Button Down Collar Without A Tie; What’s The Protocol??

I was sitting in a meeting at my job watching the division manager lead a presentation. While gesticulating wildly, I watched as the unbuttoned collar on his button down shirt flipped and flopped with every movement, just like Mitt Romney at a campaign stop.

And I wondered aloud to myself; “What is the protocol for that?”

Obviously, with a tie the collar better be buttoned down or you’ll like an idiot. But what about sans tie? For the answer, I needed a random sampling. And for that, I went to this thread on catholic.com; because where else would you even go?

Based on a sampling of 56 dudes, 67.86% (38) of respondents said they still button them regardless of no tie.

What do you do, sir? Leave a comment below.

“Iguana” Touch It??

 

In the past on barbershopblog.com we’ve documented haircuts with portraits of notable humans carved into the sides of people’s heads. But this time, we’re going to dip into the animal kingdom.

To hell with the faux hawk- there’s a new sheriff in town. Say hello to the “Iguana Cut”. Pay special attention to the tail- sans iguana on top, it would be a bitchin’ “Rat Tail”. Just like the 80’s, it’s “rat-ical”.

Either way, it’s still better than Carolina Panthers QB Jimmy Clausen’s haircut.

White Socks With Black Shoes; And Other Ways To Show You Don’t Care How You Look

The other day, on a whim, I wore white socks with black shoes to my workplace as a sort of generational study. Before I even sat down, the 22-25 year old demographic was all over my ass.

“Nice look, grampa; are you color blind?” “All you need is a blazer and you’d BE Don Johnson.” “Looks like somebody doesn’t plan on getting laid.”

I took the abuse and moved on, swiftly, to the 38-61 demographic.

“Paulie E, rocking the white socks- reminds me of the 70’s; good times.” “Paul, those white socks make you look like you’re walking faster through the office.” “I can tell by your white socks that you just don’t give a shit and I like it.”

Tell me that Michael Jackson didn’t look cool in the video for “Billie Jean”- tell me!!

I guess it’s a generational thing; just like chest hair.

Hair Weave Thefts On The Rise

 

You may find this as “unbe-weavable” as I did. As this article details, thieves or (“thi-weaves”) across the country are stealing weaves made of human hair, presumably to re-sell them on the black market. Don’t “be-weave” it? Check out this video as the “Weave Thieves”  smash and grab their way to longer, more luxurious hair.

Weaves made of real human hair are called “remy hair” and can go for several hundred or even thousand dollars. So if someone tries to accost you for your hair weave, simply tell them to “weave” you alone.
