If Hairs Be Wires, Orange Wires Grow On His Head
Shakespeare, we agree yet again. If I could write a sequel to Twelfth Night, my Malvolio would have to be insprited by this dude…
I don’t know if you, my kind and gentle readers, think I’m kidding about my observations on my way to and from work. Do you recall when I told you that Indian men dye their hair orange with henna?
I wasn’t kidding.
And it doesn’t necessarily look bad. Until it gets flourescent. And then it’s just difficult to discern if his wife was annoyed when she was dying his hair or if he’s making a point with the depth of his color. Like maybe he’s protesting flourescent lights? And, by allah, at least someone is!
My colleague doesn’t look exactly like this. Mainly because my colleague has far thinner hair. And wears checkered suits.
PS - when I say that Indian men dye their hair, please note that I don’t mean all Indian men. I don’t pretend to know in which part of India this is most common. Nor can I shed any light on the reason. All I can say is that I’ve seen it. A lot. And beyond that, I don’t plan on doing any research. xo
