I have let my hair down!

I have let my hair down!

Literally and figuratively. Its was a difficult decision in light of the fact that my religion, Sikhism, frowns upon doing that. Hairs of the head should be covered in public places. But there are times when you want to be a free bird, soaring with the wind blowing in your hairs. Most people took to my change of appearance with clichéd and stock phrases. I have now been branded Taliban soldier, cousin of Osama, handsome hunk, cool and crazy all at the same time. I told my mother and she was not very happy with my decision, which is fine.
For me this was just one of the ways to break the shackles of conventions and norms and find my inner creativity.
