Back to the clean face


There's a possibility of me having to talk to some important city people this week and I figured the handlebars might be a little much for them.
I like to keep a new look just long enough for people to start thinking..."Is he seriously going to keep that thing on his upper lip forever?" When I reach that point...I keep it for 4 more days...then...something new.
It's the curse of the bald man. I gotta switch it up.
I think the eyebrows might go next time!

OUCH!!!


Smashed my head on the corner of the door of the car today...good times! Shaving around the wound was not fun.
We had a little family Christmas this morning...it was awesome.
Dollar store gifts for the kids and Alyssa made these sweet towels with hoods on them for when they get out of the bath. Zeke's has a Z on it. He thinks it's a cape.
Gettin' ready to leave for Riverside. We're gonna take off Monday morning at about 3am...good times...drive while kids are sleeping.
I'm leading worship tomorrow at the Stirring. Nate called me tonight and feels like puke so there is a possibility that I'll have to speak tomorrow. That would be interesting!
Let's pray for Nate.
Last blog till Riverside.
Pray there is no snow on the grapevine...chains are not my friend!

Grooming day part II


This is part one if you're late to the conversation.
Here's the final question you have to ask yourself when you enter the realm of shaving your arms...what do you do with the knuckles???
I shave my arms because my arm hair is like Sherwood forest and my tattoos become unrecognizable under the fury coat.
I usually shave my arms about once a month with the clippers. You always get to the end and ask yourself...do I leave the knuckle hair?
It looks kind of weird to have baby smooth arms and fury knuckles so I went for it today!
I am also now convinced that I should never make important decisions when I'm grooming because I think of the strangest things during these moments in my life.
Until next Sunday...

Sunday is groomin' day

Being bald is awesome! I haven't really had hair in a photo since our wedding pictures.
I am in a constant battle to make my life more simple. For years I've shaved every other day or every three or four days. But I have found that I can get away with shaving my head once a week now. I will usually shave the neck once or twice through the week but Sunday is grooming day. I have everything boiled down to about 15 minutes once a week...amazing!
Here's the routine:
1. Trim bottom of the beard with #2 extension
2. Trim sides of beard and mustache with #1 extension
3. Trim from bottom of the ear to middle of the ear with no extension, higher setting
4. Trim from middle of the ear to top of the ear with no extension, lower setting (makes for the perfect transition to the baldness)
5. Shave the head
6. Shave the neck
7. Newly added to the routine. Trim the arm hair with clippers...no extension. (This is not in attempt to highlight my guns...it's because my arm hair is out of control and there is a forest on my left arm that makes it impossible to see my tattoos. Then if I leave the forest on the right arm it looks crazy...hence...it all comes off.)
8. Periodically thrown into the mix...cut down the 3 inch stragglers that sprout from my shoulders.

And that's all folks. 15 minutes every Sunday morning. The life of a bald man. Don't be jealous.

Is your grooming process simple or crazy?
