The Kaye Effect

On dribbling shampoo from a small height above a pool of the same shampoo below, every now and then liquid lanyards of shampoo leap forth in a behaviour referred to as the Kaye effect. Such behaviour is characteristic of a viscoelastic fluid.

@KevinSilentControl thats because of the viscosity from the falling liquid vs still liquid

As we all know, dirty hair is really at the root of Africa's problems right now.

Is it just me or, when there is a continuous lanyard of shampoo going off into the container below, it look like the shampoo is spraying up from the reservoir going from left to right back up the dish?
