It's all in your Genes

You can relax, I'm not gonna talk about Cell Biology here. And you can safely bet that I'll never ever do.

Anyways, as much as I'd love great hair to flaunt, I don't think that day's ever going to come. Well, that's not being negative. That's being realistic. Plus it's great too! It means that I get to wear caps. More specifically, it's the Ed Hardy caps that scream "LOOK AT ME!".

So I finally got my great hair cut today. As if! I never, never, never get good hair cuts. And I mean NEVER! It's not the hairdresser's fault though.

It's the fact that I have problematic hair growth that's hindering the great hair cuts. Kinda sad, don't you think? I actually feel lousy just thinking about it. So today, at the hairdresser, I was feeling really positive that I'll get a great cut for once. Yet in the end, I didn't.

So I finally got hit by the hard and cold truth: With hair like mine and still wanting to get nice haircuts, I gotta wake up!

And it took me so long to realise the fact. It took numerous, countless even, of bad cuts for me to finally realise that I have severely uneven hair growth for haircuts to be great. The hairdresser said, "Your hair grow in all directions. Very difficult, but I'll help you,"

Previous hairdressers must have felt the same, only that they never said it. Why, I think they should have told me long ago. But now's not too late either. I'm just glad that I am able to get to the, well, root of the problem. At least I feel better for myself.

And hey, this isn't a problem that I can snap my fingers and solve. I'd like to see it as more like a defect. Defect in my genes. That's the root cause. Defects arise during the production process. The only way to rid of defects is to get a replacement, which in this case is virtually impossible.

But if you look at things on the whole, I've got really great genes despite for that one and only defected one. Nature's been great to me. Nurture's been even better. And I'm so thankful for that.
