Crew Cut |

The day I went to school with a crew cut, I was
greeted by roars of laughter and plenty of comments. I
really looked funny with a crew cut but I was forced to
have my hair cut that way. It was my foolishness and my
cousin's fault that it happened. Here is how it happened.
The monthly ritual of visiting the barber to get my
hair cut was tedious. Long hair was like a sin and mine was
beginning to cover my ears. My cousin reckoned that he
could save me some money if I let him cut my hair. He assured me that he knew how to do it properly.
So foolishly I allowed him to use a pair of scissors
on my hair. After five minutes of his handiwork, one look
in the mirror told me that it was a disaster. His scissors
had created havoc on my beautiful hair! I protested but he
assured me that he had not finished and the finished
product would be great.
It became even worse. The cut was so uneven and
haphazard that I had no choice but to visit a real barber to
correct the damage.
The barber laughed and said that the only remedy
was a crew cut. So I reluctantly agreed to it. The final
result was that my hair looked and felt like bristles, being
only two or three millimetres long. At least it looked
better than the mess my cousin made.
I found that a crew cut was not too bad after all. I
did not have to comb my hair and my head felt much
cooler. As for the laughter and comments, they stopped
after a while.
