The other night while Wellz was talking on the phone I became very impatient with my hair. Getting my hair cut by professionals always make me nervous. Not because I think they will mess up but I really hate feeling trapped for an hour or two with a complete stranger with forced conversation. I don't know any good friends that cut hair so I always choose someone new. Plus I'm not really a hair person. I have really thin and fine hair, like a baby. It never looks pretty and it isn't one of my good physical qualities.
So the other night I pulled out the clippers and shaved my head. Having short hair doesn't bother me but I do get a lot of stares. I'm not insecure about people thinking I am a boy (AM I A BOY?) because I have huge pregnant boobs and a matching belly.
Usually I cut my hair because of depression so when Wellz walked in and saw my hair he replied "Heat, what's wrong? Do we need to talk?"
I'm fine. Although this morning I found seven gray hair and now I'm feeling pretty old.
ps Never become pregnant or shave your head if you don't like to be touched by complete strangers.

double whammy. you should challenge people to pat your head and rub your belly at the same time.
I want to see a picture. Or even better I want to see you in person. I think I'm coming to SG this weekend. Also- I have always thought you have cute hair styles.
Good Heather...
Now you & anavey will be twins!
You will never look like a boy & by the way. I posted about liking gray hair but have changed my mind since I have so many of them. They are everywhere. I'm graying early:(
I think that a woman with a shaved head is very confident, special and interesting. I think you need to post a picture for all of us to say our opinion on your hair!
I didn't explain but the (AM I A BOY!?) section of my post was dedicated to Katie. She's probably the only one who will get it.
I probably won't post a picture. You can all guess what I look like. And anonymous, why would I show my face if you won't.
yes, i got it heather. funny.
I totally hear you on the thing about hating getting your hair done in the salon. It is one of my all-time most hated things for exactly the reasons you metioned--it takes FOREVER (my average is seriously 4 or 5 hours!!!) and why do those ladies feel the need to make conversation? I don't care about the chit-chat, just let me sit there quietly and then go home. I'm glad I'm not the only one.
I also utterly despise clothes shopping. I can't understand why these two activities (getting your hair done and shopping) are supposed to be so awesome.
Ok. I agree on the hair salon about having to make stupid small talk but not the clothes shopping! Man, I could shop all day long.
I actually love getting my hair done if I don't have to say anything. It's relaxing & I don't want to be bothered. I love when they turn on the blow dryer so we can't talk!
i figure i could pay $50 for a bad haircut or $10 for a bad haircut. i just go long periods at a time without cutting it. and its ugly. but if you know of anyone that is good in my area let me know.
