Haircut | Hair Cut | Josie Bissett

One evening in May 1997 my wife told me that she would love to cut her hair short.
I was in shock. I loved her long shiny brown hair and couldn't imagine having to live
without it. It was about 5 inches longer than shoulder length and quite straight, with
bangs. It was lovely to see it bounce on her back when she was walking. Running my
fingers through the soft silky hair was a treat. And now she wanted to cut it all off?
What a disaster that would be! We had a long talk about hairstyles and a couple of
days later she went to the salon for ... a trim.

She did make me think however. I had to admit to myself that a short haircut can be
very pretty. I adored the short hair cut of Josie Bissett those days. Each week I was
looking forward to the next episode of Berverly Hills 90210, mainly to admire her ultra-
close crop. At that time she was sporting the lightly layered short haircut with the face-
framing wisps and the sexy buzzed nape. It was especially the nape that was so
irresistible.

One Saturday in July we were invited on a wedding party and, at that time I didn't
realize it yet, but this would have a great influence on my wife's hairdo.
One of the other guests on the party was a young brunette with similar facial features
as my wife and ... the "Josie Bissett haircut"! She looked simply gorgeous and I
couldn't stop admiring her cute short haircut.
Next thing was getting a lot of mixed feelings: seeing my wife dance and her lovely
long brown hair bounce on her back and at the same time seeing the young lady with
the cute short hair cut and the adorable clipped nape. Very different and at the same
time both very pretty ... . I didn't tell my wife anything. I simply enjoyed the view and
tried to make up my mind.

Then it was Sunday evening and I made a decision ... I would ask her to
cut her hair short! We were both sitting on the coach, watching television.
My fingers were running through her soft long hair and then, after hesita-
ting for almost half an hour, I asked her: "Darling, would you still like to
cut your hair short?" "Of course", she said, "I think a short haircut would
really suit me". I knew that she was right. She has the perfect face for a
short hairstyle. "What do you think about Josie Bissett's haircut?", I asked.
"I love it", was the enthusiastic reply". Only minutes later we had an
agreement: She would get her hair cut in the same style is Josie Bissett!

On Monday she would call the hair stylist to make an appointment. I went to work that
Monday and when I got home she had a surprise for me: The appointment was on
Tuesday at 2pm. Less than 24 hours from now and she would be cropped short. At
that moment I fully realized that her long hair was very close to being history! That
night we made the last photos of her with her long hair. She put on some make-up and
a beautiful short sleeve satin button-front blouse. It was hard to imagine that the
lovely long locks that were laying on the luxurious satin of her blouse would soon be
hitting the hard floor in de hairdresser's salon.

It was Tuesday morning. I had a good last look at her long hair before going to work.
"Are you sure?", she said. I stroked her hair and replied: "Go for it!" and then I left for
work.
I got home that night around 5 pm and was thrilled to see her with her new look. We
agreed however to make my meeting with her short haircut special. I was in the living
room, with my eyes closed. Then she entered the room and stood in front of me.
She took my hands and put them on her shoulders. The first thing I felt was the satin
of the blouse, but no long hair on her shoulders. Then the collar of her blouse, and
still no hair. Next was the clipped nape, her lovely ears and ... finally ... some hair
... short hair. Then I opened my eyes and she looked gorgeous! It was a huge
difference compared to her previous look, but she was prettier than ever before.

She kept the short haircut for a while and then grew it out again. Her hair is shoulder
length now. A long layered bob with long bangs, just above her eyes. Last Summer
she was complaining that it was so hot with her long hair. I know that she is ready to
cut her hair again. By the end of next Summer she will probably sport a short gamine
crop again ... .
