Aibu to ask for your help so I can help my nan?

[Knocksomesense]

Nan is late 80's. And lives 3 hours away.

She's struggling to understand that shops are closed.

She wants "food cream" for her hair. It's from boots and is in an orange tin.

Does anyone know this product?

I buy that garnier papaya hair food and the banana one from home bargains it's £3:50 in there. I think B&M have it too if you have one of them.

I have the Garnier Banana hair food, and use it how your Nan describes. I get it in B&M for £3.50.

I googled Hair cream orange tin and a product called Murray's pomade came up but I think that's more of a styling thing, like bryl cream.

L'Oreal Elvive Extraordinary Oil Very Dry Hair Mask

£ 3 !!

This is a jojoba one. It says oil but pic indicates it is creamy.

Sorry if someone has already mentioned this - I couldn't see it.

@MiniMonkey72 @bamboowhoosh it could be either of those.

I can't even guarantee it IS boots

I love my nan but bloody hell this isn't easy. Mum told her i would be able to get it delivered to her!!

Can she send you a picture or can you FaceTime her and ask her to show you the pot?

You’re going to have to see the pot op

No technology to allow her to have a video call. I've sent a message to my auntie to see if she can help

Oh dear. Not an easy one. Poor you

I’m so sure it that papaya mask. It is AMAZING! You can leave it in, use it as a deep conditioner or use it as normal conditioner. It’s usually on sale around the £3-£3.99 mark somewhere.

And with her saying ‘food cream’. It smells so good and edible!

Thank you all for your help. I've ordered a random one so hopefully it's right! It arrives today

I've also ordered her some word search books, a box of chocolates and some mini jams. Hopefully it'll give her a lift as she's feeling pretty isolated

Delivery came. She's over the moon and said it's like Christmas. Also got the right hair product!! Thank you all for your help. My nan is a very happy woman this evening and that means the world to me
