My brush with a shit haircut

Not only has my temperature been hovering around 39 degrees for the past week, but I also had the misfortune of getting a shit haircut last Saturday.  So if you saw a very pale guy in Beijing with tufts of curly hair sprouting everywhere, then that was probably me.  I probably shouldn’t blame my hairdresser too much.  He was a new guy from Dongbei, with a questionable dress sense.  He was wearing a sleeveless white shirt that was made out of practically see-through material.  He did a decent job of cutting my hair, but I thought that it was still a bit long on top, so I asked for him to cut it a bit shorter.  That was my fatal mistake – a mistake that can probably happen in any hairdresser in any country.  Within seconds, my hair went from ‘a little bit too long’ to ‘way too short’ and I was condemned to enduring comments about my ‘new haircut’.  I reckon the best haircut is one that no one notices – it means that you haven’t let it grow too long and you haven’t cut it too short.  I have had quite a few good haircuts over the last couple of years, but this one was definitely in noticeable territory.
