Artwork On The Back Of Peoples Heads

James Stanton

The more we live, more brief appear Our life's succeeding stages; A day to childhood seems a year, And years like passing ages.

The gladsome current of our youth, Ere passion yet disorders, Steals lingering like a river smooth Along its grassy borders.

But as the careworn cheek grows wan, And sorrow's shafts fly thicker, Ye stars, that measure life to man, Why seem your courses quicker?

When joys have lost their bloom and breath, And life itself is vapid, Why, as we reach the Falls of Death Feel we its tide more rapid?

It may be strange—yet who would change Time's course to slower speeding, When one by one our friends have gone, And left our bosoms bleeding?

Heaven gives our years of fading strength Indemnifying fleetness; And those of youth, a seeming length, Proportion'd to their sweetness.

Let’s Talk About Cricket

Cricket has been a prevalent sport in the subcontinent for a long time. It is something that the locals relate with to a great extent. Be it bowling, or batting, or fielding for a match. Interestingly, Cricket was introduced in this region from the British when they acted as colonizers. The locals picked up the sport and adopted it as if it were their own sport, thereby developing a strong conviction to it. Experts agree that youngsters living in the Weald, a region of thick forests and clear

What are Sports to Society?

We all know what sports are by definition. We have all heard of different games like cricket, basketball, football, hockey, and many more. Other people enjoy watching different sports and some people can be enthusiastic enough to never miss a game. Regardless of what sport you choose or what level of enthusiasm you show towards the game, it can be agreed that sports hold a specific meaning to society. The definition of a sport goes far beyond knowing the rules of the game. There is a greater con

Military Culture

You might have heard that different cultures exist across different ethnicities, but if you have seen some of the most classical military-based movies like “A few good men”, or otherwise have an interest in military life, then you will know that there is a completely different culture in the Military and although civilians might not be able to understand that culture, it is well practiced in the military.

While it’s always nice and encouraged to release your artistic side wherever possible, we weren’t quite aware of how far one could really take this concept. But apparently, nowadays, the sky really is the limit, and if you can dream it, then you can really make just about anything happen. A young hairstylist from the city of Hanoi, Vietnam has been creating some seriously intricate and detailed artworks on the backs of his client’s heads. The thirty year old stylish, Truong Xuan Tuan, has been working in the hair business for an impressive decade already, and has been trying out a variety of techniques and unique designs for the past five years or so.

Tuan, who started out by making portraits of well-known Vietnamese characters from TV series, made headlines for the first time back in 2018 after his work on the head of Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese soccer star went viral all over social media. And while this of course, has led to many people constantly coming into his hair salon and wanting to receive portraits of their friends, family or favorite celebrities on the back of their heads – Tuan only agrees to create portraits that he’s already practiced and is confident enough to do properly.

While this can surely be disappointing for some, coming in with ideas that are likely to be rejected, we admire his desire to offer only quality work, especially when it comes to people’s hair, something that isn’t your average piece of artwork, as you can all surely understand, although at the same time, when it comes to a man’s hair, you can always just shave everything off, so it really wouldn’t be the end of the world in all honesty. Nonetheless, Tuan makes sure to have nothing short of an absolutely impressive portfolio of work to show for himself on the back of people’s heads.
