That Time I Pulled an Emma Watson

A couple days ago, I got to be a hair model for the Vidal Sassoon in Chicago. The photo above is a doodle of the haircut I was given; the classic Five Point cut created by Vidal in the 60s. It's a geometric cut that revolutionized the way hairdressers looked at shaping hair. I would take a picture of my own hair, but I don't feel like taking a photo in this shitty apartment within an arms-length of my head would really do this haircut proper justice.

The greatest part about the whole thing? I got Mark Hayes to cut my hair. Mark Hayes, the international creative director at Vidal Sassoon (in London bitches!) cut my hair not only for free, but paid me to let him do it! He was so charming and really a brilliant hairdresser.

I'm so glad I finally got my hair cut short too. I've been wanting to for the longest time, but I wasn't sure exactly what style I wanted and I wasn't sure where to go to get it done. But this was the push I needed. I've got to say, I absolutely love it. Vidal's "wash and wear" philosophy definitely applies here. I haven't had to take a blow dryer to my hair once since I've had this hair cut, it really styles itself. You might think that this kind of cut isn't very wearable outside of a runway, but I've figured out a few ways to style it that make it much more every day.

Here's how I'm wearing it tonight:
It's kind of fun slicking it back like that, it makes me feel like a boy. Is that weird?
