    Is kirkland foam strong enough for average hair

    agreed. There was a study on Nurofen, saying it targets certain areas, where in fact it doesn't. it just blocks pain receptors. They were also saying that a pack of Nurofen was £3 and ASDA own brand was 50p. They contained exactly the same ingredients as each other. you just pay for a brand name.
