So the day before I left for Costa Rica, I thought it'd be a good idea to get a haircut. What does one do when she has 3/4-inch long hair? Why, cut it herself, of course! I'd been trimming my hair periodically with a trimmer set since I initially shaved it in December, and have gotten pretty good at it. But this was the day before a life-changing event, and so I could not do something easily. That's just how it works ;)I had let my hair get fairly 'long' over the past few months - I could actually part the front portion - and so it took a few sittings with my poor little trimmer. It tries hard, but runs out of juice easily. So I had finally gotten my hair a uniform, 3/8 of an inch or so, took the guard off to even up the nape of my neck, and voila! Perfect!
I proceeded take care of other items on my to-do/packing list and in the interim, found a longish hair on the back of my head. Simple...all you do is run the trimmer over the area to take care of the rogue strand! But I forgot to put the guard back on, and thus, dear reader, I bring you the results in picture form to your left!
I tried to fix the bald blemish myself and make it blend in with the rest of my hair, but to no avail. It all had to come off. And so, that is the story of how I began my month in Costa Rica with a very scantily covered head!
