Mr. Blandings Builds
His Dream House was on TCM today, and it made me think of this silly play
on the title: Mr. Balding Builds His
Dream Hair, which would be an ad for a hair restoration company (like
Bosley or Hair Club for Men). And in the ad, we’d see a balding man planning
all the different kinds of hairstyles he can try once he has a full head of
hair again. He does so by using his computer to overlay different hairstyles,
from crazy to conservative, and from Caesar to Mohawk, over a photographic portrait of himself. And after interchanging many different hairstyles on his picture, he decides on one that he wants, and
then we cut to him having that hairstyle after his procedure.
