I am in a very precarious place here, folks.
I've not had my hair cut since, like, January. It's down past my shoulders now. This is the longest it's been in a few years. I now spend most of my time either being okay with it (not really liking it, but accepting it is the way it is) and debating about taking the scissors to it myself.
See, my usual go to hair person is my second mom, Mama Carla, and she's no longer cutting hair professionally. I could probably still call her up and ask her to cut it, but that could be awkward for various reasons that I won't get into. So, my cheap, reliable hair cutting source is pretty much out of the question right now.
Which means that if I want my hair cut, I'm going to have to find a new person and I don't look forward to doing that. The one time someone other than Mama Carla cut my hair (oddly enough it was the one who cut it all off), I did it on a whim for charity and lucked out with getting a great cut. I probably shouldn't leave it up to luck again because luck has a way of running out. I don't need to wait for a she-mullet to grow out, you know what I mean?
Furthermore, money is an issue. As in, I really don't have any to spend. Twenty bucks for a hair cut is almost too much at this point because that's twenty bucks that could be going to bills (we'll get into my need for a new day job in another post). So if I am going to go to a new place, then it's going to have to be a cheap place.
And we once again come back to the question of quality because there is some truth to the saying that you get what you pay for.
So, if anyone has any advice on finding a good hair stylist on the cheap, I'd really appreciate it.
Otherwise, my dad's got clippers in the bathroom drawer. I may just find out what I look like bald.
