This morning I spent forty minutes watching “Asian Mullet” tutorials on YouTube.

for Maison Martin MargielaI have had it with my shitty hair. Over the last couple of months it has been good for nothing outside of short and occasionally painful French braids. Of course, it’s not suited to either the braids or the aforementioned mullet (which, as far as I can tell, works best with nice hair). But if these modern times have taught me anything, it’s that I should not let actual, provable, corporeal limitations dissuade me from making dubious and impulsive decisions.
So I hacked at my hair for an hour and now I have some sort of shag thing happening. It’s not awesome, but at least it’s other. You know what they say – a change is as good as a rest.
And a new mess is better than an old one.
Probably.
