We all know the famous Mop-top. But have any of you tried it. I went for a John a-hard-days-night-john-1 and it looks good!a-hard-days-night-john-6

I even have the curls at the bottom! yeah these!

It may seem sad but that’s me! But anyway I love that style and I will now keep it always. Regardless of what anybody says!

Anyway I would upload photo’s but when it comes to e-safety I think I shouldn’t. (Yeah. I had a huge lecture about it in I.T today)

Anyway. I just thought I would tell you guys. Comment if any of you have tried it!

Well, I convinced my boyfriend into dressing like a Beatle and getting that same haircut(Pssssst, I told him I would kiss him if he did!) He looks pretty fine….sexy even.a-hard-days-night-ringo-9Any boyfriend I have has to meet my “Beatle” conditions.

And no, not as sexy as a Beatle, but you know what I mean, girls.a-hard-days-night-george-3

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8 Is that how you ended up grounded?

I’ve been thinking about getting a haircut, but the idea of walking into a salon with a picture of a guy from the sixties is a little too weird for me.

I don’t suppose anyone has a copy of this?

I told mummy and daddy when you have a bf that looks like a Beatle, you can’t just NOT kiss him!a-hard-days-night-john-2I wish they would understand…by the way, he looks like Johna-hard-days-night-john-6It makes him irresistable. Hehe…

I have a moptop. I’ve always had one really. It’s not quite as thick as The Beatles’ hair yet but now I’ve left school I can grow my hair how I like!

My hair’s not as thick as The Beatles’ (I have fine hair, that is; I’m not going bald), so it’s quite hard to get into a convincing moptop. It is longish on top, though every time it gets to 1965-length it looks a bit lank and needs a cut. Some hairdressers are better than others, I find. The one I go to at the moment seems to get what I’m after and doesn’t cut off too much.

That said, given what I do here, it would be pretty embarrassing if I walked around trying to look like a Beatle. It’s a little like those Elvis fans, Teddy boys or punks who cling on to one style era from the past.

When I was a teenager I had shoulder-length hair in a central parting, and wore granny glasses. I was trying to model myself on John circa the White Album . The few photos I have from that time are pretty embarrassing, but I was young and didn’t know any better. Girls in Bath in the early 90s didn’t really go for the hippy look a-hard-days-night-paul-7

So do I, I have VERY thick hair so I am told by hairdressers every single time they cut my hair. I usually get it thinned out because I went to private school up until this year and they made the boys have short hair so thick hair would look weird. At the moment I haven’t had a haircut in months – enjoying my hair freedom!

I’m bald, but when I have had long hair, I had it in a “John 1968” fashion, sometimes with beard also. Now I have a up-to-date “Peter Gabriel”…

I'd like to say "thank you" on behalf of the group and ourselves and I hope we passed the audition.

Oh, I am going bald… But in my teens –and I’m talking about last century, which makes me feel rather old– I had long hair, shoulder-length, wavy, and a beard. Later on I shaved and had a Mohawk, or a sort-of Mohawk. Then I changed it for a The Police haircut. The eighties, y’know. Now my hair looks like Sting’s (the haircut he has now), or Bruce Willis’ haircut fifteen years ago. I couldn’t have had a Mop-top; The Beatles were cute, and I’m ugly. And I wear granny glasses but not because of John, but because I like the ’20s and ’30s fashion.

I had George’s 1965 mop top but my father forcefully took me to barber and shaved my head, now I have hairs little longer than John’s bald hair (1962)
