Today is Lag b'Omer, which (goofy as it may sound) is a traditional day for haircuts. [1] I've been meaning to get a few inches of split ends trimmed off anyway, and I remembered seeing what's probably a suitable provider of said service a few blocks from where I work. So I wandered over there, only to find them closed.

Oops. Foiled again.

I don't really know what to do with hair. I like it long and I don't want to have to fuss with it (anything more than "wash, towel dry, comb" is too much work), so I haven't given it much upkeep. It reached a natural endpoint on length a while back that's not as long as I'd like, but oh well. I hear I've got a bad case of split ends, but since I can't actually see them myself I don't tend to remember that. I wonder if trimming a few inches would even help. I'm willing to iterate on small trims over a year to fix the problem, but I'm not willing to cut it short.
