With the weather p*ssing it down here all day I decided to shave my head again for the first time in over half a year. Despite the rain today the really hot and humid weather is fairly imminent and given the amount of sweat that people generate in the Japanese summer I thought it best to not have any hair getting in my way and getting on my nerves.

Theres no short cut to becoming a barber but after about 30 minutes I was finally transformed. In fact it took so long to do that I thought I was going to be late for an appointment and it was a bit of a close shave but i managed to get out by a whisker! There is even the thought by some that men who cut their own hair can be quite barbarous!! At first I hated my new haircut but now its growing on me!! Can’t think of any more puns so I’ll give up now.
