Shorn at Last

Well I managed to reach the milestone of 18 months without a haircut, but my enthusiasm for the whole experiment was really wearing out, so it was time for a reset. Here’s a last shot of the shaggy me:

And cut to the new low-maintenance me:

So it’s back to the corporate geek look. A look which is probably more befitting of my current station in life, not to mention my advancing years.

I can’t even describe how free I’ve felt for the past few days without all of that hair. So nice. And especially convenient now that I’m commuting by bike again.

You look younger, (a high tech. comp. geek now) as apposed to the shaggy (man against the system rebel look). I like the contrast between both pictures, (how you are sporting the glasses with the new hair cut). Riding a bike with a new hair cut really does feel nice, doesn’t it. When you go from long to short hair it makes you feel like your somehow sharper, more clear headed, able to think and react quicker. It is amazing the diffrence in how a hair cut can make you feel.

I second what Anita said. Clint, if I didn’t like you AS A BROTHER so much, I would wolf-whistle at you and call you a hottie. *chuckles* Seriously, though, you look great with either ‘do.

Now, about that mullet….

If I only had a photo of our life group it would be photoshop mullets for everyone! I think they would look especially charming on the ladies.

Gene had one of those sneaky mullets when I met him. He looked perfectly normal from the front but when I went to the rest room and came back I saw his inter-Billy Ray Cyrus hanging down his back!!! Have to say it must have been love cuz I kept dating him and after knowing each other for only 21 days he cut 17 years worth of hair off for me!!! Well he did have a couple of trims in between, or else it would have been more Crystal Gail than Billy Ray :)
