Although I have cut the hair of all our children throughout their lives, Jeanine has never trusted me with that task. Today that changed due to the stay-at-home advisory in place for all Massachusetts residents. Initially, she requested I cut off 2″. Then she updated the request to specify shoulder length. To an engineer, shoulder length implies hair even with the tops of the shoulders which for Jeanine was more like a 7″ trim. I decided to split the difference at about 4″. I have since learned that a woman who specifies shoulder length actually means that her hair cover her shoulders when dry. Let’s just say that I did not get a tip nor can I expect another visit from this particular customer. Advice to all followers of this blog. There is no upside to cutting the hair of your significant other.
