Actually, this is less of a problem outside of Utah and Idaho.
 

Sketchbook: Scoop cut

This one just seemed a little too silly, especially when the barber is holding an ice cream scoop. The sketchbook is where this one remains.
 

Overdue

I got a haircut yesterday for the first time since the end of February. This is exactly what it felt like!

Shave and a...

I've been watching our local missionaries as they do their Facebook feeds. Each time they come on, their hair looks a little bit longer. It won't be long, I'm afraid, that some of them will try some self-trimming.

Something to aspire to

In my mission, the Powers That Be warned us not to ask for a shave at the barbershop. We could never figure out why — until one day, one of the elders asked for a shave.

It was a great experience, he said. They wrapped his face with hot towels, lathered him up, and carefully shaved him with an old fashioned razor blade. His face was smoooooth.

Until about two days later, when his entire face broke out into a rash, with acne popping up all over. His young face was too tender, and was super irritated by the closeness of the shave.

It was a little disappointing that the deep, dark mystery surrounding the forbidden shave was for no other purpose than to protect our little baby faces!
