I like your theory, too, Silom. The bar boys with the spikey hair are the ones who can afford to sit in the hair styling places along Boy-Soi every night and pay the THB 50 to have their hair done. They, therefore, consider themselves to be "superstars" in the bar boy game. And, I have found that, the higher they believe themselves to be in the bar-boy-strata, the less likely it will be that the customer will get any "bang for the buck". Khun Wee (who has been discussed here a lot) is a prime example of this. He believes that he is god's gift, and does not have to perform. Unfortunate, really. So, if you want quality rather than quantity, I'd suggest that you go with a flat-headed guy, rather than a spike-top.
