Junior Bachchan agrees to inaugurate beauty salon for free because he loved the hairstyle a stylist employed by the salon gave him

Celebrities are normally known to charge humongous amounts for launching events but Abhishek Bachchan prefers to stand out from the crowd. He will be opening a beauty salon for free because he loved the hairstyle a stylist employed by the salon gave him!

Abhishek personifies trendy styles right from the time when he sported long hair and made the 'hair band' his individual style statement to his rough cut in Guru

Says a source close to Abhishek, "Abhishek has always been extremely particular about his hair and supervises the styling himself.

In fact he has never been to a salon as the salon comes to his house and that's always been the case since Abhishek's childhood.

While Hakim styled Amitabh Bachchan's hair at home, his son Aalim would do it for Abhishek. Abhishek personifies trendy styles right from the time when he sported long hair and made the 'hair band' his individual style statement to his rough cut in Guru.

This time Abhishek and Game director Abhinay Deo decided to experiment with a different hairstyle for the actor."

Abhishek for Game styled his hair at Adhuna Akhtar's parlour B Blunt, where chief stylist Shefali worked on AB's curly locks. "Though Abhishek does not like experiment with his hair, but he did so for Game and now his look has become very popular.

The women especially, including his wife Aishwarya Rai, have loved Abhishek's new look and complimented him on it. Abhishek's Game co-stars, Kangana and Sara have personally called him to compliment him on his look in Game."

When Audhuna invited Abhishek for the launch of her new salon in the suburbs he immediately agreed to do the honors but for free.

"He said it was as a gesture of thanks and appreciation for Adhuna and Shefali who will be managing the new parlor. That's Abhishek motivated only by emotion and passion but not calculation or manipulation!"

Abhishek says, "I'm normally not too experimental with my hairdo but all credit to Shefali who managed to convince me. I love the look she's given me for Game."
