I am in mourning. In advance.

wildernessguru is going to get a hair cut.

Moan.


As tboy knows, he has long dark blond hair to his waist. 27 inches. It's as straight as a poker and baby fine, rock star hair. It floats as he walks naked across the room. Spreads across both pillows, worthy of Glamour, Vogue and Mademoiselle. Pours down his back when he perches in front of the TV.

I'm going to miss touching it, silky smooth. I'm going to miss it curtaining over me, framing gentle blue eyes. I'm going to miss watching it turn to metallic liquid gold as the sun hits it.

But it has to be done. His hair is just too long and takes too long to dry.

*Mourns.*

Does he have to cut all of it? Maybe he could go to shoulder length or mid-back.

*wails*

Get pictures before he cuts it.

Get him to keep the offcuts, give them to you - if the thought of your playing with it doesn't put him off! Take photos!

It sounds a dreadul waste, but what can you do, when RL gets in the way like that? It's cold where you live, isn't it. And the rest of the basic maintenance must be a chore too.

I'm sorry for your mourning. Although you should encourage him to donate it to Locks of Love if he's cutting off a lot of it. They make wigs for children with cancer. I just cut 10 inches off my hair and I donated it. It makes you feel better about losing it. You can go here to find participation salons : http://www.locksoflove.org/donate.html

Just a suggestion :)

((((Hugs)))))

I am weeping for you.

Gah- too long to dry! No- that is no excuse! Have him braid it and be done with it, or....

Oh, that's just...

I have no words.

I can't even imagine what that would be like. How short does he plan on making it? I can understand why you'll miss it (it sounds so sensual the way you talk about it above), how does he feel about it?

Oh, how I feel for you. My husband had hair just like that -- Lucius Malfoy hair -- long (not to his waist but far past his shoulders) and blond and very straight -- and he cut it all off last year. I still miss it so much. We realized he had gotten to the age where it was starting to make him look older, and he just decided to go all the way and cut it all. It was very shocking and took awhile to adjust. I admit it probably does made him look better in the face (made him look younger) but still... I don't mention it much because he misses it too. I told him in about 10 more years he can grow it back. Then he will look like a cool hippie professor instead of an aging rock star. =)

Btw -- sorry to comment twice in your journal in one day when you don't know me from Adam. Should have friended you a long time ago just because you have a thangka on your webpage with your HP slash!! OMG - I flipped when I saw that. (So maybe I'm not a freak?) And well, yes, your writing too, but that's beside the point. :) But was looking through your journal today and couldn't resist jumping in on the topics.

totally strange - I just woke up from a dream where you made a comment in your lj that lead me to believe you live near me (darn migraine)

oh man! that reminds me of this stupid Maury episode where all these men had hair that was at least 40" long. there was even this tall guy with red hair (it was gorgeous) that was 47"..it was incredible.. and his poor wife, they made her do the first cut...he looked better with it on..lucius malfoy hair?? *drools*..
i mourn with you..yes, take pictures.. *sigh*

That's sad. It'll take you a while to get used to it.

I used to have hair past my waist, and it was hard to cut it off. I did it in stages, a foot at a time, just for fun.

I've never met him, but it sounds gorgeous. *mourns with you*
