An afternoon at the hairdresser.

Well. what  to do? Should she wait for the hair to fall into pillow from the chemo? Rather, 'head them off at the pass'...  Off we rode to the legendary Peter The Haircutter  - a  man with some really creative chops, so to speak. (BTW: This is NOT an ad for Peter - because as I understand it he's got a quite a lengthy waiting list.)

And, perchance, should you wish to see the whole, way-cool creative hair-cutting process, click HERE for the 3 minute video. (I have fixed the soundtrack) It had a really fun sound track, until YouTube deleted the sound for  copyright violation...

Anyway, fun was had. Peter had carte blanch to create, and in the process turned Maryse facing away from the mirror, so only at the finale did she see the result. This had the added benefit of making it easier for me to shoot.

If ya gotta do something, do it in style.

    Gosh Maryse, you look wonderful - and you look abt a decade younger than when we first met - prob a zillion years ago! The style suits you beautifully.
    Blessings & Love

    Watching the video: what a cool way to be with you from far away, Maryse: reminding me of your smile, your playfulness, your passion, your presence. - and thinking of you today, as you come home.
