We took the stool outside, and a pair of scissors, and I sat in the shade of a giant tree. I faced so that as K pulled out each of my curls and cut them loose, the wind would blow them off her hands and off my clothes. I have ash brown hair, some strands dark and some so light I can’t tell anymore if they’re blond or grey, and as the wind took them away, I noticed the tree’s bark had all the same colors.


How long had it gotten this time?

It was not long enough to pull back (by a long shot), but long enough to be completely crazy. Now it’s back to about 2 inches, which is short enough to be super easy for me, and long enough that it still curls for K. We’ve been having temps in the high 90′s all week, and it is so nice to have so little insulation on the top of my head.
