Shave-and-a-haircut... 5 bits.....or, in this case, $7.

I hate getting my haircut. I think it stems from my Dad taking me to the barber college when I was a kid. Cheaper, you know. Plus I have semi-curly hair, so it's hard to cut. I've had one cut here that wasn't bad, but 6 weeks have passed and off I went for haircut #2. I went looking for the guy who did it before, but to my horror, he wasn't there! And as luck would have it, I was next. "Wash and hair cut," I said, having learned my lesson from last time. "This much off?" the woman asked, holding up about 1/2 inch of semi-curly locks. Yes, please. She then proceeded to engage in a conversation with the woman next to her. Must of been quite the hot topic 'cause she kinda forgot about that 1/2 inch that I wanted taken off. There was an occasional "nice hair" comment to me as she cut and cut and cut. So now it's former nice hair, as most of it is now on the floor of the salon. And I use that term loosely. Not only is it too short, the hair cut sucks. I haven't had a bad haircut in a awhile, and, surprisingly, I really don't care. Everyone has a short haircut here. None quite as bad as mine, though. The reason that I got the cut in the first place was, like an English sheepdog, my hair kept falling in my eyes. And, of course, she kept that part long. Jeez oh man. But fear not, I will be home in 30 days and will make a bee-line to Al, my hair guy, who will fix this mess that has cropped up upon my head. Hey what do you want do you want for 7 bucks? It's bad, but at least it's cheap. Moo reese will be so proud....
