I have been so tempted to take the scissors to my hair for the last few days as I tried to find time for a haircut…
today I managed to fit the time in…
felt so much lighter after the cut…
the hairdresser took quite a bit off, so I shouldn’t have that urge for ages, lol…
on my way home I spotted this happy camper, even if they were stuck in the grass;-)…

I had a very busy day on Thursday…
so I didn’t have time to get a trim because my hair had apparently gone wild overnight…
instead I dug out my sharp scissors and cut my own hair…
think it came out okay, lol… although, as always, I can’t really see the back;-)…

it always amazes me how one day my hair is perfectly fine and the next day way too long… and I can’t possibly wait another moment to fix it🤪…
finally got around to using the beautifully sharp scissors… well, they were sharpened in September…
they are amazing;-)… what a difference…
after a bit of trimming, I think my hair came out pretty nice…
what do you think…

last time we used my hair scissors, my friend advised they had lost their ability to cut, lol…
I’ve been looking for new ones and asking around about getting them sharpened, but with no success…
we’ve started going to the Wolseley Farmers Market and I realized a few days ago that there was a person who sharpened knives… I texted to see if he dealt with scissors and he responded that he did…
I took them with me when we went and he did a great job… he also let me know they were very good ones and would be excellent when he finished sharpening them;-)…
it was interesting to watch his process and see all the steps required to make them good as new…
thanks Bret;-)…

this morning I dug out the hair scissors, a sheet, comb and spray bottle…
then I dragged the table and hibiscus into a corner of the dining room to make some floor space available…
my friend came over and we had a a hot drink before she trimmed up my locks, lol…
the back is always the spot that needs the most help and she did a great job…
I took a before and after of the front…
happy to have it tidied up…
looks like my very old hair scissors finally bit the dust… they have had a good life… first with my hairdresser friend and then with me for twenty or so years… I am going to have to search for another pair of used ones… wish me luck…
