It's true

Friday, January 05, 2007

Well, all those dirty rumors you've heard are true. The infamous faux-hawk is no more. Now is where some of you may ask, "What is a faux-hawk anyways?". And still others of you may ask, "What does the word 'faux' mean?" So, I suppose the best way to proceed would be to give a little defining. Let's start with the word "faux"....meaning artificial, imitation or fake. The term "faux-hawk" comes from combining the words faux and mohawk. An actual, true-to-definition mohawk would be a head shaved completely except for the strip down the center, typically standing up, giving your classic mohawk look. So, persons such as myself who do not wish to completely shave all but this strip (due to professional reasons mostly) improvise a little. You simply lather up with some sort of hair styling product and push your hair up and together at the top/middle of your head, giving the resemblance of a mohawk, but still nevertheless fake....hence, a faux-hawk.

So, now that we have that out of the way.....you ask....."Why is the infamous faux-hawk no more?"

In honor/support/love/etc. of my amazing aunt, I have shaved my head. She has had breast cancer, went through radiation and chemo and all that mess, got through it. And now they have found something else, and she is going through this again. We/She knew she would lose her hair (again, for the second time), and I told her that I wanted to shave my head with her when her hair fell out. So, a little over a week ago, it happened. We talked and made an appointment to go to the hair cuttin' place. Although like 98% of her hair had fallen out, she still a couple spots here and there. So, she had the rest of her hair shaved off, and I had my head completely shaved. The old ladies at the beauty salon were absolutely loving it, by the way. I'm certain they thought I was the kindest, most loving and caring young man to ever grace these lands. And boy are they right!

So, as of this very moment, it is not completely slick shaved. I'll probably do that in the next day or so myself with a razor. It is, however, as short and shaved as the lady there could get it....so there is barely a stubble left. You probably wouldn't know anything was left up there if my hair weren't so dang dark. Anyways, I know you're all dying to see....so enjoy. I'm just proud that I didn't end up having some terribly deformed head.
