Now that we've starting counting down the days, I've been thinking of things I want to do at home that I can't do here.
One of the first things I want to do when we return to Canada is get a "normal" haircut.
I never posted about my Korean hairdressers experience, but after living here for about 8 months, I finally gathered up enough courage to trust someone whom I couldn't communicate with to cut my hair. I was hoping to avoid it, but it was June, very hot, and my hair was badly in need of a trim. Something had to be done.
My co-worker recommended a place. It was very nice. I expected it to be relatively expensive, given the atmosphere. But, it turned out to be only 9 bucks.
I went prepared. I showed the girl a picture of myself of how I wanted my hair to look. Unfortunately, the picture was only a front view...
I came home with a mullet.
It wasn't really all that bad, but it was way too Korean for me. Wispy is the style here. But to me, it just looks coarse and damaged. Jordan cut off a big chunk in the back, so at least I don't have a mullet anymore.
But now I really don't like my hair, and I am very anxious to get a real haircut from someone I can actually talk to!

yeah, I've done the language barrier haircut thing before too... it definitely requires some courage!
By the time you get back, the mullet will be all the rage here too, I can feel it.
