ReplyDeleteDon't tell me that stinky jheri curl juice is back in style!!!
ReplyDeleteThey not have some sort of a Fro Mohawk. It looks like the hair cut they had in the 90s. You remember where it looked liked they had a plate on their head?
ReplyDeleteSadly cell phones or as they would say sail phones have replaced boom boxes to play their favorite rap music
An Arsenio Hall/Bobby Brown "gumbey"? I thought the fades were the best thing for classy Black men. This new thing of cutting that straight line across their forehead, into their natural hairline, is atrocious. These new hi-def TV's nailed that one for me. You can see the follicles where that "line" was cut out. Wierd.
ReplyDeleteWhen the barber cuts the back of my hair, I have to tell them not to cut into my hairline. It's not right. And you have to shave it daily, like your face.
