Cheepskate Tuesday: How Edward Scissorhands can save you money

With my hair short, I notice sooner how fast it grows. This means it looks shaggy and loses its style faster. Being a cheapskate, I thought I'd save the twenty bucks (which could then be spent at Starbucks) and cut it myself. Have you ever tried to snip the hair behind your head? It's not that easy. Initially I thought I'd just cut a bit off the bottom. Then I decided to trim off some of the "bulk". Heck, why not create a unique new style?!

Now I've got a sideways mullet. My hair is pretty short on the left and sweeps across my forehead and hangs longer on my right. It reminds me of a comb over. Actually, I think it looks kind of cool.

Moral of the story: Maybe late at night is not the best time to cut your own hair ;)
