An afternoon with Non Society

Share photos on twitter with Twitpic

With mild trepedation, Tad started telling me a little story yesterday morning about his friend Mark. Mark was supposed to help his friend Meghan out for a segment she was doing for her Non Society blog about girlfriends who hate their boyfriends’ hair and wish they would take care of it. Mark was supposed to go in for a bitch-fest about how they all thought his hair was out of control and then get a makeover. Unfortunately for Meghan, Mark’s head is currently buzzed pretty short. (his submission photo does display a pretty atrocious coif, but obviously that’s no longer the case)

So, she asked if Mark knew anyone who both needed a haircut, and who would subject himself to potential mockery on short notice. Mark’s girlfriend suggested … Tad?

Which brings us back to my part in all this: my job, should I choose to take it, would be to play the girlfriend. This was in NO WAY a stretch for me since, well, I very recently vacated that position. (I guess you could say on facebook that it’s “complicated”)

TURNS OUT: the girls in question are the Non Society blogger hotties, Meghan Asha, Julia Allison, and Mary Rambin. (I knew having a TV would come in handy at some point. Why did I sell mine!!?) Apparently they’re kind of a big deal. Despite being a big deal, they were all very very nice, just as hot in person, and you guys aren’t seeing the HALF of it in their outtakes. (the shit that came out of their mouths! seriously … and I don’t mean swearing. Julia must have a very interesting love life.)

ALSO TURNS OUT: The segment they were shooting was an ad of sorts for Axe and a promotion for their campaign to help men who are hair style challenged. Tad was the perfect candidate. The episode should be up on Thursday.

(this cuts off Ty’s face, but if you click through you’ll see an amazing rocker stlye going on.)

We had a lot of fun, and Tad got a great haircut. Uh, I probably shouldn’t say this, but I think I styled it better once we got home. Ty gave Tad a great haircut, but since he came in with such ridiculously greasy hair, Ty was pretty shy with the product and just kind of fluffed it up or “separated it” as Mary said. (looked fluffy to me) Plus I love mohawks/fauxhawks so I went to town with the “spike goo” product. It looked much more Tad to both of us. I’ll try to get an “after” after picture for you too.
