Stephen's Hair Cut

         About a month after arriving here, Stephen decided to venture out and get a hair cut.  Other than the “stylist” leaving some hairs longer than the others, it went well for the most part.  Unfortunately afterwards, Stephen started calculating the cost per hair cut ratio against getting a set of clippers.  The cost for clippers is 12,000 mil and a cost for a hair cut is 7,000 mil (about $14).  I bet you all can imagine the light bulb that went off in his head when he realized he could just buy a set of clippers for the cost of less than two haircuts.   Him making this realization was no surprise to me because I am used to the frugality that encompasses my husband, but I had no idea just how frugal he can get.  He decided to bring this “buying a set of clippers” idea up with a friend of ours, George.  He pointed out that if they split the cost of clippers then they would not only make up the cost in two haircuts, but one haircut each!  Oh joy!  So needless to say, the clippers were bought…..and 6,000 mil later this is what we have….

 Let the buzzing begin...

I wanted a preview of what I have to look forward to when he starts balding.  This was not the finale, but too good of a pic to pass up!

And just since we are on the topic of hair, it has officially been two months and one day since I have blow-dried, straightened, or curled my hair.  Today was the day though, I could not take it any longer! So I broke down and bought the following....
The straightener is no Chi, but it does the trick!
