“You can’t see that hair dye!”

Wilfred Genee himself is relatively open about the use of hair dye, but for Twan Huys it is a bit more difficult to admit his vanity. He is often teased about allegedly dying his hair black. “The older Twan Huys gets, the more that dyed hair looks out of place,” Rob Goossens sneered a while ago.

Dyed hair

Star columnist Arthur van Amerongen once wrote that in his opinion ‘only old Southern European men are allowed to dye their hair’. “Twan Huys dyes his hair just as flashily and with all those spotlights on his hairstyle he really has to be careful of the Rudy Giuliani drip effect,” he wrote in the Volkskrant.

Story boss Guido den Aantrekker was also very mean about it once. After Twan’s interview with the blocking frieze Jenny Douwes, he wrote: “Twan Huys, I just saw your repeat online. You are a bad person with ditto dyed hair.”

New coupe

Men who dye their hair black are invariably teased about it, because it obviously says something about their vanity. Wilfred also has to deal with it regularly, for example when he teased his colleague Sam Hagens on Friday about the fuss about his new haircut. “Do you have a stylist or something?” added Johan Derksen.

Sam: “I just went to a hairdresser.”

Hélène Hendriks: “Or an image expert?”

Johan: “You look like a pop idol.”

“Painted again?”

Then Sam hits back at Wilfred. “Did you dye your hair again?”

Wilfred: “No, two weeks ago.”

Hélène: “How often do you actually do that?”

Wilfred: “Once every five or six weeks or so, I think.”

Hélène: “Yes, that is necessary.”

Tease punch

Johan thinks Wilfred is doing fine. “You don’t see it on you.”

Wilfred then teases Twan. Sarcastically: “No, huh? Hahahaha. I don’t think you see it with Twan Huys either. Then you absolutely cannot see it.”

Hélène also thinks that Twan dyes his hair: “Same color, I think, right?”
