Aaron Cruden – what’s up with the hair?

Talented fly half Aaron Cruden made his Super 14 debut this year with the Hurricanes. Cruden was part of the 2009 Under 20 World Championship winning New Zeland team and has taken the next step into professional rugby.

It seems he has brought the bulk of his old hairdo with him for comfort.

Cruden’s home union, Manawatu, has a solid hair pedigree. There is even a hairdresser in the team.

In this company, he doesn’t exactly stick out but he has let the back of his hair grow while keeping the front short – and this has come to the attention of his video blogger team mate, Corey Jane.

All Black Jane asks the questions that we would have had we gotten to Aaron Cruden first – what’s with the hairdo?

See the 1:40 mark in this video.

We did see a similar hairdo last year at Pukekohe.
