"February 21, 2011 will forever be known as THE DAY JUSTIN BIEBER CUT HIS BEAUTIFUL HAIR. Life as we know it will NEVER be the same. Never. Ever, ever."

This is the opening line from TMT.com. Honestly, I don't like Justin Bieber, not because he is too young to make millions of US dollars, but because I don't like his songs. Why don't I like his songs? Well, because I'm too old to hear a 14-15-16-year-old boy singing love song to an even younger girl. I'm way over that age! And! I don't like continual repetition of "Baby". It's like brainwashing!

But his hair is really impressive! I mean, how many boys in Hong Kong are following this hairstyle? Basically, countless! Everybody wants a part of his hair, worldwide! And it is more like it is the hair that makes his famous, not his songs, or his musical talents, or his young age! Can you name some stars who first became famous because of the hairstyle? Or maybe, can you name any stars that has a signature hairstyle? I can name a lot! Try taking a look at this website here!

Let's see how Justin does his hair!

Reminds me of what Les Grossman (Tom Cruise) said in the following video:


"You have just flush you xxxxing career, down the toilet!" -- Les Grossman

And Les Grossman is right, stars can fall and rise simply because of a change in hairstyle.Well, wish Justin good luck!

Just in case you want to revise your hairstyle terminology, you can revisit Vocabulary: Hairstyle Terminology
and Vocabulary: BaldnessTerminology. What is Justin Bieber's hair called? Is it a fringe or a flip? Well, looks like it doesn't matter anymore.

Vocabulary:
repetition -- [U] when you do or say something again
brainwash -- [T] disapproving to make someone believe something by repeatedly telling them that it is true and preventing any other information from reaching them
Brazilian Blowout -- (n)[U] mentioned in Les Grossman (Tom Cruise) video. See picture below.
