Nathan's haircut

At the weekend, Nathan (the peace corp based in Kerewan) came over to the house asking if I would give him a haircut. Initially I was really excited; the idea of taking scissors and snipping away at his hair (Edward Scissor Hands-like) filled me with delight. 

I soon came back down to earth though and felt duty bound to tell Nathan that I had little to no experience in cutting hair and the only time I had attempted it (once at Uni) it was a disaster and became one of the contributing factors to the demise of a friendship.

However this was Nathan that I was talking to and he didn’t seem overly concerned about my slight lapse in confidence. So off I went to Nathan's house where the cutting commenced.

It took me a while at first to regain my spark (the evil friend at uni had deterred me from cutting hair ever again) and then I was off. Snip, snip, snip. It was so much fun, I really did feel like I knew what I was doing.

Once I had completed both Nathan and I were pleased with the cut! I did however spend the rest of the day looking at his hair when we were talking and once, mid-conversation I even gave it an extra snip!

What a huge success!! SO I have posted some pictures to show a BEFORE and AFTER cut so you can see my handy work. Incidentally Nathan's facial expression was a little, should we say 'vacant' on the first picture therefore adding to the contrast on the second!
