Fade-In Hair Cut: Fail

As a Marine, my husband is required to always have a clean cut and shaved face. This means a haircut every week and here in Monterey, that equals to almost one thousand dollars a year. In an effort to save money, we have talked about cutting his hair myself. Well, my mom gave us a Wahl haircut set for Christmas so last night, I cut Dean's hair.

I didn't think I did a bad job but I could tell where there were patches of "holes." In my defense, it is my first haircutting experience ever; we waited until dark to cut his hair so we had very poor lighting; and fade-in haircut is one fo the most difficult cuts out there---even some professionals have a hard time doing it! Well, I must have done such a horrible job because he ended making me shave his head.

He's going to kill me for posting this! (see: unshaved face)

He is also growing out his mustache... He said he will shave it once he completes his first full marathon in April or when he gets promoted to Corporal, whichever comes first. Oh boy.
