Hair flip is key to Justin Bieber bob
Tweens flock to Toronto salons to get singing sensation's shaggy hairdo
i sincerely hope they mean that tween girls are flocking to the hairdresser to ruin their heads with this hair-don't because if boys are hoping to get some attention with his style, they had better only be interested in other boys.
this kid is annoying to the nth degree and deserves the same attention (if not less) than expired beef jerky. like most kid/tween obsessions, i simply do not get it and i sincerely hope that i am able to raise my future children well enough that they do not get brainwashed into liking this type of shiznat.
