I Wish I'd Remembered.....

[gness]

...that my one and only foray into the world of the hairdresser had been a disaster....

I chopped off with rusty shears and a pudding bowl ....and at her request .... the beautiful, sit upon, blonde ringlets of my best friend........we were about seven.

This morning I decided I was making a mistake letting my hair grow....the back's fine.....didn't like the front and sides.....how hard could it be to give them a bit of lift?.....

The right side looked good......til I did the left....and then had to shorten the right to match.....it didn't....I am now nearing my earlobes.....

I think having one leg longer than the other and poor eyesight isn't helping......so....one last attempt with the pudding bowl....or maybe I'll just phone the hairdresser and beg an emergency appointment....... :-(

Just go the full shave and tell all and sundry you are having chemotherapy.

Ps: Buy a nice scarf.

Oops! Youll be ok as long as you dont use the strimmer or loppers. If all else fails you can always walk with one leg in the gutter!
Ha!

"You can leave your hat on"

Maybe I should have saved that for Cupids thread ;-)

[gness]

Oooo...couldn't do that, Oz....could have an animal print I suppose....☺

GM...I'd put the strimmer on slow, attach it to the tree and walk around it slowly....if I didn't have a sloping garden....that and the leg....No....☺

if you go for the full shave one of these might do the trick

Surely you're not inviting yourself to be trampled by a herd of marauding animubles.

Love the multi coloured Mohican, Ael......that's a possibility......x

Depends who's herding them, Oz..... ;-)

How about a Crocodile Dundee look a like Gness?

Think I know one, I'll send 'im over.

You posting reminds me of an incident when I was in my twenties. I had bought what was known as a 'Barber Trim Comb' and used it quite regularly. It had a razor blade set in the centre of the comb which allowed for altering the depth of cut. Great for tidying-up my frizzy hair.

Well one evening I gave a 'run' over my hair with a good cutting depth. Using just my right hand, I kept dragging the comb to the same spot on the back of my head. Result, when I held up my shaving mirror to view the back in the bathroom mirror, it looked as if I had been attacked with a Tomahawk.......A bare strip from the crown of my pate down to the nape of my neck.

The following morning I went to the Barber who listened to my story and said to tidy-up the mess he would have to cut my hair very short all over. He did and it was the start of my Crew-Cut period for well over a month.

I lost the comb and could never find it. It's my guess that my wife binned it.

You should see mine - and it was cut by a hairdresser
My one consolation is it will grow

[Mamyalynne]

Took the scissors to mine the other night - looks OK when it's wet lol.

[gness]

Mine's not looking good wet or dry, Mamya.....but as Ric says....it'll grow....eventually....

Hans...you have BA because I think I'm going to end up looking like you...x

[HansUrbancka]

Thanks gness for the BA, although I hope you don't end up looking like I did. One good friend reckoned I looked like a Tibetan Monk. Nowadays I certainly have a Monkish appearance.......It's the Tonsure that does it.
