A Hair Cut A Day....

I cut Dominic's hair on Wednesday. He was such a good boy for me. He sat there like a little trooper while I buzzed away with the clippers. And he is so adorable, but of course, I'm partial.

The same night I cut Dave's hair after the kids went to bed. Every time I cut his hair he mentions how he has a receding hairline. I always thought he was full of it and would argue with him about it. His hairline has always been set back a little, but it was always longer which hid that fact. I attribute the reason that I've been cutting his hair shorter lately to the fact that he's noticed his hairline is set back.

Weeeeeeell...I think he might be right. As I was cutting his hair on Wednesday I was thinking to myself, "Hmm..it is looking slightly thin here, and here, and here....oh. Hey Babe? I think you were right about your hair."

David: "I told you I was losing it, it's been thinning for a while."

I must have been in denial because I failed to notice even though I come within 6 inches of his scalp to cut his hair every 4-6 weeks.

I mention it to Deb, that I did notice it and she goes, "Yeah, I'm glad you cut it shorter because I could see through the longer hair to his scalp, it's not as noticeable now." Ha! That gave me a good laugh.

OK, how many people noticed that my husbands hair was thinning before I did?

So anyhow, I tell Dave what his Sis says and he rolls his eyes.

Then I joke, "Maybe we should invest in some Rogaine."

Being the frugal bunch that we are, his response: "Do you have any idea how much that stuff costs?!"

I was laughing and talking to a friend about it and she tells me that when she was looking for a mate, she made sure to look at all the older men in the prospective mans family to make sure that his elders had a full head of hair. LOL - that had me rolling. Dave would have miserably failed that test.

Fortunately, I married for love, not for hair, because eventually, he won't have any (smirk).
