Hair Carving
.
Look what you can get for just $10! Simon already had the fauxhawk, so the side shaving and carving was $10. He justified the $10 because one of his roommates owed him $10. That's how kids with no money justify spending money - it felt like free money to him. It was not his money, but his roommate's. With keen financial skills like this, thus the kid has no money. In his defense, he's definitely growing up and learning some tough financial lessons this year. Just not in this case. ;-) He's 20. He'll get there.
But back to the fun stuff. It was done with a straight razor (whoa!) freehand. So each side is different. He loves it. As do I. Simon and I went out to dinner at The Olive Garden last week. This was pre-carving. He was dressed all in black (required at the high end sunglasses store he works at). I was noticing how many people stared at him as we walked through the restaurant. He doesn't seem to notice, but I'm sure he does. The boy loves attention. I love that he is who he wants to be and lets his freak flag fly. I love this kid with all my heart.
He wouldn't let me take a photo from the front. Guess he figured it would end up on the Internet. Hmmmm.

That style looks good on him!
That looks really great! I say that's a bargain for $10!
You know, on someone else, that might look tough but on Simon, because he's so cool, it just looks stylish. That boy's got style, that's for sure! (No money, but plenty of style)
In a few years he'll probably settle down to some boring "adult" hairstyle. Personally, I think it's cool when a kid experiments with interesting hairstyles and colors.
