Wednesday 14 September 1966 George and Pattie Harrison travel to IndiaIt was during this time that George made an immediate change to his look. He took self photos to document it. The couple returned to England on 22 October 1966. John Lennon officially cut his hair and began wearing glasses on 6 September 1966. However Lennon is photographed on 18 September 1966 being picked up by Neil Aspinall, and inexplicably still has his classic August 1966 hairstyle. George would be clean shaven by the time they began recording Strawberry Fields Forever, and all three grew new mustaches, which "McCartney" already had as evidenced by the Mal Evans Kenya video. I think it is highly interesting that George was making such a concerted effort to document his change in physical appearance and style on his own.

I see your point. However, if there were more photos of him at home I would lend it more weight. As it is, it seems like a guy on vacation growing his first moustache because the band was going to be out of the spotlight long enough. While that may sound silly, think of it like this; George was in the band as the absolute youngest. He grew up under the glare of flash bulbs and television studio lights. His face was placed on periodicals around the globe. And, all the while, he had to conform the the "lovable mop-top" look. Once the band decided to take off an extended period of time, he was able to try growing his moustache for real. (Pretty much all you guys should know what I mean...that first moustache is pretty much all peach fuzz and isn't something that really looks good) So, George goes on an extended holiday in India. And he grows a moustache. But, because he's travelling and doing the whole tourist bit--Beatle or not, he was still just a guy and his partner off on holiday--while visiting India, he takes some pictures. Like I said, show me pictures of George at home "documenting" his change in appearance and I will believe there's more to these pictures. Now where's my camera? I'm going on holiday.

I'd like to see the photo of John being picked up by Neil with "old haircut"?
