Keeping in trim
Mrs H cuts my hair. She has done so since fairly soon after she met me. My younger brother gracefully retired from so doing to make way for her. Neither had any training in hairdressing. Trial and error, continuously.
You see, I’m a cheapskate. When you have curly hair you can get away with any old Tom, Dick or Harriet cutting chunks off. All you need to do is rearrange the curly bits and hey presto, you’re done!
We’ve saved thousands, but we’re both getting older. However, the job’s got progressively easier, and that’s nothing to do with experiential learning!

When my hair loss became apparent I just starting shaving off all the ones that were too stubborn to let go. I look like a cue ball now....but I'm aerodynamic!

My younger son did likewise Christopher and suddenly became cool. (It must be cool because Prince William has just copied suit!) As for me, mine has clung on to the sides, which is OK when it's fairly short, but accentuates the imbalance when it starts getting adventurous. That's when the free haircut is requested. (I really should update my logo, but don't intend to!)
