Haircuts and Hairstyles

I remember when men would go to the barbershop and get just a regular haircut like a fade, get a line up or a trim.  Same with women when they go to the hair salon they would get braids, a decent hairstyle, get their ends clipped, get some highlights or even get some weave put in.  Even some of the old school haircuts are coming back like the high top fade or having your name or other words cut into your hair.  But these days, it’s crazy what some of these people are coming into the barbershops or hair salons asking for or even what they do to their hair after they leave the shop.  Since when did the mohawk haircut make such a comeback?  And when was it ever in style?  And who decided to put different color hair dye in their hair with it and cut words on the side like the old school regular haircuts?  They should have “Something is wrong with me, HELP ME!!!!” cut in the side if they have a mohawk.  They look like Mr. T on drugs.  Men if you need to use an afro pick for your mohawk, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!  I understand if some guys do it for a sport or something short term.  And Wiz Khalifa got all these kids and some adults putting yellow dye in their hair.  But what would you do if you were to spill the dye in your hair?  Now you look like a circus clown without the make-up.  And why are some women getting fades or just cutting one side of their hair.  Word of advice, just like some men with mohawks, just because Amber Rose looks good with a very short hairstyle doesn’t mean you do.  If your head is shaped like a bullet, football or a cone head women, you shouldn’t cut all your hair off.  If you still try to pull it off with you head looking like a bullet, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  This is where you will know who your true friends are because they would tell you that’s not a good look.  Some women look very good with a short haircut.  Also with these sometimes weird hairstyles, I’m starting to see a somewhat role reversal in terms of hair.  I’ve seen men with long dreads & braids talking to women with fades & mohawks.  Wow, is this what the world is coming to?

Haircuts and hairstyles are just like what I was talking with clothes, they all don’t go with everybody.  Celebrities are also victims of bad haircuts and hairstyles too.  Just because you see someone else with haircut doesn’t mean you need to get it.  Be yourself and except who you are.  The only person that can change what you are or want to be is you.  Be a leader not a follow.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool.
