April 30th is the day to appreciate hairstyles. In some
places, it is called Hairstylist Appreciation Day. Either way, this is something
unique. If this is the way to celebrate days, we will begin having appreciated
the grass day, appreciate the cities day and so on. But thinking about it,
hairstylists do play a big part in making us feel good.
In the modern days, appearances make a difference, sometimes
a very big difference. The multibillion-dollar anti-ageing industry depends on
that desire to look good. So do fashion designers and makeup industry. It is no
more ageing as you do or look as nature made you or wear simple clothing with
the main objective of covering oneself. It is all very different now.
The first wrinkle makes people rush to their dermatologists.
Nobody wants to look aged. People want to look as if years made no difference
to their looks. It is the age of plastic surgery to look younger and buying
the latest cream or lotion that promises youth.
The clothes are no longer plain clothes to make you cover your
body, but to make a fashion statement. Latest designer wear that may look
bizarre at times is in vogue. People are in search of the unique look that
desires envy. Similarly, makeup is no longer a plain foundation or a simple
lipstick. It is a big opportunity for the cosmetic industry to sell concoctions
that will make an eighty-year look like one of sixteen. It is all strange but
true. We are all getting mass mesmerized by the big corporates in acting as
they want us to do. Why not hair stylists then?
After all hairstyle also makes a statement. You can have a
hairstyle that makes you look like a thinker or one that gives you a sporty
look. It is no more cutting the hair and styling them, but it is more of giving
you a look that will make you feel different. Are we all not losing the real
essence of life in all this?
