New Look for Halloween

The deal of the century was to be found at New Look studios...at least for a haircut.

As I haven't had my hair cut in about 3 months, I decided a new look was in order for Halloween. And I knew just the place where I needed to go. New Look!

Ok, so New Look is only the local barber shop down the street from our apartment, but their prices are on the cheaper side and since I don't believe in paying extra for a simple service, New Look was my kind of place. For 8 euros however, the service was excellent.

Apart from a small misunderstanding on how short I wanted my hair to be cut, the barber did an excellent job with the scissors before finishing off the job with a straight razor. This was the first time someone had ever used a straight razor on me and I must admit it was a unnerving to have a blade pressed against the back of your neck. In the end however, everything went well and I now have a my New Look for the next couple of months. Mindy was sad to see the curls in my hair disappear, but after a quick tear she recovered nicely by complementing my new style as she now refers to me as her "little cue ball".


A little shorter then expected, but the good thing about hair is that it does grow back.

Oh my gosh - where is your hair. Are you sure you didn't give him instructions to shave your head? Certainly can see your face now. Love Mom :) :)
