So, I decided that it was time to get a cut. I usually go to a place in Cambridge and the guy gives great cuts&#8230; but he&#8217;s, well, a bit of a douche bag. Quite the douche bag, really. When I&#8217;m feeling confident and happy, I actually do enjoy his haircuts. He&#8217;s pretty funny, definitely what you would call a character. But, he has a fairly acerbic wit and he tends to make me feel somewhat uncomfortable.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been feeling pretty fragile lately, so I decided that I didn&#8217;t need that kind of awkwardness. So, I broke up with him. But, I totally pulled a dude and just stopped calling. I figured he&#8217;d get the message, eventually. And then I went out and find someone else. Someone younger, cuter and whose salon has free brownie bites in the waiting room.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d say that she does nice work:<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/hopers\/2548154721\/\" title=\"photo.jpg by hopers, on Flickr\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3138\/2548154721_d68f1f7275_m.jpg?resize=180%2C240\" width=\"180\" height=\"240\" alt=\"photo.jpg\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>I asked her for 1960&#8217;s era bombshell. With some volume, but not too pouffy. She pretty much nailed it. The price of the cut included a blowout, so I let her break out the hairdryer. I should have my hair blown out more often! I felt like a supermodel.<\/p>\n<p>Too bad I suck at blowing out my own hair.<\/p>\n<p>Today I am back to my natural curls, but it&#8217;s rainy and I ran out of my usual curl product. So, I will have to reserve judgement on how it looks in its natural form until the weather gets better and I can make a run to the store.<\/p>\n<p>I am certainly pleased so far.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My hair was getting shaggier than a poodle&#8217;s.
