Hair-raising effort!

Since my high school days, I've been religiously going to the barber shop every month to trim my hair n keep it short. When I used to do that until last month, many people used to say "Why dont you have a haircut?" right within a couple of days of me doin the same! Now last month I decided to change my hairstyle for the 1st time in my life; was bored keeping the old one for 22 years (it looked kinda schoolboy cut).
I thought of going for the long hair look and keepin' de'm groomed backwards. So i didn't go to the salon and somewhat just changed the direction of the hair partition to center. And bingo! Next day, people said "So...went for a haircut huun?" I was perplexed...When I used to get my hair trimmed, it wasnt noticed and when I didn't, just my change of style evoked a 180 degress response! Hehehe...anyway I'm just lovin this new look and am waiting for my hair to grow long enough, wanna surprise people who haven't seen me since a long long time!
