My First Haircut

When I was in grade school, it was standard procedure stay at Grandma’s towards the end of summer. The week would end with a shopping trip for new school clothes at The Penny’s in Price and a trip across the pasture to Connie’s house for the new “school do”. Connie was (and still is) the "go to girl" for hair in Huntington. Being that it was the mid-80s, Grandma would request a cut and permanent(people over 70 refer to “perms” by their full name). No, I am NOT going to post a pre-braces, 1980s perm picture…it would sear out your eyeballs. However, it was with great pleasure that I was able to take Eole to Connie’s for her very first haircut!

Connie has upgraded to a new, beautiful house with her little salon right off the garage. If I could have anyone in the world give my girl her first haircut, it would have been Connie.
