Head One: Our first hairdo is that belonging to Mike Score, and no, I don't know if that is his real last name; however, for the rest of this post he shall be known simply as "the Score". Returning to the purpose of the post, I think that it is pretty obvious which one he is in the picture (would I be blogging about any of the others' hairstyles?) If you are still not sure for any reason, here is a second hint to his identity: he is the one that used to be a hairstylist. Bonus points, however, if you can tell which one is his brother.
Head Two: Our second hairstyle in this head to head comes from Madeline. First, I would like to take a moment to just say that I personally think she rocks this hairstyle better than "the Score" does, but perhaps that is because she is simply cuter. Second, I would also like to point out that Amy and I don't create this hairstyle on purpose, nor do we let her go out like this. This hairdo is a consequence of Amy insisting on putting Madeline's hair in those vertical ponytails that she loves so much (the she here being Amy), and that can be seen in previous posts. So what do all of you think? Legit? Not legit? Too Legit (2 quit)?
Oh Snap! Bonus Head: To be totally honest, when Amy and I started to discuss Madeline's ridiculously cool new hairstyle, the "the Score" comparison was not the first that came to my mind; it was actually a short scene from the movie Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls. By raising this comparison, endorsing this movie as its humor doesn't really strike me the way that it did in junior high. Simply put, I just think that the hairstyle is more similar.
All that being said, in the end, I do have to go with Amy in saying the Flock of Seagulls 'do wins. Reason One: A more consistent style. While "the Score" did not always have his hair styled the same, it lasted more than one music video (approximately equal in screen time of the scene where Ace's hair was in the pictured state). There is something to say for longevity, and the willingness to put in the effort to make your hair continually look like this. My second reason is that, as a father, I would much rather have my daughter listen to Flock music than watch either of the Ace Ventura movies. So there you have it, in terms of hair Madeline most closely resembles an 80's Synth/Pop icon and a Jim Carrey character.
Oh yes, and Bonus points to whoever can figure out where the title phrase comes from. Hmm, there are more bonus points in this post than there probably should be in any one post...my apologies.
