我的發(fā)型我做主

Which Hairstyle do You Prefer？

Cowlick 奶牛舔

Meaning： A cowlick—sometimes called a “hair whorl”—is a small clump of hair that either stands straight up or lies in the opposite direction of the way a person wants to comb his or her hair.

你是否曾經(jīng)和頭發(fā)斗爭過？你洗了頭，梳理整齊想要保持一個(gè)完美發(fā)型。當(dāng)你以為你已經(jīng)把所有頭發(fā)都整理好的時(shí)候，嘭！有一小撮不聽話的頭發(fā)豎了起來，仿佛在喊著：“快看我?。　边@一小撮頭發(fā)有個(gè)萌萌噠的名字，叫作奶牛舔。奶牛舔，有時(shí)也叫頭發(fā)旋，是一小撮立起來或者朝平時(shí)所梳的發(fā)型反方向突出的頭發(fā)。如果你在養(yǎng)牛場待過，你應(yīng)該注意到奶牛都喜歡舔她們的幼崽。舔的時(shí)候，她們的舌頭會在幼崽的毛發(fā)上留下一個(gè)漩渦樣的形狀。那個(gè)形狀跟人類頭發(fā)上被稱為“奶牛舔”的形狀一樣。

Don’t worry. You’re not alone. Almost everyone has at least one cowlick.

別擔(dān)心，又不是只有你這樣，差不多每個(gè)人都至少有過一次“奶牛舔”的經(jīng)歷。

當(dāng)中國年輕的移民二代興起一股洗剪吹之風(fēng)時(shí)，西方的叛逆青少年中也在流行emo flap（情緒搖滾頭）。情緒搖滾頭是一種反映理發(fā)者對世界的焦慮和仇恨的發(fā)型。這種發(fā)型劉海垂在眼前，遮住眼睛，并且剪成一小塊披薩的形狀。一般會剪這種發(fā)型的人都是有不滿情緒的小孩?；だ锞S斯曾經(jīng)剪過這種發(fā)型。

—Did you see that dude’s emo flap？

Energy-saving Haircut 節(jié)能發(fā)型

Meaning： An energy-saving haircut is a mainly short haircut that would reduce power consumption regarding hair driers or water.

各式各樣、千奇百怪的發(fā)型真是亂了小編的眼，長的、短的、大波浪、齊劉海、寸頭、殺馬特、莫西干、飛機(jī)頭……啥??？還有一種energy-saving haircut（節(jié)能發(fā)型）？！節(jié)能發(fā)型是一個(gè)可以減少吹風(fēng)機(jī)和水的能源消耗的短發(fā)。自從福島核電站遭到破壞以來，日本政府一直呼吁各公司和家庭大幅減少能源消耗。日本前田建筑工業(yè)株式會社要求其2700名員工都剪成相同的發(fā)型。男員工要將腦后及兩側(cè)的頭發(fā)剪短，頭頂?shù)念^發(fā)可以稍微留長一點(diǎn)；女員工都要把頭發(fā)做成可愛的“波波頭”，但可以把劉海斜向一邊。

The energy-saving haircut is easier for making short hair neat again after staff have been wearing hard hats all day on sweltering construction sites.

施工現(xiàn)場的員工都得戴著悶熱的安全帽，而節(jié)能發(fā)型有利于他們及時(shí)整理好發(fā)型。

頭發(fā)稀少的男士上了年紀(jì)以后，經(jīng)常會把僅有的那幾縷頭發(fā)橫著梳開，蓋住光滑的頭頂。這樣的發(fā)型在英文里有沒有對應(yīng)的說法呢？因形狀類似條形碼，日本學(xué)生用條形碼發(fā)型來形容男士將頭頂僅有的幾縷頭發(fā)梳開蓋住頭頂?shù)陌l(fā)型。

If she thinks her father， who wears shorts and shades and takes pictures of TFBOYS for a living， is uncool， how would she feel if he sported a bar-code hairstyle and pushed papers at the local ward office？

如果她覺得她爸爸穿著短褲、戴著墨鏡，靠追拍TFBOYS的照片謀生一點(diǎn)都不酷，那如果她爸爸梳著條形碼發(fā)型，整天坐在辦公室處理各種文件，她會怎么想？
