In a small salon in a town in northern India, a haircut is not just a trim or a crew cut but an opportunity to get some art embossed on the back of your head.
Two brothers in Dabwali town in Punjab are now famous in their small part of the world for giving haircuts shaped in images of the customer’s choice.
From images of turrets and towers to portrait of pop star Michael Jackson, the brothers, Rajwinder Singh and Gurwinder Singh, use a range of trimmers, scissors and pencils, among other tools, to get every minute detail of hairdos correct.
“In the beginning we used to give anyone we could get hold off free haircuts so that we could practise our skills on them. Some days we used to practise till 2.00 a.m, Rajwinder, the younger of the two brothers, told Reuters in an interview.
These days the brothers, aged 29 and 31, charge anywhere between $20-$30 for their special hairdos, and say they have plans to take their business outside of India as well. -ndtv.com
An Alberta baseball team hosted a Guinness World Record attempt involving an Australian shepherd jumping across the backs of 56 people.
The Edmonton Riverhawks, an amateur summer collegiate team in the West Coast League, hosted the record attempt for the most jumps between people by a dog in one minute during a June 14 game.
Chardonnay, a 4-year-old Australian shepherd belonging to dog trainer Jennifer Fraser, bounded across the backs of 56 fans arranged in a straight line in the outfield.
The record’s rules set a time limit of one minute, but Chardonnay managed to set the record in just 16 seconds.
Fraser said she trained Chardonnay to jump onto her back a few years ago, and her trick repertoire has since expanded.
“Jumping across backs is just one of her many skills,” Fraser said.
Firefighters and an animal control officer in San Francisco came to the rescue of a wild parrot that got its head stuck between panes of glass on a third-floor balcony.
San Francisco Animal Care & Control said on social media that Officer Mullen responded alongside the San Francisco Fire Department on Sunday when a parrot was spotted with its head stuck between two panes of glass on the balcony of an under-construction building.
Firefighters went to the roof of a building and lowered a ladder to the balcony, where they were able to slide the bird upward to free its head.
“They wrapped the bird in a towel and handed it off to Officer Mullen, who checked out the bird,” the post said. “Thankfully they were fine: their wings, legs and neck were all OK, so Officer Mullen released the bird.”
The parrot made its way to a nearby tree to rest on a branch. UPI.com
