Just a bit of colour can make such a difference.
The weather might be gnarly but how can I not smile with this discovery. It’s amazing how beauty can light up life. I’m smiling so much this morning.
“Dad can you cut my hair”
That’s the problem with single parenting. For every task, I can’t hand it over to someone more able than myself. So I’m a hairdresser today. Simultaneously I am the best hairdresser in the house and without doubt, I am the worst hairdresser in the house as well.
Twenty minutes later Hawklad’s hair is much shorter. A unique haircut. Kinda of different styles depending on which part of his hair you look at. I blame it on the hair clippers. The dog’s hair clippers. So as Hawklad surveyed the damage in the mirror.
“Go on Dad, tell me what your Dad used to say to you, I think it’s very relevant right now.“
After every home hair sheering Dad would say- there is only two days between a shocking hairstyle and an ok one. My Dad would then quickly add – a man on a passing horse wouldn’t be able to see if it’s a good or bad cut. It was easy for Dad, he was bald….
“Dad, as most people won’t be on horseback I’m going to wear a big hat for the next few days….”
A Dad trying to cope with the loss of his Partner and becoming a single parent. 
The best thing about a haircut is that it grows back. I’ve been there too. A few days and it ok.

Unless you’ve created an unintentional Mohawk, it’s going to grow out in a weeks time.

I live a little too far away. Or I’d sort Hawklads hair out for you.😂🤣😂😂😂 I do have some hair cutting skills. But it will grow out. 🙂
