Asian People And Their Hair.........

Have you ever seen the movie Harry Potter? Or even better....... read the book? Now in the movie/book, there's this nasty super evil guy called Voldemort... I will just call him V-Man. And basically to keep things short, V-Man separated his soul into a bunch of different things called Horcruxes.... so that he's IMMORTAL. In reality, the hair (on the head.......) of most Asian people is the Horcrux of their soul and character. Their hair defines who they are, it provides confidence and happiness when it looks good, while also shaming them when it's not "done" and perfect. You could be all like "but wait!!!?!!? Doesn't the hair style of ANYBODY define who they are? And not just Asian people alone?" Well counterargument thought, I like to see Asian people as the mother of hair fashion..... that gave birth to little followers the sense that their hair....... should have a personality of its own. Its a funny thought to know that there are infinite amounts of females AND males that spend countless hours in front of a mirror.... looking at their hair...... fixing their hair....... having an intrinsic LD debate with their hair...... when roughly 1800 years ago..... people were forced to have one hair style....... OR BE EXECUTED!!!!!!!!!! When I look at guys today looking at a mirror, with their middle finger ever so gently moving 10 strands of hair to the right side of face, without disrupting the rest of his hair ecosystem.... It is hard for me to accept them as men. It almost feels like a extremely sinewy female, wearing a slightly faded black sleeveless shirt doing squat thrusts...... whatever a squad thrust is....... if you get the picture.... it's just wrong. Since when was it normal for a man to emulate the actions of a woman....... and sometimes..... dress like a woman ... *ehmmm*ehmm**cought*  South Korean fashion *cough*cough* .................*faint*
Then you have all the little girls and boy-girls... and girly boys that try to just follow how every one else is dressing to "fit in".... and soon enough....... you have guys with hair as long as girls..... wearing jeans so skinny, that it replaces their skin...... all while fixing their hair. I know one guy, I won't say the name..... that is proved by several sources, who fixes their hair 30 minutes every morning. Every morning. For what reasons? I dunno........ maybe it's because he's trying to fit in? Maybe it's a fashion statement? Maybe because he thinks it looks good on him.... but most importantly.......... is it necessary? If you leave long hair in the winter because it keeps your head warm... props to you. I do the same. But if you're still leaving the long spiked on the left side but only fairly spiked on the other, but curved to the left on the front..... in ninety degree weather. Something is wrong. If you have read one of my earlier blog posts "Make-Up?" (http://writing4fun2day.blogspot.com/2010/02/normal-0-false-false-false.html), the situation explained there is very similar to the problem with the obsession over hair. People who has invested their hair as a Horcrux of their character call it "it looks good on me", but I call it pure conformity. If every male was to go bald in this world, because they thought it was the new style, would a person who thought their hair looked good, still obsess over the style of his hair? I don't understand why, when looking into a crowd of Asian teens, they truly DO LOOK THE SAME. They all try mimic one style, have one style of hair with only slight variations. As if their life goal is to look like a cartoon anime character..... and their SAT scores xD

As for me, I don't have any hair, so I can't really "fashion it up". 

But thanks for reading!

Oh I'm glad you've written this piece, David. I've long wanted to make a comment about boys' hair myself. I do think most of their hair styles look the same, and I can't help asking: Why do they have to wear long hair, or floppy hair getting so much in the way that literally half of their face is shielded from proper vision? And it's not like either styles look good anyway!!

I like YOUR hair style David ... short, crisp, and most importantly -- it's the hair style of a sunny, healthy boy ... =)
