My Hair

[IndieSinger]

I need help. But that's neither here nor there, on with the question. I know how I want my hair, but describing it to a salon is going to be difficult. At the moment, my hair looks like this: http://tinyurl.com/2dj8d - and - http://tinyurl.com/yqd9m - now you see that mohecany-type-spikey back bit? I want that all over my head and I want it blondish. What do I ask for in the hair salon? Not a mohican or a mohawk, because that implies a muckle tall fan on your head with shaved sides and I don't want anything like that. So to all the people who work in salons *COUGH*^Tat*COUGH* - does it have a trendy '� la mode name? Bonus points to anyone who can tell me the trendy name in German (and minus points to anyone who mentions the word Irokesen(schnitt)).

Ask for a mullet, and if it's not quite what you're looking for then at least it'll be a good sourse of amusement for many. A mullet indeed....which is mulletunspielen in German by the way

[Greedyfly]

Mullets are very trendy at the moment

[beenee]

Indiesinger, you're cute!

Hi Indie. Have you tried scanning the men's magazines (no,not that sort!), or hair styling magazines for pictures? Is there someone 'famous' with the same/similar hair style you desire that you could refer to? Can you draw a picture of it yourself?!!! I'm lucky - I have the hair style you want every morning when I get out of bed!!!! :-D

[Tat]

as i've told you many time before mate the term is 'wanky fashion hair' (like mine!)... or take a photo in (of my hair!) and show them. he is cute ain't he beenee - and funny too (by that i mean funny ha ha not funny peculiar, although now i come to think about it... ;)) xxxx

[Tat]

also - i've made it into a question... i can now die happy! cheers my leeeetle cheeeeekeeeen wiiing!

OK this thread went better than I thought! I was preparing myself for a barrage of abuse and insults!

Roxy: Yes I could ask for a mullet so that other people can have a good ol' laugh at me. I could also coat myself in tar and feathers and dance to The Birdie Song with a rose up my arse.

Greedyfly: Am I right in thinking mullets are even more fashionable if they're a different colour? I think little mullets (like wot Tat has) are really trendy and look dead nice.

flirty: Blummin' good idea, that. I had a look through a lot of girls' hairstyle ideas magazines, but they rarely devote more than one page to men's cuts. I did, however, have a good ol' look through a lot of gay men's magazines. But again, back to the question; trying to find what I want it a bit needle and haystacky at the moment. I will keep my eyes open for famous people with it, but they will need to be famous in Germany too. What I might do is print off the pictures of myself and see if the hairdresser fancies me. No, I mean I'll see if I can explain it by the pictures of my bonce.

Tat: The term "Wanky Fashion Hair" is absolutely 100% spot on. Unfortunately, only you and I understand it. Plus, in German, it would come out as "Masturbation Fashion Hair".

beenee: My number is 078...

You should say

"I need help. But that's neither here nor there, on with the question. I know how I want my hair, but describing it to a salon is going to be difficult.

and then show them the photos of yourself so that they know what your hair looks like now. Or better still, take a computer along with you so that they can have the fun of clicking on the links themselves. Then they might have an idea of what you want.

Afterwards, if they have mucked it up and not done what you want, come back here and ask us how to sue the hair salon.

for some reason IndieSinger, I always assumed you were a girl :O

[archbishop]

He is,( a big girls blouse that is).

[IndieSinger]

clarabel7 - lots of people do on here and I still haven't heard a reasonable reason why..! Singers can be male too..!

archbishop - that was almost funny.

[bernardo]

Oi! Indie! Where are my three stars which I deserve for my extremely brilliant and witty answer?

Incidentally, I have never even thought of anyone on this group being anything in particular apart from names.
