Yeah, made it.

No shopping today.  Just haircuts and a meal.  I went with... well... a high and tight.  Long in the back.  The woman doing the cut, quite a winsome lass by the by, was friendly and talkative.  The ordeal was quite pleasant.  As she was finishing, she mentioned something.  She had an appointment, so had to go, but... she saw something and, hesitantly but finally, just came out with it.  Have you ever thought of braiding?  Well, yes, I have.  But I was... just a bit hesitant at that point myself.  There are braids and then their are braids.  Still, I came right back and asked her what she meant.  She did a quick little bit, but saw that she didn't have the time needed for that, so went to a smaller area and did that.  YES!  Yes, I have thought of that.  So she finished the area.  In the discussion, I asked how difficult such a thing would be to learn.  Oh, not too difficult.  I could show you, but I could see time was short.  How about teaching me?  I could come in a few times, two or three, an half hour?  A bit of questioning of how long or hard it was to learn, but she thought twice would do.  So... as I was cashing out, I set up an appointment for next week.

Ah, what was it, between my cut and what she saw and did?  Here.
Uhrm, well, minus the blood and armor.  I didn't see the possibility until she, pretty much, crafted it.  Nice!  I think even my friend was... well... he appreciated it.

Afterward, out to dinner.  I think, for some, my hair was considered... very good.  For others, not so much.  Not my problem either way.  Yes, I do want to learn.  I'll keep it trimmed as such more often and in better form.  I like it.  The sides aren't that shaven, but down to the nubs.  And the braid is further back, due to time constraints and it being last minute.  I might work on those.  It's good to be... noticed, as for potential for such a style.  I would never have believed, but... yeah... it works.

The public reaction almost surprised me.  Either loved or hated, but amazingly plainly.  There was no hiding reactions.  The old wolf strolls again, I suppose.  Dinner was great, the reactions even better.  I'm buzzing on it.
