thanks ya'll. as for the mohawk, ryan? it's a cut I've considered. I'd have to make sure I'm in the right place and at a job that allows that level of artistic self-expression. (hint, hint). as for the sensuality of the barber chair. it's the one place I don't mind being submissive. he says tilt the head, I do so gladly. something about relinquishing control so that you look better. LOL. I also felt that way about having my locs groomed though... and the shirt off? You ain't seen nothing yet. summer approaches, and I'm gone get SWOLE!!!
true very true...though i think im fortunate that im in an academy that supports that kind of expression..wouldn't say the rest of the school is like that. even went to a job fair at conservative, repressed, and collared up Columbia and got a lot of positive comments about it. :)
will i keep it permanently? No...this was something I needed to do to signify a "rite of passage" or a "change" ifyou will..so much upheaval on my end for the past several months...and i needed to show growth or in my case a letting go of 'cultural mores' (i.e. hair must be either in a short fro or a caesar in order to be taken seriously,e tc.)
Clearly I can wear it and i love it. :) This would definitely be a periodic, summer type hair cut...ill most definitely grow it out cause i dolike fros, etc.
but it looks good on you...swole? HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM :)

Nice cut, T! (And I agree with you about "being in a barber's chair" although I haven't seen one in years, lol)
