This is a (poor) artist's impression of a very strange haircut that I often see on daytime chat shows. In essence, what you do is plaster your main hair to your head, then pull out individual strands of fringe, dip them in sunflower oil, and stick them to your forehead. Do you have this hairstyle? Do you know anyone who does? If so, can you explain why anyone would want it? It looks jolly silly, let alone slightly grubby. The wearer invariably has a pasty complexion and clothes made of nylon. My own hair (fine to the point of near-transparency, curly in an irritating way that is not heavy curls or waves, but unruly semi-frizz), naturally qualifies me as a Hair Critic.
Coming Soon: What not to wear if you're on the porky side. Includes short sleeves, bare midriffs, leggings, backless tops and very tight jeans with vests.

I find myself bemused by virtually all modern (blokes') hairstyles. This has been increasingly the case since the era of Britpop or thereabouts when hairdressers discovered a rich vein of tonsurial gold in making gentlemen's locks expensively untidy. It all looks kind of shit to me.
The fact that I've lost (well where did you have it last?) most of my own hair has, of course, no bearing on my thoughts on this matter.
I could also say stuff about young men's saggy arsed trousers and Andie Mac-Fucking-Dowell but we'd be here all day.
I kinda have this haircut.
Do not be so down on young people's voluminous trousers. They perform a useful public service by mopping up puddles that you or I might otherwise step in.
Could include 'not leaving the house without a top on' in WNTW4Porkies? I know that one probably seems obvious to most people, but I couldn't help noticing that last summer's heatwave caused a plague of flappy boobed blokes to go wandering around bare breasted. I really think we ought to do everything we can to avoid a recurrence of this horrific phenomena...
I crave a hairstyle. I settle for my tried and true ponytail.
Dave - is the end of the world as we know it. I went out with someone once who had more face creams than I do, and that's saying something. I like men who forget to have their hair cut.
HCG - shut up, no you don't.
Julia - yes, we can. And that includes the ladies. As a porker of some years standing myself, I have VERY STRONG VIEWS on these matters.
Snogash - was that your given name? At least you have enough hair to put in a ponytail. If mine gets that long, people ask me if I am deficient in vitamins.
Ok...let's see
You've just spent the weekend in Glasgow and now posts like this appear.
Coincidence? I think not.
NWM- I came up with SnogAsh as my AIM name/email addy my freshman year of high school. OASIS has been my favorite band since I was 13 and I used to read Face, Melody Maker, NME, Q and Select (?) in bookstores while I yearned to be British. That's how I learned what snogging meant and about the band Ash. Hence, SnogAsh. Somehow, it's stuck.
