8. Clairol
As a company that deals in hair products, Clairol was doing very well in the Unites States of America. The reason being they offered quality products at reasonable prices. Because of such success, they introduced a curling iron in 2006 and named it the “Mist Stick” which did exceptionally well in the country. But, when they took the product to Germany, it didn’t do as well as they thought it would. Apparently “Mist” in German means “manure”. So, basically people were seeing the “manure stick” in cosmetic shops around the country. Who would want one of that and what would they really use it for? Hilarious when you picture it really.
