I'm thinking about getting my hair cut. Short.
I've had the same "hairstyle" for years. And I use that term loosely. Regardless of how I leave the house, my hair is in a pony tail within an hour.
And both of my daughters think cutting my hair short is a horrible idea. Although they didn't specifically use the word "hag", their message was clear.
Then I had the most scathingly brilliant idea EVER.
I went to one of those websites where you can upload a photo and it will superimpose various haircuts on you, so you know exactly what to expect.
Here's how I'd look with a Jennifer Hudson hairdo (and some breast implants).
Wait a minute. I just realized that I wasn't supposed to smile in my photo.
I started over, with a new mug shot. (I am not going to share that image with my readers, for I don't want to cause any permanent emotional scarring.)
You're welcome.
Here are some of my hairdo options. I'm not so sure about Taylor Swift.
Halle Barry? Maybe a bit too short.
I decided to go a bit longer. Victoria Beckham is quite a beauty.
Holy crap! I look like Adolph Hitler after a shave.
Maybe that Twilight girl's hair.
Or not.
I know! I think Rihianna's hair looks great on her!
OMG. Sorry, about that, readers. That was almost as bad as my original mug shot.
You know what? Madonna's more my age. Maybe I should just go with her hair.
Holy stinkin' cow!!!
Please forgive me for subjecting you to such inhumane torture. This blog should have come with a warning label.
Perhaps I should listen to my daughters, after all. They are right every now and then.
This might be a good time to trust them.
Lou, I think you should revisit these possibilities and approach them again with 3 tiny changes:
ReplyDelete1) DO smile. (Why wouldn't you?)
2) DO let your chin show! Where did it go in these images?
One final suggestion (from your sister who tried to check out virtual GLASSES online):
3) DON'T bug your eyes...
As for me, I went to an eyeglass website to experiment with new frames. This required submitting a photo, with eyes placed in a particular position on the "page." I'll bet I took 25 of them. Each time I uploaded them, I was informed by the website, "We can't find your eyes." That small, huh? Oh. Thank you very much.
These virtual deals can be hard on one's ego!
