Dating as far back as the bible one can find evidence or references to the importance of a well coiffed woman and man. According to one of the original stories about Samson and Delilah, in the bible, it has been told though stories of folklore, that Samson lost his strength and power when Delilah rendered him intoxicated and then cut off ALL of his hair! OMG!
I have enjoyed many conversations and debates with my friends and clients which encompass the connection and the division between what is self- preservation & vanity. One friend (decline to mention his name for confidentiality’s sake) absolutely refused to visit a “SALON,” particularly the one his daughter and wife go to. Would not even consider using a product, besides the “greasy kid stuff” he’d been accustomed to from his barber shop of years gone by. Finally he acquiesced. That was several years ago. He is a man who is making a difference in our world, quietly behind the scenes, negotiating global contracts which encompass our safety. He speaks publicly to the power houses who have the ability to perpetuate his quest and ours for communication on a global level for a better world, a safer environment. The point is, he’s engaged in far more important subjects than the state of his hair.
He has confirmed my theory that it IS more than a haircut. When you know your hair is fabulous, you can take that piece off the back burner and concentrate on what’s important; that speaking engagement, meeting, conference, interview, head shot, photo op. With strength and power, a skip in your step; and obviously with confidence.
