Hair Update 2

Six weeks and two days later, and I've only been mistaken for a boy twice. Occasionally my mother affectionately tells me I look like an Asian middle school boy. Yes, the boy-ish looking stage has begun.

The summer has also begun, in earnest, allowing me to witness my sweat glisten on my scalp as well as my forehead, something I've never been able to see before. My head now maintains the healthy appearance of a Chia pet. I have never really sought out similarities with our current president, Barak Obama, but I couldn't help to find this one:

My hair is not quite as long as the green sprouts upon Chia Obama's head, but it's getting there. Currently it's about a half inch short. According to my calculations, I should have about four inches of hair next year, just long enough for a eyebrow-length bowl cut of sorts. Oh, the possibilities. 

I'm not sure how long my hair will have to be before it transitions from spiky afro to an unevenly layered shag. Only time will tell. Onwards to the endless potential of naturally odd hair styles!
