Rock Star To Marine Corps In One Minute

19 comments

I don’t know about you, but every couple of years I get sick of being mistaken for a rock star, tired of women chatting me up all the time and have had enough of guys looking at me with jealousy in their eyes. When I can’t stand any more I decide it’s time to get my hair cut off to scare them all away!

Ok, all of that is a complete lie. What I meant to say was that every couple of years I get sick of shampooing and conditioning my hair all the time, tired of having to try and make it look anything other than a total shambles and have had enough of it getting in the way and making me overly hot when playing football. When I can’t stand it any more I decide it’s time to get my hair cut off so I can focus on the important things in life – and stop being obsessed with my hair!

And today was just such a day. Time to switch from rock star to military man. So here is that transformation process in all its glory courtesy of my lovely assistant. Sort of like going from a moth to a caterpillar. (If you can’t see it in your feed reader, click here).

There, all gone! And I’ve got lots of hair to start work on a Yeti costume! πŸ™‚

  1. Private Connors!!!!!

    All you need is a uniform, and you’d look better than a rock star πŸ™‚

    The hair dresser looks quite glamorous too.

    It looked itchy though. Those stray hairs don’t go unnoticed, do they?

  3. Thanks for the hair update! Can we expect another round of avatar updates? πŸ˜‰ Was that a grade two?

    What did you use to film that? Nice toaster BTW!

    • Nah, I can’t be bothered updating all those avatars! By the time I’ve finished the hair will have grown back!

      I used my old digital compact as the iPhone would need some sort of stand to film the scene, or I’d have needed a helper monkey. And yeah, the toaster rocks!
