Well my parents only take me to get a haircut every 6 weeks and my hair looks so boring and retarded.
Someone on Yahoo suggested spiking up the front of my hair. However my parents won’t let me use gel or anything with chemicals in it. If I was to use any substance, it would have to be organic.
I honestly think this guy gave a good suggestion because not only will it make my hair less boring, but also give me a little extra height.
Tell them that water is a chemical and that if they’re going to ban all chemicals in their house then they’d better get busy dying of dehydration.
Then when they decide they only mean certain chemicals, ask them to give a hard definition because when everything is a chemical it’s hard to tell which ones are acceptable under their standards.
After they round on you for being a smartass, go ahead and use whatever the heck you want in your hair already, because you should be old enough to be making your own decisions about your appearance.
As a non smartass response of my own, I remember the mohawk folks would use thinned water-soluble elmer’s glue (white school glue). I’m sure that counts as a “chemical” to your nitwit parents though.
Have you Googled “organic hair gel”? There are tons of products out there. Ask them to take you to Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s and I’m sure you’ll find something to use.
Anderson Cooper is currently wearing his hair this way. He has like an inch of buzzcut all over and then a very small two inch bit in the front. It’s not really a good look for him. He looks like an aged Tintin, only with less of his lovely silver coloring. He’s like a less ambitious Alfafa.
Anyway. I suggest shaving your head and getting a friend to draw jaguar spots on your skull with henna - like this guy from Ink Master. It’s just henna! It’s all natural! No chemicals*! It’ll all grow out in six weeks but it will give your parents something to worry about for a while.
Completely serious: a tiny dollop of vaseline and your parents won’t even know you’re using it for hair gel. You can tell them it’s strictly for masturbation.
