fraggle en pleno crisis
maybe ive just been sleeping too much, perhaps the student strike lasted too long...whatever it is i have been way too bored for way too long...found myself wakeful and in the grip of absurd nervous sensations at 3am attacking my hair with nail scissors..everyone else has just plain crisis, i go for existential/hair crisis...
the result was such that, while i certainly continued cutting after having accomplished the abolishment of those blond tips which were becoming ratty and discolored going too far.. i did not go quite so far as to require me to shave my head which is usually where i end up having little sense of moderation...
however i have gone down that road several times and have promised myself to never again go through the obnoxiousness that is literally a year of bad hair when growing out and simultaneously dreading very short hair..
so i messaged ash and the aussie saying have cut hair maybe too much need consult. while the aussie said shave it, hell ill do it for ya ash was right there saying put down scissors dont touch it till i see...
in any case it ended up not so terrible, the final result is at least one thing i wanted which is a change, something different and a bit of levelling, not where its all the same length rather where its all equally random in being not the same length...i had somehow managed to rip apart one side and not the other last semester during finals leaving the two sides of my head very different...so now i have a dread bob, in fact if you want you can even call me dreadbob....
lil jen says shes never seen one before, short dread having folks being the in the process of dreading and generally lacking the new look i have of i cut my hair this way and then most of the established dread folks just dont cut they stuff and now after a slight panic of if i fucked this up im starting all over i think i know why...
but then again im stoked that its changed and i like the new look and the lightness of it and the fact that i can wash my hair as often as i like cause it no longer takes forever to dry...

thats correct. as a matter of fact now that i have the braided madness it will be a while before photographic evidence can be obtained. the point is that its cute but a lil too short. so it will still be cute and slightly less short when i am prepared to show the world.
