Win Some U Lose Some

 


Bob has cut my hair for 40 years, I cut the back of his, he cut his own. 
Things changed, and now I cut mine, he does the back, and I saw this trimmer with all the blades a few months ago.
for several weeks I put it in the cart and added to the list and before clicking buy now, I would delete it because I figured it was a waste of money and I could not use it..
I must have removed it 3 or 4 times. Last week, it popped up and said on sale and I had rewards $$ of 9.96, and with sale and rewards I paid only 15.00 for it.
Woo Hoo.
It came and when I finally figured out how to charge, turn it on, put the comb things on and off, it was two days.
Several tries later with no success, I took the comb off and decided to use it to trim the back of my hair, it worked great on the right side, switching to the left side
SCREAM  
I dropped it on the floor and it broke off the thingy that held the blades on. no way to repair, it sat on the table while I got up the nerve to throw it away and decide if I wanted to keep the bag of stuff.
I opened a drawer and saw a bright yellow roll of
DUCK TAPE

Yay! i can't use the attachements but it work well on the back of our neck line, and that is why I bought it. If I disapear, you will know, the tape came loose and the blades cut my fingers off.
What If On the Loose~~ ha ha

Rememeber the Murder of my Hair by Salon Hairdresser. It was on August 12.
Finally on Oct. 8, 2023 the hair had grown 12 weeks and now Mama is happy.

 JUST HOW I LIKE IT! Perfect in every way!


Except for one NOT SO SMALL THING.
I have a 1/34 inch cut on my left ear.
Can you see the blood stop Band-Aid? 
But the hair looks good. All I do is wash, let it dry by itself and Fluff with hands and gone.

Selfie Sunday

 




The above photos were not planned. I added my 6 weeks growing of my  hair.
At the bottom of the collage, I wanted a picture of my hair in the sunshine after I ran my fingers through it and ruffle it up. While attempting to get The Shot, I was taking a selfie shot of the underside of a flower and got the photo above. One thing led to another and well, you know who I am.. MADsnapper!

Travesty Hair cut

 

left to right, Hubby Cut,     July 19 Salon Cut,    and 1/4-inch growth 4 weeks later.

If you are pondering the reason for different color hair in before and after, the before was taken in bright sunshine, the after in the bathroom mirror. 

There are errors in the graphic, due to failure to proofread, thereby causing the correcting of the travesty . Corrections are in the typed letter below. 😉

Dear Heather, at Super Cuts, 

I thought of you when Word of the Day appeared in my inbox on August 12th, 2023. My hair has grown about 1/4 inch in the 4 weeks since you cut my hair. Make that scalped me. My calculations say it will take at least 12 weeks to get anywhere close to what it was.

My hair is a travesty of a cut, shocking, upsetting and a badly inferior haircut. 

Please be advised, you will never see me again!

                             Despise you, MADsnapper

Hair Saga continued


came and so did my hair cut

All of you, my friends said, don't worry,, it will grow back


I could not wait!


I dug through my drawer and found the curling iron that I put away 2 years ago when I went to wash to wash and wear hair . Fluff and go. 
With a little help from my friends, the curling iron and hair spray, which was also put away 2 years ago,
I can now go out of the house without fretting over people staring at my hair cut. 

It took 10 minutes of ironing and spraying and now unless someone touches my hair and finds out it is as hard as a rock, they will never know.
PS the sunshine is always a friend when taking photos.
 It helps point out the wrinkles, chins and other thing besides the hair. and don't forget to Smile because they see the smile and don't notice the other things. It also helps to take eyes away from my head to have a big DOG on the leash for them to admire.
TAKING SAT/SUNDAY OFF
Going for a RIDE with Cousin Bonnie on the new highway and bridge and to see all the new growth that is paving our paradise

WHAAAA??!!

 


You may have seen this photo back in June. I went for my first Salon cut and was so happy. 
The first time in 39 years that Bob did not cut my hair.
The above was my hair after she cut it.
Fast Forward Five Weeks later...

The photo above is the way Bob cuts my hair and never once messed it up in 29 years. the one behind the camera is what the girl that cut it perfect the first time did on the second cut. 

When I sent this photo to Jackie in a text moaning about my hair being ruined,
her return text was simply.
HOW FAST DOES YOUR HAIR GROW?
Did you PAY HER? Tip her?
While shopping in Walmart yesterday, I felt like everyone in the store was staring at my crazy cut. I can't stand to look in the bathroom mirror while I wash my hands.
If Bob dies before I do, I will buy sheers and buzz my head like they do in the army.

I Did It!!!!

 


This story started at 4:30 AM, Monday morning.
Bob yelled down the hallway 
"WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY PILLS?"
I went running in the kitchen and he handed me his 7 day pill box that
has 1 fish oil, 1 All In One Vitamin in it.
WHAT IS THAT? I yelled.
The pill that has the black stuff is a vitamin the slug looking thing is the fish oil that is normally gold.
I zipped locked it in a baggie, and at 9 am drove to Publix and
showed it to our pharmacist. He said What is that? I said We hoped you would know.
He said He has never seen anything like it before.
I bought new vitamins in Publix, and a new pill container and walked out the door.
Seeing the Sign 3 doors down, that said Super Cut Salon, I thought, I am going to find out how much a haircut costs.
This is a BIG DEAL... no one has cut my hair since 1985 but my husband Bob.
Tired of me crying because they made me look like Cesar Agustus, he became my in-house Salon Super Cutter.


I walked in the door and seeing only one lady at the desk, said, what do you charge for just a haircut?
She said $19.00. I had intended to get the price, because Bob is having a hard time cutting my hair, with his hands a little shaky, arms up in the air, knees a little rocky, I decided to
Try it Out!
I showed her the purple hair do I wanted, oh wait! that is a dream, not true.
I did it,
Heather Cut my hair, I thanked her over and over that Ceasar was not in the mirror when she was done.
I asked her 
Make it so I can wash it, let it air dry, fluff it with my fingers.
Blend it, leave it the same but shorter, and leave the bangs not straight but feathered!
and HERE IT IS
Because of the wrinkles and chins, I added my Avatar so you
Can Focus On the Hair Cut, not the FACE.
Bob was a tad unhappy when I came home, but he will get over it.
Since I had not paid for a haircut for 40 years, I had no idea what to tip her.
I gave her 5 dollars, for the 19.00 cut. Was that right
PS I hate being ME, I fret over everything, what she thought, was it enough, did she think I was nuts, 
DID I TALK TO MUCH?
PS again, If I were young and if I were beautiful, I would Love to have that magenta/purple hair.
