hairy
Been 9 months since I have allowed anyone to take a razor to my head. My hair continues to grow, not sure i like it, but I am 75% into my 1 year without a haircut goal and I am going to finish my year come what may. My hair is finally past the point where it was eye length and strands of hair poked me in the eyes when hanging in front of my face. Now I can almost get it in my mouth so i can chew on it like a nervous school girl. The good news is since my hair has a good deal of body/curl it doesn't hang as long as it could.
What am i gonna do come the end of March? I dunno. My wish was always to go to NYC and get my hair cut by Hairstylist Nick Arrojo. He does the harido's for people on TLC's What Not To Wear and I have been really impressed with what he does to the guys on the show. Without a doubt he has made them all look much better.
So I had originally decided to book a haircut with him for my birthday in October. I called Arrojo Studios in July and he was already booked for October. So I gave up on the idea. Oh yeah, and one more thing, an appointment with him would have cost $200(now up to $300 plus any extras like hair color). I know, anything more than $20 for a haircut is crazy, but it was a wild dream. Thought it would be a great reward for loosing weight.
Well so be it. Not like I am gonna book a $300 hairdo anymore, don't get me wrong I would still love a haircut by Nick, or anyone of his caliber, but that is not gonna happen. So who will in entrust my hair too? I have no idea. Perhaps if I wait another two years I will have saved enough 'local' haircut money to afford Nick, sadly by the time I am sure his prices will go up.

Funny that you posted this entry today. I just returned from the mall where I got my hair cut, colored and highlighted. It had been way too long for me...but definitely not a year. I like to watch "What Not to Wear" and also "How Do I Look", too.
