Just so we’re clear – no one actually reads playboy at the barbershop, right? If Playboy is being read at the barbershop I’m going to get super indignant that it’s considered bad form for women to read Fifty Shades of Grey on the train. I know it is bad form because I overheard one woman at work say it was inappropriate. No more double standards! No more!
Okay, now that that’s out of the way – I think this is actually a fairly clever ad. I was going to make some joke about how en’s heads were wrapped in headscarfs and their hair was never seen unil 1962, but then I realized that men were actually wearng a lot of hats before then, so that does kind of hold up. I am surprised they did not incorporate that into their ad.
That said, if the Brazilian wax is the reason men are shaving their heads bald (they all look like giant thumbs, or phallic symbols) I feel badly about that. I feel like that got out of control. Also, can we discuss what the pubic hair equivalent of a mullet is, because that is starting to make me feel like I do not know things about how pubic hair works.
