[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone explain to me what a Call the manager hairstyle looks like?[/quote]

Yes, happy to explain!  A "call the manager" haircut is another term for a "Karen haircut," which became popular along with the term Karen generally during the 2020 BLM movement.  The "Karen" concept was created by the BLM crowd and the political left to capitalize on stereotypes of annoying, entitled, demanding middle aged white Moms for political gain, like the term "welfare queen" and the "Willie Horton" ads were created in the past by the political right to capitalize on racial stereotypes.  The first "Karens" were white women who over-reacted to fear of black men and called the police (most famously the Central Park Karen) and then the "Karen" concept spread further to include white women who are generally bossy (but not necessarily racist) in their everyday life, and "call the manager" right away if they are not getting what they want in a restaurant or some public place. One of the problems with the word Karen is that it is misogynistic, and a bit of a slur toward women, so even though the term was originally well-intentioned in the eyes of the political left, it actually cuts against their agenda in other ways, which is one reason the term is dying off.  The "Karen" or "call the manager" haircut itself is a short, layered cut on blond, middle aged women.  If you google the term Karen haircut you will see what it looks like.  Some of the first Karens so go viral in restaurants happened to have this haircut, so it became part of the image, but I don't believe there is any real correlation between the haircut itself and the behavior that forms the stereotype.  As a white middle aged man, personally I think cut is sexy, if the women is attractive to start with.  But honestly, the haircut carries enough social and political baggage, that I would discourage my own wife from getting one.  (unlike the PP, my wife and I have no difficulty giving each other honest feedback on hair, dress, etc.).  Hope that helps![/quote]
