The Haircut: After

Linus Gelber

For today's Thursday Walk, I go to Staten Island for a haircut. It had become, um, critical.

The ongoing and evolving Utata Thursday Walk project is a straightforward one - take the camera, go for a walk. See what comes of it.

This image is from my fourth Thursday outing - the sixth one overall, but I've sat a couple out. I generally do them on Fridays, but I've been off work for the last couple of weeks, so Thursday is fine. I get a late and overcast jump on things, and head out for my Staten Island session with Danielle, who is the only person allowed to touch my hair with Implements of Destruction.

I specialize in showing up to the salon with my hair standing straight up in all directions, since it always gets perky on the ferry ride (I like to ride outside where it's windy). This insures prompt service. "Danielle," they whisper, urgently. "Emergency." "Oh," she says. "Is Linus here?"

See the rest of my Thursday Walk images in the Getting the Hang of Thursdays set.
