Hairdresser in residence

There are a lot of things that you don't know about me. That may seem hard to believe given how much I seem to blab about myself, but it's true. For instance, I bet you didn't know that I am a non-professional barber. I say "non-professional" because I never went to barber school, but I have been giving Ron his haircuts for about 2 years now.

OK, so there's not that much hair to deal with there, but it does have to be cut evenly. I am very grateful for my electric clippers with the attachments that keep me from making a mess of his remaining locks. I admit that in the beginning I was really nervous about cutting his hair, but he is the one that convinced me that I could do it.

Against the warnings and advice of my friend Denise (a REAL board-certified hairstylist), I have been trimming my own hair for a long time - just a little here and there in between my real haircuts. Denise always knows when I have been hacking away at my own hair and it doesn't make her happy.The only reason I have gotten away with it is because my curly hair hides any uneven cuts I may have made.

So, even though I think my husband looks great after I give him a haircut, remember - it's not professionally done. If you see him out and about and happen to notice a stray hair, please let me know so that I can fix it. He doesn't have the curly hair that will hide my mistakes.

He's so cute! And a good sport, too!
