Charlie White: it's about the sport


Things happen, you know.

Most of the US delegation to the Winter Olympics is expected to show support for LGBT Rights in protest to Russia's pogrom on gay people because they believe in the Olympic code of respect for all humans, even if the International Olympic Committee (IOC) choses to do nothing about Putin's Putsch.

But our tousled hair ice dancer Charlie White, seen above, has decided not to say anything about Russia's inhumane treatment of LGBT people.  "It's about sport, not politics."

What say you, HHoF faithful?  Should Charlie and his partner ol' Whats Her Name speak up, or should they aspire to the Olympic ideal of the sport being everything?

We can help with that!

Seniors Day




Wednesday's have become so popular with our senior clientele that we've installed a Senior Snack Wagon in the parking lot.

This is Susie.

She was roommate at Hairlarious. She likes to perm her own hair, leading to disastrous consequences.

While I Was Out

When I left for my vacation (didn't I tell you I was going?  Sorry.)  I put all the lines on hold and when I got back this afternoon, there was 1,728 messages.  As I was deleting them (I figured they were all old, what the hell) I ran across one from the emergency room, something about your mother, and then one from the county morgue.  I think it may have something to do with the delivery out in the alley.


I'm taking the rest of the day off; it smells funny up in here.

Get Ur Weekend On...


and look good doing it!

blondes have more....


Funny Farm

Thank you all for filling in my chair during my extended absence. I have had some ... issues, shall we say. But I have returned!

They let me do a few practice heads when I was...away. Then I would venture out and work for a local salon:
No, really, it was fun. 

Thanks Mark for the pic.

Beauty's Where You Find It


Leota may not be the easiest customer around here - her every-third-Thursdays have been known to clear the joint - but you have to give her credit for not giving up.

Smokin'!


If your hair is nearly as tall as an obelisk, you have earned that ciggie.


Reminder: Service Animals Allowed

But only when properly collared and heeled

Why Not?



As practical as it is attractive.


Mohawk Weather



In Chicago the wind chill is -36.
This guy walked outside with wet hair.
People. Stay indoors! I don't want to see this hideous hairdo happen to you.

Required Reading

Always seeking to be on top of my game, as you can see, I've been doing my homework over the holiday.

Here is a selection from my newly checked out Mr. Kenneth's Complete Book of Hair. (much better than Mr. Kenneth's Partial Book of Hair, by the way.)




After the Holidays...


Come the post-holiday specials!  Hurry in for 30% off on our special seasonal coiffures!  They're even more eye-catching in January!  Limited time only - Limit one new 'do per lucky customer...

[Dammit - I told Kabuki and MJ those freaking ornaments would never sell.  I'll be damned if I'm going to try and cram all those boxes back there in that horror show they call a storeroom.  If it takes all month we're going to offload that junk, and if there's anyone dumb enough to come in for this promotion, I don't care what kind of a loss on an hourly basis the two of them take.  They can make up their chair rent next month for all I care...]

Miss Dawn isn't taking that hint...


Oh, Mr. Pirate,

Your appointment Miss Dawn has been waiting in her chair so long her legs are turning gold with Jaundice.  Like it says, keep Dawn looking her best with just the right hairdo!

Monkey Mama

You can touch her monkeys, but hands-off the hairdo!

Miss You in Mink


I know I haven't been around much lately and I've missed you HHOFers like a hand misses a beer.  Look what they got me for Christmas--a mink coat and hat! 

I says to them, "Yer killin' me! MJ won't let me cover up my hairdo with this fur hat. She worked for hours on my 'do!"

I'll be back in the New Year and I look forward to more Hair Hall of Fame fun...if you'll still have me!

Post-Christmas Sales Stress

Don't lose your head in the rush to return those gifts from Granny...

So, did Santa bring you...

Something nice...

or something naughty?

Tuesday, December 24, 2013

We are "www.thehairhalloffame.com"

Now, before you read this, make sure you take a gander at MJ's most recent post.  Evidently, Mr. TJB has left the breakroom, where's been chain smoking for the last year while weeping about the new nylon styling capes that Donna picked out, and posed for the camera with his Christmas tree.  Aren't they fab?


Well, now on to today's business.

Cookie is in the giving mood and once again. Cookie gives, and gives, and gives, and gives, and all does anyone notice?

No. They just grab take out from No.1 Chinese Restaurant next door without thinking of Cookie.  And Cookie would love an egg roll.

No, they only notice when Norma  is giving "gratification" to the man to whom Norma has just given a 1970s perm.  It's a monkey on his back that we were hoping Norma would shake by now.

Anyway, this Christmas, I am giving you all the gift of a domain name:


www.thehairhalloffame.com 

I had hoped to get it boxed, like Proust, but the GoDaddy doesn't wrap.

Your links should still work, but you may notice that they redirect to this new address.  Remember, that is THE Hair Hall of Fame dot com.  I had to use THE in the address because some miscreant stole "hairhalloffame" before we got to it. Bastard.

Do not panic - www.thehairhalloffame.com address is OURS.

I repeat for those of you who can't put your Candy Crush Saga down long enough to read this mistletoe missive, your only job is DO NOT PANIC.

Do not panic, even if MJ accidentally burns you with the hair iron.  If you feel the need to panic, then get a hold of Felix and he will talk you down off the ledge.

In other gifts, we give you this simple idea, modeled by Donna Lethal and created in 1969 by Muscato when he was all of six.   Jason added the trimmings.  Mr. Peenee stole the gold chains from the pawn shop next door, but he finds as garish as gumball machine trinkets.

We seem to have a two members who have gone AWOL this holiday season.  That Mean Dirty Pirate must be ship wrecked, and he's taken Lucite Box!  Il Duce will just have to go and find him.

Before you leave for the evening, remember that Kabuki Zero is dressed in swaddling clothes center stage in our holiday creche.  Kabuki asks that you place a $20 tip upon his tummy when you leave.  Why?

Because Kabuki, like the baby Jesus, saves.

From all of us to all of you, Merry Christmas, Seasons Greetings, Happy Yule or "We can go out for good Chinese and not have to wait in lines" night.


Tinsel and TJB

Mr. TJB finally emerges from the break room...
