-out service Blow Me. 

Blow me? You can look it up here.

Just when I thought I'd covered everything I find Blow Me. I certainly understand why this might be a lucrative business if the clients were male but do enough women need help drying their hair?

Ruth Stafford Peale, wife of "The Power of Positive Thinking" author, Norman Vincent Peals is credited with the famous quote "Find a need and fill it!"

Here are some home and delivery services you may not be aware of.

We-B-Naked:

We provide Nude Cooks and House Cleaners. Basically men and women will cook or clean while naked or if you choose wearing sexy underwear. Cooks must wear aprons and owing to several minor accidents men are not allowed to vacuum.

Terms and conditions: We-B-Naked provides a house cleaning and cooking service solely for the purpose of house cleaning and cooking. We-B-Naked does not provide any form of escort service or illegal activity.

Client must provide cleaning supplies (if necessary). Charges are $150 per hour with a 2 hour minimum.

You must be 18 years of age to book and be present for all Maid Services.

No cameras or video equipment allowed and please close your blinds.

Nail Express:

We offer same day home service. If your nails are cracked, chipped or too damn long give our service a try. We do manicures and pedicures on both men and women in the comfort of your home. Nail clippings become the property of Nail Express.

Hello Flo:

If buying tampons is a problem call on Hello Flo. We're as regular as your period. For the low, low price of $14 per month we will deliver your tampons (or pads) faster than you can say.....I need you now.

Safety First Condoms:

You never know when you might need protection so let us be yours. For only $1 per month we'll mail you 3 condoms in your choice of colors. One size fits all. We supply attractive rubber bands if necessary. Each condom is individually wrapped in an attractive foil package. For the overconfident try our "Don't Put a Bun-in-the Oven" bakers dozen for just $10 per month.

If not satisfied...don't complain to us. Returns not accepted.

Shave and a Haircut...Two Bits:

For $9.50 Harry's Hairy Hide-Away will send you shaving cream, razors and man grooming tips the first of every month. Learn how to give yourself a trim or a full hair-cut using a scissors and mirror. For an additional $10 Harry's Hat Haven will send you a new hat.

This is THE sock club for men and women. For $12 you will receive a fresh and very attractive pair of fashionable socks each month. We have a six month minimum initial contract. Please specify size when placing first order. All socks are guaranteed shrink resistant. We will not be held responsible for any sock that escapes your dryer.

Timely Ties:

You know that ugly tie that you get every holiday, this isn't it. We send a beautiful silk tie we guarantee you'll love the first Tuesday of the month. Our ties are always stylish and always colorful. Basic package starts at $15 for tie only. Add a matching pocket square for $3 more.

All items are dry clean only.

Funerals-R-Fun:

Loved one passed? You have enough on your plate. Let us take the worry out of what to do with gramps. Funerals-R-Fun is a full service company. From soup to nuts we do it all so be sure to give us a call. Call Funerals-R-Fun at 1-888-Pine Box.

Litter Mates & Poop Scoops:

Call for next day full service. We know you and your pets will be happy with a clean yard and/or a fresh litter box. We will pick-up, remove and haul away all the dog shit in your yard. We also empty, wash, and supply fresh clumping litter to the cat boxes. Our service starts at $30 for smaller, $55 for larger breeds. Sorry, we do not do Great Danes, Irish Wolfhounds or Standard Poodles.

We offer a 10% discount for multi-dog and cat homes.

Debbie -D-Clutters:

Are you tired of tripping over boxes? Are you sleeping in a rats nest? Are you pooping in plastic garbage bags? Is your kitchen a toxic waste land?

I'm a silver member of the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) and founder of Throw Out Some Stuff (TOSS). I'll come to your home and help you decide what items are worth keeping and what should be TOSS-ED. I will have your house looking neat and orderly before you can say HOARDER. So, put your trust in me and give me your key.  All services must be paid-in-full in advance.

Nothing-But-Net Aquarium Service:

If you're tired of cleaning the fish....we'll make it sparkle or you don't pay. No tank too big or small and as for fish we've done it all. 

We are a full tropical fresh and salt water service. We have over 20-years in the fish business and know our way around a tank. We offer weekly, bi-monthly and monthly tank cleaning. If you're really tired of the expense and upkeep of your fish call out sister company Sushi Haven.

Joker's Wild:

If you're down in the dumps, depressed and feeling lonely call Joker's Wild. We'll send you a semi-professional comedian guaranteed to make you laugh periodically during a 30 minutes joke session. We also offer card and board game partners and private taxi service to an emergency room near you.

Mountain Mikes Meat of the Month Some Cheese and a Little Fruit Club:

Mike has it all, steaks, burgers, and exotic meat. If you need two or two hundred steaks per month Mike has you covered. We have Kobe beef, link sausage, bacon and ribs. No meat is left behind. When you're ready to salute the salami give Mike a try.

We also offer a cheese surprise and a selection of in-season stone fruit with our deluxe package.

So there you have it. 

I'm sure there are other odd and unusual home and delivery services. I found one that will do a house call and floss your teeth but that's even too weird for me.

Stop by the blog on Monday for more.
