The Pandemic Haircut

Women of all walks of life around the globe have been cutting their own hair since the Covid-19 pandemic started. I was actually in the process of growing out my hair and had the beginnings of a nice bob going on. I can’t remember at what point my frustration won out but it happened pretty quickly when the husband’s clippers came out. Once the ZHHHHHH began I was committed.

I have probably shaved it about five times since then. The first few times took longer than you would think (mostly because of the bloody mess) but for the most part I am done in about fifteen minutes. I may have to do a few touch-ups a day or so later for wayward hairs.

From Instagram, July 2020.

I make less of a mess of my bathroom than the first few times and I think I have what I want dialed in. Does it look as good as if my stylist did it? No, of course not but it’s good enough that I am not cringing every time I pass a mirror. And it has been a blessing in this hot and sticky weather.

Styling-wise, after a shower it takes me less than five minutes to dry and style. I use a dab of Redken Velvet Gelatine 07 (get from Amazon.ca or Amazon.com) before I blow it out and a touch of American Crew pomade (get it from Amazon.ca or Amazon.com) (I’ve had this forever) when I’m done. And the best part? I wake up the next morning and my hair looks basically the same.

I have no shaver’s remorse — I still miss my stylist though. What have you done with your hair during the pandemic?

Stop Biting the Tail You’re Chasing

Tolerance
"No matter in what situations we find ourselves, when we don’t have so many opinions and preferences we naturally experience more peace of mind. We feel more agreeable, more comfortable, and more able to fit in with others. When we are more tolerant, not only do our minds’ stability and experience of meditation improve, but the conduct of our body, speech, and mind also improves because we stop being so reactive."
