1) Style 1 was the trailblazer, leaving a path for the next 2 styles to follow. This trailblazer was a mohawk. The cut was sparked by a desire to create team comradery before both Conception Day and our New Zealand adventure. On the eve of Conception Day, 6 mohawks in total were cut in my bedroom. All 6 mohawks traveled to New Zealand, 4 of us in the same spaceship rental vehicle. The picture below shows me doing a Tim Tam Slam....with a mohawk.
2) Style 2 emerged halfway through the NZ roadtrip. I began to notice that strangers spoke to me more frequently when I wore a beanie and my mohawk was hidden. Plus, I figured a week of comradery was plenty! I then cut my hair in to arguably the only possible uglier look than a mohawk --a rat-tail.However, rat-tails are popular in NZ. I felt it was appropriate for week 2 of the trip. However, looking at it now.....it was pretty filthy!
3) Style 3 was my final attempt to look like a doofus. The rat-tail was shaven off, but my resemblance to Curious George then became more apparent (see picture below). My hair has now grown back slightly and it is a little more useful --it keeps my head warmer when it is windy. A mullet is now the only hair-style that looms in my curiosity...
Chris Hanson called he needs your address for an upcoming episode of "To catch an Aussie Predator" with that hair cut you must be a repeat offender.
ReplyDeleteAustralia seems to offer everything, except a mirror. Your future must include basketball at the University of Utah, that is the only place that hair-don't could fit in with the crowd. Walk into a beauty shop and ask for an application, then demand to speak to the manager, explain that this is the haircut you received the previous day. They will offer hush money, if not threaten to protest all week in front of their shop. Maybe even threaten to go to the media. If funky hair means you are in college, you are in college.
Love ya, just won't look at you.
Dad
I always thought you kinda looked like curious george
ReplyDeleteDad, Do you mean that you wouldn't hire someone with my haircut as a babysitter?? As I was writing this update, I somehow sensed a sexual predator comment was brewing from you. hahaha And Chris Hanson did call for my address. I gave him our home address....I think they are just using me as a stepping stone to catch the big fish in the lake. Watch yo'self!
ReplyDeleteMaxwell, I will not argue looking like curious george....but you are the brother in Little Miss Sunshine. Enjoy your silent rebellion!
