What Your
Hairstyle Says About You
A
man’s hairstyle is an intensely personal thing. We may talk about it less, we
may hide it better, but we fixate on hair as much as the ladies do. The way you
cut and style your hair provides clues to the rest of the world about how you
see yourself, the cultural tribes you pledge to (either consciously or
unconsciously). So before you arrive for that next interview or drop a line on
that blonde across the bar, do yourself a favour and find out what you’re
announcing with your ’do. (These predictions, by the way, are guaranteed to be
as accurate as a horoscope.)
MOHAWK/Fauxhawk
You suffer from a peculiar delusion that
permits you to look in the mirror, after working your hair into a crusty knife
edge down the middle of your skull, and think, “Yes.” You would like to be a
rebel, as long as being rebellious doesn’t involve doing anything actually
illegal or scary. Maybe some E on the weekends. It’s not your fault there’s a
hole where your self-identity should be. You can take the man out of the bounds,
but you can’t take the bounds out of the man.
The Bald
Spot
Your sense of style sucks. Even for a
regional sales manager. One foot in the grave, son. Hey, only fooling -- that’s
what you think people think when they see your deforested dome, which goes a
long way toward explaining the Corvette. Funny part is, you still spend as much
time messing with it as you did when you had hair. What are you doing in there?
You’ve been known to ask, upon seeing a picture of yourself, “Am I really that
bald?” And if you belong to that bizarre subset of balding men who resort to the
comb-over, your preponderance for self-deception is truly frightening and
possibly clinical
