Today’s Illegal Ad: Wow, Wonder What Real Wolf Boy Thinks?

Philips has a razor and ha ha they’re hoping to shave some hairy people. In this video, they pick a character called Wolf Boy, who judging by the kookiness of this spot is not based on the real person. Well, people. There’s a legit disorder called hypertrichosis, aka “Werewolf Disease” and the bottom line (other than it sucking huge) is that shaving does pretty much nothing. Why? Because it’s hard to shave your eyelids, that’s why.

The kid in the pic above is from Mumbai and apparently everyone picks on him. Ha ha Philips, you’re hilarious.
