It was time for a dramatic makeover. I’ve had long hair for about seven years; the look had run its course, and the hair was starting to thin out a bit too much anyways. The biggest fear: reaching 35 with some awful haircut, like the Japanese peasant look (long hair, but totally bald on the front of the scalp).
There’s no easy transition from long hair, though. It had spent too much time in one position to act natural, and I had no idea how a normal haircut would look. So, I took the dramatic approach – break out the clippers and give it a #2 all around.
I like the new look much better. Now to experiment a bit…
