For years I have wanted to buzz my hair. I'm seriously think I'm going to do it now that I don't have a husband to Ghost me over it(and so many other things...)
One of the main bones of contention for me and him was My sister, Baby Darlene, was diagnosed with Stage 4 Kidney Cancer a couple years ago. She's been going thru lots of therapies(as I call them) but she has always had the most beautiful long, thick Raven Black (with a natural blue sheen) hair . She gets it from our Native American blood. She asked me and my sisters one day if she did Chemo and started losing her hair, would we buzz ours too. She literally said it in jest- she would never truly ask us to do that in reality- but I immediately said YES- absolutely I would!!....Husband overheard me and when I got off the call with my sisters, he .. FORBADE ... me to even think about it.
After all the stupid ways he had his hair cut and all the stupid styles he's had his beard and 'Stache that I never said a word about, but let him enjoy his choices in peace. He's an adult- it's hair- do what you like with it.
I told him I absolutely WOULD support my sister in whatever way I chose and that was the beginning of his "ghosting" sessions. I think that one lasted about a week and a half and was the beginning of our real troubles.
Time has marched on and many different types of treatments later, my sister hasn't lost ALL her beautiful tresses, but there is a significantly less amount of it- and of all things it's started to turn a corn tinted blonde on the underneath and edges of her temples. It doesn't look bad at all- it's just not the norm for her.
So it's got me thinking again- why don't I just go ahead and DO it????? Who's going to stop me now?
