I can’t believe I just did that- cut my own hair. What was I thinking?
Oh yeah, I know… I’ll blame it on the delirium caused by a high fever.
I haven’t cut my own hair since the Barbie Doll Disaster of ’68. Holy crap.
Sure, I missed my scheduled haircut and yeah, sure, my hair was a mess, but still…
Now my hair cutter person will yell at me. I’m in so much trouble.


I was 9 when I cut off all my eyebrows with round-ended safety scissors. I was sitting on the floor watching “Superman”-not the movie but the afternoon version-and I don’t remember doing it, but I did. Redheads have faint strawberry blonde eyebrows, so it wasn’t full, noticeable eyebrows I chopped off. Except that in the middle of my right eyebrow-maybe there was an exciting scene on TV?-I cut into the flesh above my eye. REALLY cut. Big cut.
Enough said. I don’t want to talk about it any more…
Oh Marilyn! I’m so glad you weren’t snipping your eyelashes! Ow!
The lovely thing about hair is it GROWS BACK!!! The last time mine was cut, the beautician (at my specific request) used clippers on the sides and back (yep, it’s really that short) and the top is about an inch long. Wash and wear hair is my thing. And it grows out really fast…
Well, Anny, mine better grow fast! I bet your hair looks great short!
Oh crap…the good thing is it does grow back. Just never as fast as we’d like.
This is why baseball caps were invented.
I cut my own hair for 20 years. I’m not saying it was a good thing, but there you are. I’d probably still be cutting it, but those sneaky gray hairs were becoming the majority. I do love my new hairdresser, and my hair looks so much better.
You’re in luck, short and edgy is trendy. Spike it upward or brush a front piece with copper hair gel. People will envy your softer version of the Femhawk.
I have a big cow lick in the front and I can’t even remember how many really bad self-inflicted bang trims I’ve done to myself.
Yeah, that’s what I’m doing, Kat - spiking it everywhere! Oh she’s gonna kill me. I really chopped into it!
When my hair was long I could trim it, Stephanie, but it’s super short so I can’t hide anything. I don’t have gray. When my red hair changes color it turns pure white, which is awful because it’s like… transparent. Like I’m an albino or something. Don’t like it one bit.
Nailed it, Penny.
Yes, Amber. Fortunately my hair grows fast but still not fast enough.
I’ll never be able to look at you the same way again Julia! (((O))^((.)))
Ray -
You and me both!
Just get better.
Hi Tim. Sick of me already? Stop by tomorrow.
Hey, I cut mine all the time, so I can do yours too if you want although you may end up looking like Persis Khambatta from the original Star Trek movie, is that a problem?
I cut my own hair once a week. Of course, I use clippers and cut it all down to 1/4 inch long which probably wouldn’t be a good look for you.
Aaron, sometimes I am tempted to shave my head. And wear a habit. Thus I wouldn’t have to decide what to wear and how short or long I want my hair. It’s very tempting.
Uh oh. That just never works out for me……
