Is It Just Me? Or Is Chekov's hair back in style?

[AC84]

Not that horrible mop top giant tribble wig we saw in his early appearances, but the realistic one we saw later on. I swear to Vaal, I saw a few teenagers at the mall that were either a little younger than me or in college. I had to look at them for a minute, and sure enough the Beatles seem to be big again hair wise.

I blame Harry Potter for all these shaggy hair-dos.

While I don't think long, stringy, dirty hair looks good, I also think crew cuts and buzz cuts look ridiculous. Some people just don't have a head for stubbly hair.

Yeah, I have seen that mop hairstyle come back in teenagers, most notably while I run at the gym.

It appears to be more "unkempt" than a fashion style, if you ask me...or maybe I am just getting old at 32 (Who at 14-20, who he himself grew a "mullet.").

And so this should be taken as proof that beehive hairstyles and mini-skirts could easilly be normal in the TOS era, since styles come and go and repeat.

^ That's always been my justification as well.

The hairstyle in reference is mostly associated with the indie/hipster movement and has been around for a few years now. In fact, I have that hairstyle right now.

You all have permission to make fun of me now. Just try not to let your ageism show.

Chekov was emo before emo was emo.

Chekov was emo before emo was emo.

And The Monkees were Chekov before Chekov was Chekov.

Are you admitting to being a hipster doofus? -- RR

Chekov was emo before emo was emo.

Except that Chekov made use of a little thing we call facial expressions

Yes.

Say nuclear wessels.

And The Beatles were The Monkees before The Monkees were The Monkees.

And late 19th century "children of the corn" school boys were The Beatles before The Beatles were The Beatles.
