all's fair...
in response to a friend's post about why she loved chris... i'm doing my own... entitled:
Top 10 Reasons Why I Fucking Hate Dom Howard but Instinctually Find Him Endearing Because of His Array of Cranial Decor:
10) The Afro
Dom constantly challenges our set societal norms and stigmas about race, racism and representation of race in celebrity. Well done.
9) The Sombrero
Again, Dom creates a gentle juxtaposition between the struggles of immigrants in America; both those of Mexican and English origins.
8) The Mini-Sombrero
Like Madonna, Dom knows the power of reinvention.
7) The Beanie
Not only does this design insulate the wearer from the cold weather outside, it also presents an affected state of emotive reasoning.
6) The Fedora
Only men of the highest esteem can pull of the swank charm of a fedora. Dom's bold attempt is both notable and foolish.
5) The Patterned hair
For Dom, creativity is not only limited to the world of percussion; imagine in the intricacy involved in creating a black and blue gameboard on your head.
The Red look was, however, bland and tasteless.
4) The Pixie Cut
Channeling the androgny/vitality of Peter Pan, Dom reinvents the idea of a Pixie Cut, focusing on the curly tufts in front of his ears.
This is not to be confused with the hit or miss Hardman phase:
3) The Baby Hair
Call it a mid-mid-life-crisis, call it thinning hair, call it a yearning for children of his own; call it what you want, but recognize the quiet power in Dom's simple, yet soft, baby fine bangs.
2) The Black Hair
Perhaps the sexiest of the Dom Dos, his formidable black hair is sinister, mature, and somewhat elegant (and also distracts one's gaze from his rather bulbous eyes).
Again, this mustn't be mistaken for the horrible Bleach and Lesbian problems, either:
Before revealing #1, I'd also like to point out that it was Dom's delightful thievery of one of Slip Knot's mask that made me first fall for his flighty ways. As I don't have a Hullabaloo screencap of that joyous event, in its absence, this will have to suffice:
So ladies and gentlemen... I give you the number one reason Why I Fucking Hate Dom Howard but Instinctually Find Him Endearing Because of His Array of Cranial Decor:
1) The Cowboy Hat
A personal proponent for all things cowboy hat-ish, I respect Dom's foray into the world of faux-Western-wear, especially with this unabashedly kitschy version. It's understated, yet powerful.
(Oh...and it also reminds me of this one...)
