The dreaded haircut comparison post
Aug. 19th, 2004 10:35 pmSo let it be spoken, so let it be done! Let the haircut be made visible to all! Let it be stripped of its cowl of shadows, and brought into the light of LiveJournal!!! Do ah heah a Halleluiah? Hal-le-luiah!
Drums: Whump whump whump whump whump whump whuuuuuuump!
Here's the old haircut, the haircut of the last few decades (barring the Unfortunate Shearing of '96):

It's maybe unfair to compare a direct sunlight photo with a off-sunlit flash photo, but that's the most recent good photo of that haircut; taken of me outside the San Diego Convention Center, at ComicCon. And below, the new haircut. In the laundry room, after work, a couple days back:

It puffs, I tell you.
And, a special bonus prize just for playing: I try to re-create the Snape look.

Thank you! Thank you! Remember to tip your waiter!

Well, ok. It does look a bit like Snape's hairstyle. But you do not look like Snape!

Plus, with any real notice, can probably spring an evening of weirdness with the Big Name Author Who is Not to be Named.

I look younger than I am, I think...
Maybe so... I actually thought I was the youngest player in HoC when we started, but still I think I was wrong after seeing your pic. (I definitely was the youngest who declared my age.)
