Having being introduced to Aamir Khan’s haircut from Dil Chahta Hai in the early part of this century, I have tried to sport the same hairstyle since then. I was on the better side of 30 then, and thought it looked cool. I have persisted with this look (except for during my wedding) amidst protests from the wife, family and friends and importantly the hair stylist (ok ok, the barber!!). My short crop was seen as spikes, to be indulged in by kids, or college students, and not by working professionals. Though whenever I looked into the mirror, I saw a George Clooney look alike, with some shades of gray around the temples. I don’t know what the fuss was all about… can’t stand another Clooney, heh?
Anyways, recession has struck of the hairline kind. Some parts of the greying skull has shown some signs of stagnating growth. This has called for drastic measures. A quick analysis of the problem has been done by Megs, and as a interim solution, flowing locks has been recommended – a trackback to jab we met. Not the Shahid Kapur one silly, to when Megs and I met. But on second thoughts – it may just make me happier – a Jab We Met. Plus it provides some more happy advantages –
- Covers my bald patches
- Gives me a serious look
- I don’t have to show my driving licence for a “A” movie
- With winter setting in, I can now be like a woolly sheep and provide warmth to all
- My body weight shows positive growth
So, while the Shahid look is desirable, there is some danger of having the Shahrukh Khan post Om Shanti Om look, or even the Tere Naam, or he Yuvraaj look of Salman. But this would still be better than the Akshaye Khanna look!!
So while, I do this hairzardous job of controlling recession, a chat with Santa is on to get some fancy hair sprays and hair creams. Good looks hair I come!
