Brandon has been trying to get me to cut his hair for a long time, but I've been hesitant because the only hair I've ever cut with a razor was the hair around our horses' hooves. I finally convinced him to go to the girl who cuts my hair and he has actually been pretty happy with the way she cut his hair, so I thought I was in the clear....until Brandon found a set of clippers on sale at Target. Suddenly, I became the new stylist at the hillbilly salon in our garage!!
Thankfully, my friend Christy occasionally cuts her husband's hair so she came over tonight to give me a few pointers.
Pretty nice digs we have at our salon, huh? After she made the initial "cuts", she handed over the clippers to me.

I couldn't tell if Brandon was nervous or not, but he sure did complain more about my skills than he did about Christy's skills. What's up with that?
After we finished with the #4 on the top (I've got to learn the proper terminology), we went down to a #2 to do the bottom and then it was time for blending. I gave the clippers back to Christy so she could show me how to do it because this is where I was afraid I would really mess up!
The lighting in my salon isn't so good, but I think we did a pretty good job despite that fact. I only made a little mistake on the blending part but Christy was able to fix it and we were able to make him look pretty darn good! Christy only threatened to scalp him once (and he was totally oblivious)!
Next time, I will probably have to cut his hair all by myself so take a good look because this may be the best hair cut he gets in a while!
