- I sometimes pull my hair into a short stubby one myself, but unlike you
- I can't get my side hair to stay in place. The first passing breeze
- whips up every strand that isn't firmly held down and leaves me looking
- like Marlin Brando in "Mutiny on the Bounty." Hours later, when I happen
- to catch a glimpse of my reflection in a window, I experience a painful
- stab of frustration which passes soon enough but leaves me with a vague
- desire for death.
-
- Experience has taught me that there exists no solution. "Why not just
- grow your hair longer!" you sneer. But I tell you it just won't grow any
- longer. The last haircut I had was back in 1990 (involuntary mowhawk).
- Since that day the finest hair stylists with the most authentic U.K.
- accents have lovingly laboured over my head with every ounce of skill
- they possess and spared not a drop of their expensive organic potions.
- And I have watched in despair as, one by one, each of these proud
- professionals has hung his exquisitely coiffured head in defeat,
- muttering weak and suddenly accent-less excuses. PAW!!!
-
- this doesn't give me hope because this is my problem as well. The
- front hair is down to my chin but is about an inch shy of proplery
- joining the pony tail. feh! do I have to get some kind of *cut*
- where its short in front and long in back?
