Mum buys 'head massager' for hair loss before realising it is high-speed vibrator

A mum who bought a 'head massager' to tackle loss was horrified to realise it was actually a high-speed vibrator.

Tanya Rennie, 37, purchased the '30-speed magic vibrating full-body sports massager' thinking it was designed to stimulate hair follicles.

But when her husband Scott, 36, got home one evening and saw it laying next to the kettle, he was shocked into asking his wife why she was leaving sex toys in the kitchen.

Mum-of-three Tanya, from Plymouth, said: "He said, 'that's not for your head' and I showed him the purchase on my phone and he started laughing.

"He got it out the box and said, 'put that on your head'.

"I put it on my head and tried the vibration from it, and said, 'yeah I don't think that is for your head."

Tanya bought the £13.28 'massager' after claiming she saw a thinning patch of hair on the top of her head.

Now she said instead of sending it back for a refund, she plans on keeping it for a "rainy day".

But while Tanya may have got a little confused over her purchase, recently music legend Toni Braxton said she does actually use her sex toy for something entirely different than its main purpose.

The 52-year-old singer revealed the key to her youthful complexion is the use of a vibrator on her face.

Toni claims that the massaging effect of the sex toy works wonders on the skin on her face and says she merrily rubs the vibrating device all over her face and cheeks.

While explaining her personal process, the star also stressed that the vibrator she had bought was used strictly for her facial features and claimed she doesn’t use it for anything else.

She said: “This thing right here, okay, it is…I’m gonna be honest, it is a vibrator. It is, it is a vibrator, but I call it a face tingler.

“It just tingles the muscles in my face to get them activated and working.

“I haven’t used it on anything else other than my face, okay, just FYI.”
