Word on the street is that it sucks to live in North Korea nowadays. The country’s crazed dictator, Kim-Jong Un, has virtually brainwashed all of North Korea’s citizens and committed atrocities only comparable to those of Hitler. But earlier yesterday morning, life just got that much worse. Kim-Jung Un announced that he was stripping citizens of yet another fundamental right: the right to personal hairstyling.
According to “Time Magazine,” all the men now have to sport the same exact hairstyle as Kim-Jung Un. The women, on the other hand, are “allowed to choose” from a list of 18 state-approved hairdos.
This got me thinking, if I happened to be an evil tyrant, hell-bent on corrupting and controlling every aspect of life in an entire country, what hairstyles would I allow/not allow the population to wear? Here are my winners and losers:
Acceptable:
1. Side-Swept Bangs
2. Big Pony
3. The Bump/Teased
4. Big, Loose Curls
5. Waves
6. Stick Straight
7. The Low, Loose Bun
8. The Effortless Top Knot
Banned:
1. The Pixie
2. The Bob
3. The Choppy “Blunt” Cut
4. Half Shaved, Half Full
5. Boho Dreadlocks/Cornrows
6. Pig Tails
7. The Faux Pompadour
8. The Kate Gosselin
So since I only have eight that are approved, I guess you have more freedom in North Korea in this department?
