Change is not something that all of us embrace easily. Sometimes, we may even hold onto something for many years out of concern that change is not going to work.
Perhaps that is how a 63-year-old mother from Minnesota felt when she considered getting her haircut. Karen had the same haircut for 50 years and it was important to her, because she hadn’t cut it since she was 13 years old.
It all started when she got a pixie cut in the first grade and she couldn’t stand the way that it looked. She said that she would never cut her hair from that day forward, and she’s stuck with her promise for 50 years.
Now that Karen is in her 60s, she found it difficult to continue to maintain her waist-length hair. It was beautiful, but it was also heavy and she felt that it was more of a burden.
She said: “There’s long hair all over my house that I don’t need. It’s gotta go. It’s too heavy.”
That is when she made the decision that a change was in her future. In order to accomplish it, she went to ‘the Makeover Guy’, Christopher Hopkins. She knew that he had exactly what it took to give her a fresh start.
It took a lot of trust in Christopher, but she put it there and saw the benefits of doing so. She was ready for something new but she had no idea just how much it would change her outlook and her physical appearance.
