I cannot wait to get back to Chicago to have a "real" haircut again, even if it is from SuperCuts.<br /><br />P.S. I love the posts Paul, keep up the good work!Adam Ballardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9042646414301340390.post-83981923134498596332009-06-24T10:33:05.218-05:002009-06-24T10:33:05.218-05:00I'm with Jordan. Super Cuts? OMG! But, I total...I'm with Jordan. Super Cuts? OMG! But, I totally understand your delimma and economic reasoning. Two things however,<br />1) Don't always assume "easy" hair is a bad thing. I can tell you have beautiful hair that could be flowing and sexy in a little as an extra 1/2" growth. Just take an extra 3 minutes of your life to add addt'l product and style uniquely. With thicker and longer hair if affords flexibility where the same old style is like white walls with no art. You don't need Fabio length, just a tad. My opinion doesn't mean much cause you have to look in the mirror, but don't be afraid to take the plunge. <br />2) By letting a 1/2" grow out, you can extend your appointments by a couple of weeks, which in turn could save you money to afford a stylist you really want. Year to year you would actually save money.<br />3) Ok, I know I said 2 things, but, the last thing I would say is I cannot think of any hair style that would look bad on you. Cut it however you want and you will look great.....ok, I said it! Good luck PBL and keep up the good work here on Carrots.....so long from Troyland!!!Troy Curtis Wilsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9042646414301340390.post-36687310933822274802009-06-24T10:24:48.320-05:002009-06-24T10:24:48.320-05:00yes...it's true, Jordan.

Please say it isn't so. I...Oh gosh, Super Cuts? Please say it isn't so. I've been going to the guys at Bang! Salon in Wicker Park for over a year now and they are my Sarah. I say "they" because there are at least three people there that I would trust to cut my hair and always do a knock out job: Eli, Johnny, and Shannon are all great. I go in, and have Eli or Johnny do whatever they want, it's usually different, and it is always amazing. They'll do whatever you ask as well but I like the variety.Jordanhttp://www.thatdorkjordan.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9042646414301340390.post-61630540466102632132009-06-24T09:58:56.853-05:002009-06-24T09:58:56.853-05:00You and your freaking hair!
