I've worn my hair long for more than 1/2 my life now.

I've changed about my hair and yet my hair hasn't, but over many past months I've decided that its time.

This transformation fits with the concept of my album to do this now -- where I've been, where I'm at, and where I'm headed (no pun intended) -- so I've thought to get my head shaved while getting it all photo documented, later to be used as part of the artwork with in my CD.

I just scheduled time with a local Triber to do the work -- a fellow I think has the right personality for the work and the right look for the photos. In conjunction, I've scheduled this time with a friend (also a local Triber) to take these pictures. I'm also doing this as a Locks Of Love donation.

With actually having a time & date scheduled with these people, this has become much more real; I'm ready, but I'm also scared.



_Almost Cut My Hair_
by Crosby Stills Nash Young

Almost cut my hair
It happened just the other day
It's gettin kinda long
I coulda said it wasn't in my way
But I didn't and I wonder why
I feel like letting my freak flag fly
Cause I feel like I owe it to someone

Must be because I had the flu' for Christmas
And I'm not feeling up to par
It increases my paranoia
Like looking at my mirror and seeing a police car
But I'm not giving in an inch to fear
Cause I missed myself this year
I feel like I owe it to someone

When I finally get myself together
I'm going to get down in that sunny southern weather
And I find a place inside to laugh
Separate the wheat from the chaff
I feel like I owe it to someone
