      I’d turn it inside out if it was me, but only as a precaution. It probably isn’t necessary with OD’ed denim.

            My wife stopped coloring her hair and cut it to shoulder length and now she looks like Mallory Archer.
            I live in constant fear.

              Has something changed radically in relationships between men and women during this crisis? Surely you mean, “Should I continue the pretence that I have some say in what my wife does with her hair”?

                No no, I'm talking about my hair.  My barber is effectively out of business.  Sure that's sad, but what about my grooming needs?

                I've been looking at YT videos on how to do a simple fade with clippers.  I'm not trying to have her cut the length on the top or anything.  I'm still a bit dubious about letting her do it though.  These are desperate times however…

                  Oops, my apologies. Sometimes I don’t pay enough attention. Yes! Do it. It’s win/win. Either it ends up good and you save money post corona, or she butchers it completely in which case she owes you big.

                        Thank you. I’ve been making archer references for weeks and she doesn’t get it

                          If I were about to embark on an adventure like yours I’d commit to either shaving my head regularly with clippers or growing it out

                            I've been really struggling with this.  Those 2 options do seem like the most reasonable.  I'm not sure I can find a happy place with either though.  I'm certain I'd like like an asshole with my hair grown out.  I have a big head and my hear is super wavy and receding .  If I grew it out I'd be your next Netflix Documentary obsession before long.

                            I'm going to let her give it a try later today.  I'll report back…

                                Just shave it. Life is easier that way.

                                Of course, there's always the possibility that you'll end up as ugly as Seul if you do.  I'm pretty sure there's no chance you'll end up as ugly as me, so there's that.

                                    I'll let that slide because you're keeping Paula properly fed and I actually like her.

                                        Thanks @Chris - I appreciate the love because Giles has offered to cut my hair, several times recently, and I'm getting a little nervous…  ???  I think he's planning to use a cutthroat razor...
