sOaP Or ShaMpOO ?

That is exactly the first thing that comes to my mind the moment i see a bright glare radiating from a shiny bald head in the distance. Do bald people use shampoo or soap to wash their heads? I mean we are supposed to use shampoo on our hair just like the sexy actresses in all those TV commercials command us to do, but bald people don't really have any hair so shouldn't they use normal body soap even on their heads? i often wonder...


Baldness in all its extremities has always puzzled me.
On one side we have our Hindu sadhus and Sanyasis whose long strands of tresses and curls (which could probably even give Rapunzel a run for her money) seem to be a prerequisite for attaining Moksha or salvation.

However if we look a little towards the east on the other hand , we see Buddhist monks sporting the 'hot David Beckam bald look ' in all its serenity and tranquility claiming it to make them feel lighter and closer to god.
who do we believe?

Everyday we see advertisements such as
"BLAH BLAH ‘S HOMEOPATHY CLINIC : remedial solutions to hair loss , homeopathy has the answer"… and just below it you might see the same institution advertising bout its "completely painless body hair removal plan through BLAH BLAH LASIK THERAPY".

This leaves me even more perplexed. We pay to remove hair on one body part and pay even more to grow it back somewhere else?
Repositioning eh?..

Whoever decided that the social convention should be to sport hair on our heads and to trim it away if it dares to grow anywhere else?
What if chest hair was the socially accepted norm and not the present trend of head hair?
Imagine seeing people roaming around on the streets in front less shirts showing off their center-parted , spiked , mushroomed , mohawked and what not'd chest hair..
wow..even the mental image is freakish.



O GANJU PATEL ,
TERI KHOPDI MEIN TEL..

Haven't we all as kids used this ageless pun to tease bald people?
But it doesnt make any sense! Why would a bald person use hair oil?
that'd be like someone sprinkling the roads with water and manure hoping for trees to grow out of them..

Dont misjudge me, I am not out there propagating a ‘bald holocaust’ of some sort..quite the contrary in fact.
i believe baldness has a lot of positive aspects too. Fine , you might not be able to head bang to your favorite adrenaline pumping stoner rock songs , but if you wish to damage someone irreparably, head-butt's are the way to go..( courtesy - zinedine zidane)

Coming over to the bald and the beautiful section -

1) TOUGH GUY LOOK - bald men naturally get an unprecedented tough guy look.
(om puri , raghu ,vin diesel, stone cold steve austin )

2) SEXY - Heck, bald is even the new sexy these days
(Britney spears , lisa rae , david beckam , demi moore)

3) SPORTS – More than 3 quarters of the whole N.B.A fraternity is black..i mean bald :p

4)ENTERTAINMENT- And how can we forget our lovely,idiotic,beer drinking , donut stuffing homer simpson who is the epitome of all that is shiny and bald.

Phew! that is a lot of bald people.Perhaps if we all decided to go bald like them , the multi million dollar hair-care industry would go out of business. We wouldn't want that now would we?

So go ahead pamper yourself, get a haircut ,good shampoo,curls , spikes,oils ,hairsprays and the likes and enjoy your lovely silky auburn,blond ,black or red hair and if by chance god forbid , some years down the line you start loosing them , you do know that there's always room for more on the ever shiny ,ever glowing bald and the beautiful parade..
