Alright, alright, let’s talk about this fella, Cary Grant, and his hair. You know, the pictures, the movies… that fancy hair of his. Always so neat and tidy, like he just stepped outta church or somethin’. They call it a “classic side swept style,” whatever that means. Sound fancy, don’t it?
What’s the big deal about Cary Grant anyway?
Well, from what I hear, he was a big shot movie star, back in the day. Real name was Archibald somethin’-or-other, but everybody knew him as Cary Grant. He was English, they say. Always dressed sharp, too. Clothes were always pressed and clean, not a wrinkle in sight. Guess that’s how them movie folks rolled, always lookin’ their best. I seen some of his pictures, he sure did look like a gentleman.
So, how’d he get that hair lookin’ so good?
- First off, he kept it short, not all long and shaggy like some of them youngsters today.
- Then, he’d comb it over to the side, real neat-like. No stray hairs stickin’ out all over the place.
- And I heard tell they used some kinda special brush, somethin’ called a “military brush” or a “boar’s hair brush.” Sounds fancy, huh? Probably just a good brush, is all.
- They say he used somethin’ to keep it in place, too. Maybe some kinda hair grease or somethin’. Back in my day, we used lard sometimes, but I bet he had somethin’ fancier than that.
You know, it ain’t rocket science. It’s just about keepin’ it clean and combed. That’s what my Ma always told me, “keep your hair clean and combed, girl.” And that Cary Grant, he sure did listen to his Ma, I reckon.
Can any fella get hair like that?
Well, I guess so. If you got hair on your head, you can comb it, right? You just gotta keep it trimmed up, not too long. And you gotta comb it regular, maybe a couple times a day. And get yourself one of them fancy brushes, if you wanna be real particular. But honestly, any fella can look presentable if he just puts in a little effort. It ain’t about the brush, it’s about the effort, you hear? Like my old Pappy used to say, “A little elbow grease goes a long way”.
Why do folks still care about this Cary Grant hair?
Beats me. Maybe ’cause it looks good. Simple as that. It’s not all crazy and wild. It’s just… nice. And I guess some folks like that. They like things that are classic, things that don’t go outta style. And that Cary Grant hair, well, it seems to be one of those things. Like a good pair of shoes or a well-made suit, it just always looks good. And maybe fellas today, they wanna look good too. Nothin’ wrong with that.
So, what did I learn about this Cary Grant and his hair?
Well, he was a fancy movie fella with neat hair. He kept it short, combed it over, and used a good brush, maybe some hair grease too. And folks still like that look today, ’cause it’s classic and simple. And any fella can get a similar look if he just puts in a little effort. That’s about it, I reckon. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go make some supper. All this talk about fancy hair has made me hungry!
Last words on the matter.
You don’t need fancy stuff to look good. Just keep yourself clean and presentable and that’s enough for most folks. Don’t go frettin’ over your hair too much. There’s more important things in life, like family and good food. But if you wanna look like a movie star, well, I guess you can try that Cary Grant hairstyle. Just remember to comb it good!
