MY HAIRCUT UPDATE - HNT

My last haircut was five months ago in September. The one before that was ten months ago, last April. That was the haircut when that bastard scalped me. I knew a month ago that it was way past time for a haircut, but I just kept putting it off. Yesterday I'd finally had enough of the hair getting in my eyes, that I decided today was the day I'd finally get my haircut.

HERE'S THE BEFORE SHOT














It took some doing, but I worked up the courage to go see Kirian. First I "shit, showered and shaved" as they say in the military, and then got dressed in my finest regalia.

I put on my best-est sneakers and my sexiest jeans. Lori know the ones.

















I also put one one of my favorite tee shirts. I love this one. It took me many years to be proud of my service in Vietnam, but now I flaunt it every chance I get.










Once dressed, I took that long ass two mile drive to the barber shop to see Kirian for that much dreaded haircut. To my surprise, the place was packed. There's never more than one or two people waiting, but this time there were five people ahead of me, but no Kirian. There was just the lady that cut my hair the last time. I asked the lady when Kirian would be in. She told me he was off on Wednesdays, but would be in tomorrow at 11:00 AM.

Since she had done an acceptable job the last time she cut my locks, I decided to sit down and wait my turn. Also, I figured that since I did get all gussied up and made that long ass drive all the way to the barber shop, I'd just wait.

AND HERE'S THE AFTER
















What do you mean it looks like I didn't get my haircut?

Can't fool you, can I?

I didn't!

Let me explain.

Being in the barber shop started to get to me very soon after I sat down. The longer I sat there waiting, the more regretful I became.

I'd been there almost an entire minute when the tension finally got to me and I couldn't take being there any longer and decided I had to leave.

I left ran out the back door and went to my car.

Any bets on when I finally work up the courage to get my haircut.

    I could cut it for you while you sleep and then in the morning pretend I don't know what happened. Does that work?

    Aw, man! All that suspense and you didn't get it cut - don't leave us hanging (although the second picture your hair does look better, almost like it was styled or something, if not trimmed just a touch -- maybe that was just all the hopefulness built into the suspense)

    Happy HNT!

    Lori, don't even think about it, because I don't think you'd look good with a crew cut. :-)

    You are not the only one who has walked out of a hair salon! I once walked into a fancy hair place in Santa Monica to get my hair cut. I was a "walk in", but this was a very expensive place....
    THey were such snobs, and I was a little hippie chick (with plenty of money in my pocket I might add) and they literally ignored me. I sat and sat and sat and noone came and got me...I just don't think they knew what to do with someone like me.....
    After about 10 minutes of sitting there..I walked out and never went back again....
    I get my hair cut once a year now....and I even hate that!
    HHNT TOny you have the best hair!

    I think Britney has already cornered the market for short hair on chicks this week - leave Lori's alone :)

    That's a great t-shirt, btw!

    But the shaved head thing is now all the rage....just look at Brittney! YUCK!

    You're good to follow your instincts...Nothing worse than a botched hair cut.

    BTW...you SHOULD be VERY proud to wear that shirt. You earned it....

    You know even though you did not get it cut the second picture does look better. I think it is just a little more in place. I have walked out before. I had my heart set on the one person and he was not there so ... bubie.

    Love the set Tony and your hair looks fine but you know you will need to break down sooner or later. You don't want to start looking like ZZ Top do you?
