Vanity, thy name is vanity...

[vulgarweed]

...OK, maybe going without setting foot in a hair-cutting/styling type place of any sort since the Clinton administration is a kind of perverse anti-vanity. But it's so easy to keep putting it off...well, I did get a haircut today. Now it's upper-back instead of nearly-to-the-ass, and it's layered a little and has body and stuff. Wow. Most importantly, the dead ends are gone.

I always tip nearly 100% on my cheap-ass Supercuts jobs, because my hair is a pain in the ass to work with. Not only was it pioneer/pentecostal long, it's baby-pubes fine. It "cobwebs," which means it sticks to itself and tangles instantly. It's very snarly. It's slippery. The poor lady trying to wrangle with it actually cut herself on a strand of it. It also breaks easily. Also, according to her, I can't have bangs because my forehead's too small. That's fine. She knows what she's doing, I don't.

Yay, big improvement! I just want combing it to hurt less and require less lube.

I used to have long hair, too, and had the same problem with split ends. (Here's a tip: Try henna every two weeks or so. Thickens the hair shaft, making it more manageable. And if you don't want to color your hair, there are hennas that don't color it.)
