A Handful of Hair

Recently, I literally took matter into my own hands when I decided to trim my hair.  Although I don’t do it as often now, I always find the experience to be quite liberating.  I remember cutting my own hair since the early 1990′s back in university and also had a good laugh trimming my friends’ hair back then too.  Over the past decade, I haven’t done this as often because I’ve been fortunate to get “sponsored” haircuts from professional hair stylists, which ain’t too bad either.  But once in a while, I just like to whip out the old trusty hairclipper from any D.I.Y. (Do It Yourself) Store so I can go ballistic on my mop…

I usually just go crazy with the electric hairclipper, but I felt especially “adventurous” this time so decided to stick with only the shears.  I was planning on videotaping the entire “hairy” experience but in the end decided to just take pictures instead because there weren’t any available bodies to “man” (or “woman”) the camera.  Here’s a collage of the shots from the session…

Now that my hair’s all done, it’s time to see whether Jonas needs another “Mini Hawk” or not.  The best part about the entire experience is that no matter how “unimpressive” of a job I’ve done, I know I did it all by myself…and any mistakes will “grow back” and be covered in no time!
