The equatorial haircut
M was getting a little hot with all his hair. Plus, it was a little puffy. :)
It's a naval tradition when you cross the equator the first time to shave your head or at least dump a bucket of salt water on yourself. I choose the bucket, M the razor.
He visited the barber in Ukunda with Mungai and came out with a lot less hair. He simply wanted it shaved but they did some edging to it which is pretty hilarious because it creates tight corners at his temples. Also, he has fantastic tan lines on his head. I still think he looks pretty good though and it's a lot more comfortable he reports.

M got lined-up Jersey Shore style! Hope all is well
ReplyDeleteHi Guys -
ReplyDeleteWell, thanks for the pic (gorgeous background!) And the foreground is also gorgeous - you're looking very Marine-ish, Max.
It's always interesting when you go to a local barber - your dad was taken aback in Korea when the barber included ear-cleaning in the price of a haircut!
love you,
Mom
Rightie Tightie! Nice do (-:
ReplyDeleteLove, Care
Max, it's a testament to great genes when someone looks this good with that splendid 'do! It probably feels good, and that view is fantastic. I have to say that I'm glad E opted for the water bucket!
ReplyDeleteHugs and love,
