Let others point out your weak sides if you can´t see them yourself.

Okay. I have this tendency to brag about skills I don´t necessarily have, but wish I had. One of these "wanna have"-skills is hairdressing. I have cut about four people in my entire life, and today was my fifth try. Three of these I have had success with, and even I was surprised by the positive outcome. So. Of course I said I could cut my friend´s hair today. I thought, well, this could go really well! What I didn´t come to think about is that his hair is a bit more challenging to cut than the other´s were. So. Now he looks kinda like a punk on his left side, leaving his right side kinda straight. The good thing about this is that he looks really handsome from the right side, and the bad thing is that this notion gets really challenged when he turns his head.

So. I think I´ll give up hair cutting for a while. Even if the percentage of "good looking after me cutting their hair"- statistics is about 70 %. This isn´t exactly good commercial for myself, but I´ll be honest with you. I could do like Atle Antonsen´s figure, he who has "Honest Clothes", for instance wide stripes on an already quite wide body, long dresses for short people, and light colors clothing for albinos.

I´m like Honest Cutting; You probably won´t look very good after me cutting your hair, but at least I tell you now, and we´ll probably have a good laugh afterwards. Hopefully.
