For years and years I’ve dreamed of getting my hair clippered up with a number 1 all the way up in back and on the sides, with an inch or two left on top. That is a short cut for a woman! It’s been years coming. But, last week I did it! I figured out a way to be able to park within walking distance of the salon, so that I could take a few shots of whiskey for my haircut courage!
From where I parked I could see the salon and if there were any cars in the parking lot there. I sat in my car at 1 PM and took a shot. I knew that I’d need at least 3 or 4 to work up the courage to cut my hair to a number 1 back and sides, from the two inches I have. (had). Then I could see the client come out of the salon, head to her car, and I was ready to take another shot, which i did. But, then, I saw Andrea, my stylist leave the shop too! I wondered if maybe she was going to go get something for lunch. 15 minutes later she had not returned. I decided I’d take a 3rd shot of whiskey just in case she did. I was mindful of the time, and the number of drinks I was taking. I would not drive anywhere if my shots exceeded the hours I spent since my first shot. I’d go walking in town and shop or just browse to kill time until I was able to drive while not under the influence.
10 minutes later I saw Andrea return to her shop, unlock the door, and go back in. I was really getting up some courage after my 3 drinks! But I was still not ready. I decided I’d take a 4th, then message Andrea to see if she could even get me in! ten minutes after my 4th shot of whiskey I messaged her. She messaged back immediately! She said if I came in within the next 20 minutes she could fit me in!!!! I was excited now! I took my 5th and last shot, and began walking the 10 minutes to the salon. By now I was comfortably numb. I was finally going to be able to ask for my goal cut. A number 1 in back and sides all the way up, with an inch or 2 on top. She caped me before I even knew what happened, or the small talk we did when I entered the salon. The alcohol courage really had me under its control. It was going to happen and I was not even nervous! I was astounded at how I told her to cut it when she asked! She looked at me funny and said, ‘are you sure?” Yes, I said, I have haircut courage today! She said “ok” and before I knew it the clippers were running up the back of my head!
What was disappointing about the cut is that I was so drunk I didn’t have the faculties in me to realize what was happening. I was just numb to it.
Well, 20 minutes later the cut was done. I ran my fingers up the back of my head and got excited! My goal haircut had been achieved. After all these years it finally happened. I was aroused. I made some talk to Andrea about my cut, but don’t remember exactly what it was. The alcohol made me forget. I walked downtown for a couple hours or more, and when I felt it was ok to drive I made it back to my car.
Now, a week later, I still really love feeling my haircut! But, at the same time, I am let down by the fact that there was nothing left to achieve! I’d done it. I had no desire to buzz the top, I just didn’t want to, my goal cut had been achieved. Now what?
I could go back in a week and have it trimmed up again, but not much hair would be cut off. I was even a bit let down with myself that even if I let it grow for a couple months and went back for the cut, that i’d be let down because I’d already achieved my goal cut. I guess the only thing I can do now, is to let it grow a couple of months or more and go in complete sober and have it cut. That might excite me. But, I’m let down now that i’ve experienced the shortest cut I wanted to ever get. Is my fetish now limited? What to do? I need suggestions!
That was a fun story, Jenny. And you’re not nearly done!
Here are some ideas for you:
1) have your hairdresser shave a nice arch over your ears: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/441704675937054850/
2) get the sides faded: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/441704675960610840/
3) try a slick look: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/441704675962294372/
4) get the same cut, but in a barbershop. That will give you a thrill.
