Hair Boys

Boys with pretty hair are soooooo in right now. How else can we explain Tim Urban’s lengthy run on “American Idol?” If Justin Beiber were selling a line of shampoo, he’d die a zillionaire! He’d never have to make girls faint at a mall again.

Before we make fun of the swooning tweens and teens, we have to acknowledge our own hair boys. The Jacksons inspired the Jheri curl movement. (Yes, I had one in the 8th grade. I loved what it did to my hair when I went swimming). Remember the hair band era? If you were or are a big fan of the Beatles or even Prince, then you’ve swooned over a man’s hair too! Mullet fans, who wore it better, Billy Ray Cyrus or Lionel Richie?

Face it girls, we are far more hair obsessed than most of us are willing to admit. Remember the shocking tabloid headlines about Charlie Sheen’s buzzed head? So, when your daughter has a bad case of Beiber Fever or you just can’t figure out what she sees in L’il Wayne…. just remember the days when you wanted to be front row at the Snoop Doggy Dogg concert.
