Keep the unmanageable hair! Once you get a 'practical' cut, it really is a sign of ageing! You'll be wearing tracksuits in bars next. It's my wife's 50th in three weeks, and she still looks a Goddess and has wonderful hair! As Coco Chanel once said 'Comfort is never a substitute for style'.

I should like to point out that your boy has gorgeous hair---and therefore, I hate him. Well, I suppose perhaps it could be a hideous case of hair-envy...
I way understand the crazy hair problem---did I mention I hate men who have gorgeous straight hair?---mine does an impression of a stoned poodle in the Amazon if I do not devote way more time than I want to to try and keep it looking merely frizzy.
Alas, my partner finds it wonderful, so the best I can manage is to keep most of the split-ends clipped off.
Oh, you are so right about honesty being overrated! I'd much rather be sweetly lied to than have a good honest kick in the teeth.
When I grew my hair long, two decades ago, I went through a stage of resembling that bear out of the Hair Bear Bunch. Not my best look. 'Scrutty' is the most descriptive term a hairdresser has ever used for my hair. More than an inch long and I begin to look like some kind of sociopath.
boobs and tea. boobs and tea. and I honestly am surprised that show ran for so long; the first time I saw an episode, I thought it was maybe a mini series, because I automatically assumed nobody could give two shits to run it for anylonger.... quite odd.
and nix the burial plot, cremation is the way to go.
