Just before I left New York, I took the somewhat drastic measure of shearing off almost the entirety of my formerly flowing locks. This was largely for practical reasons, and so far Im pretty glad I did it.
First of all, I finally know the answer to one of life”s enduring mysteries: what shape is my head? As it turns out, mine is a pretty good almost-bald shape.
Secondly, this no hair thing is amazingly low-maintenance. Last night I took a bath in a sink, and actually felt almost clean afterwards. Plus, it dries in about 10 seconds. Sleeping is far more comfortable because there’s no hair in the way (I left my pillow at home.) And last but certainly not least, I can finally put my glasses on top of my head with no fear of having them become entangled.
Also, it feels great. It’s soft and furry. I can’t stop touching it. And so far people can still tell I’m a girl.
