My dad texted me tonight saying he was excited to go to the Father John Misty show soon. I bought him & myself tickets for his birthday. The weird thing is, he also sent a selfie (incredibly unlike my father) saying, and I quote, "I better wear a hippie t-shirt so I don't get mobbed for my cop/republican haircut. Talk about unintended consequences!" This caught me off guard, but my dad is a strange and humorous guy with nothing against cops or Republicans, I think he was simply stereotyping this particular concert-going crowd.
Which ties into something I've been thinking about a lot lately, regarding my haircut, the typical hipster short-sides-long-top cut. Has this hairstyle been taken over by the alt-right, and us hipsters have to just move on? Is this hairstyle no longer acceptable?
I'm probably reading into this too much, but I don't want anyone to judge us for our haircuts and it's a touchy political climate out there so I want to distance myself as much as possible from the president.
I want your opinions on haircuts. Do you think the high & tight, or any hair cut has been taken over by the alt-right, or are there any other haircuts linked with political movements?
His hair is cropped short, standard Dad stuff, but is this a thing? I am pretty isolated to the city life, which is pretty diverse, so I have no idea if people in the 'burbs are giving my dad shit for looking like a "Cop/Republican."
