Hello!
This is not my first post of introducing myself. But I found this video, and decided to share this fun with you.
Recently scrolling down in some folder one video file cought my eye. In this video I'm shaving my head. This is recording from March 2017.
I had never shaved my head before, but I used to wonder how my skull looks from behind. However, I was scared even to imagine myself bald :)
On the morning of March 1, 2017, I woke up, as usual I had my breakfast, sat down at the computer. I still did not know that by the evening my head would be bald as a watermelon. Decision came spontaneously. I took the razor and told myself that today I will do it.
The whole process took an hour and a half. It was very tiring for my hands. With the trimmer, of course, it would be easier, but, first, there was no trimmer. Secondly, there was determination and unbending intent. Thirdly, it was the shaving with an ordinary razor that seemed to me the most true for symbolic meaning of this act.
I have long been planning to go to Tibet for Buddhist wisdom, but worldly life also offers a lot of wise lessons. So I decided that it makes sense to get Buddhist wisdom in the civil world )
Therefore, the shaving of the head was also symbolic for me. In addition to the opportunity to finally see my skull in its full glory, I decided to start a new path in my life, in which I will be even more courageous and decisive than I have been till now :)
And so, after an hour and a half of torment, the feat was accomplished, I was able to see for the first time the part of me that was hidden from sight.
For the first time it was very unusual to feel my head bald. Several times in the mirror I was frightened of my own reflection :D But I had an entertainment - I tried to shave the patterns on the sides, it turned out cool, but only on one side. I managed to draw pattern symmetrically on both sides of head only with the fifth attempt. As a result, after 5 times of shaving sides I got an Iroquois)
Have I changed after this event? Yes. Decisiveness and courage has increased, and many things have ceased to be important. Like combs, hair dryers, shampoos, hair styling products :D
When it was cold for outdoor walks I tied turban.
Now my hair has already grown. Here is the most relevant photo.
I hope you got some amusement watching this video, as it amuses me)
Sorry for my English:)
