My DS1 came round this morning to pick up some stuff to go to a festival this weekend.

Nice to seem him

BUT.

HE HAS CUT ALL HIS HAIR OFF!!!!

I dont care that he is 17 and doesnt even live at home.
I dont care that its his body and his head and his hair.
I dont care that he is still very handsome.

HE CUT HIS LOVELY DREADLOCKS OFF. He has had them for years. They took years of loving care (by me) to get looking so beautiful.

And now they are gone

His reason? So he can get more modelling work

He isnt a model by they way but expects to be snapped up any minute. He IS very good looking but its hardly a career plan.

Anyhow. I dont care. HE CUT HIS HAIR OFF.

Now flame me for being a controlling matriarch who cant cut the cord. Go on.

YANBU, if he really did look good in them. Dreads seem to be either <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=www.sweetslyrics.com/images/img_gal/8552_lenny-kravitz-468421l.jpg&imgrefurl=www.sweetslyrics.com/LENNY%2520KRAVITZ.html&usg=__ATEgq5_M3rwc6Z5q91m3Ezi8w9c=&h=522&w=381&sz=45&hl=en&start=0&sig2=ixDRFlnSk7H-_ccchyYOzQ&zoom=1&tbnid=-daG1ipLdHcgPM:&tbnh=106&tbnw=81&ei=5QsWTuWSOIjx0gH0trVf&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dlenny%2Bkravitz%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26rlz%3D1B3GGLL_en-GB___GB388%26biw%3D1024%26bih%3D402%26tbm%3Disch&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=710&vpy=40&dur=400&hovh=106&hovw=81&tx=107&ty=153&page=1&ndsp=14&ved=1t:429,r:5,s:0" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">amazing...or eurgh.

Oh God i wish I hadnt clicked on that second one. I have just scoffed a whole tub of haagen das. now I feel a bit queasy.

The first one now....mmmmmm.

Yep DS deffo in the first camp.

Bit twit that he is.

Can I just ask - are dreads not really really heavy? Am imagining having headaches a lot. I do like the way they look.

sorry should have marked warning sensitive bad form on my part

Also, I think it's rather inappropriate to be equating Lenny Kravitz and an esteemed MNers 17 year old son in my mind

... on account of the fact that LK is yummy, in case I wasn't clear

he's not my son jamie...

mmm Lenny,

mmmm

(1) You are without doubt an evil witch.

(2) Please can I introduce your son to my daughter? He sounds great.

Haha.

He is very striking and does get lots of sideways squints from older women. Its horrid.

What was even horrider - I went to a carboot sale with him and the two babies. We were browsing and it became quite clear that several people assumed we were a couple.

OMG OMG OMG. I felt weird for days and days.

bleugh bleugh

tinker you sure you want me for your DD's potential MIL? Could lead to some interesting AIBU threads in the future
