I spiked Jack's hair in the bath tub last night. Couldn't believe how long it is in the back...compared to the front! He reminded me of a little stegosaurus dinosaur...or in this case, a Jack-o-saurus.
Which then raised the question...is he getting a rat tail? (Grandma & Great Aunts - see definition of "rat tail" below.)Definition of a rat tail (from Wikipedia)
A rattail is a hair style that is characterized by a long "tail"-like element of hair growing downward from the back of the head. The rattail usually curls naturally; however, it can be braided, treated as adread, permed, straightened, or curled with an iron. In some instances, an individual might choose to grow several tails as opposed to a single very long tail.
The rattail saw a brief period of mainstream popularity during the 1980s and has rapidly fallen out of vogue.However, it has recently seen renewed popularity.
Uh, someone needs to flag that Wikipedia article! The rattail has not seen renewed popularity... some people just never let it go!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Jessica.. it is not in style! I hope it never comes back... that is one I can live without! I like Jack's hair however if his rattail gets fuller and longer then it will have to go!
