Be Still! This I repeat to myself when I see my 14 year old son transform his hair to “manga” hair. No not the fruit, but the japanese comic book genre usually in black and white where they have all those over stylized characters mostly refered to as ‘anime’.
Our grocery list includes a wax specifically for Manga hair and Lynx cologne (which is probably the twin of Axe in PI).
I could of course stop buying him this stuff but that wouldn’t stop him from using his dad’s cologne or mine. He could also just start creating a gel made out of cooked rice and glue and that would cost me heaps too (ala Dexter’s laboratory)
As it is, he uses my hair dryer and iron. He wakes up early and does a ritual of drying his hair & ironing it to style, then comes the wax part that seems to take forever. If we wanted him to come with us to some event, we have had to tell him at least 2 hours prior so he would have time to complete his hair do. The hub calls it his mini antennas.
He twitches his head as he walks which really looks so Gay for me. He thinks it is cool. I was once a teenager and I did crazy things to my hair but Insoy tops the hair category.
No typhoon or tsunami will get his hair down. *kidding* of course.
Oh, for the sake of vanity, I close my eyes and keep still hopeful that 5 years from now, his obsession will somehow die down and we would laugh at all his pictures come his wedding day. Oh, I can’t wait. :p
hahaha! ulitawo na jud, chi! winner imong last paragraph. pero…eherm…sure ka? na ready na ka anang wedding-wedding? =P haha. jk.

Hahaha! Kalingaw sad ni Insoy! Ulitawo na gyud, di na kapugngan! My brother was like that at one stage of his life, Chi! Eventually, gikapuyan na ug atiman sa iyang hair, nagpa-upaw nalang! But some people never grow out of it and I think there’s really nothing wrong with it.
i encourage him to look good and happy that mao pa ni iyang opisyo. but naa lang gyuy time nga maugtas mi hinuwat kay dugay kaayo mahuman tan-aw sa samin. hehehe

LOL! Ulitaw na, Chi! As long as they are happy! It must be so much fun to see your kids grow (or morph into something you never imagined. hehe).
He reminds me so much of Clark. He puts gel on his hair each time he goes to the mall. Haha.
mga metrosexual na ang new generation. which is good actually kay concern sila sa ilahang looks. but dios mio, mas dugay pa sila mahuman nako. i hope basti won’t be worst.

5 years? That’s way too long. They go in phases and I bet you next year it will be a different fad.
you have a good point.
