Love and trust, haircut and intimacy

This is an Italian film called Taglio d' amore (Cut by love, in a free translation) and it is about a woman who, during a discussion with her man about their relationship, asks him to give her a haircut as a proof of her love, as a brand new step. I like the subtle atmosphere of lust and love, specially when he describes how he sensed with his fingers the shape of her head before doing the first cuts, so delicate... Posted by Harriet.

My inspiration

Another video rather similar to my present haircut, but I have curls, the top is tousled, in a really "messy on purpose" style.

Short going shorter

The music is annoying, the cut is nice. To be honest, it resembles my present style. Enjoy you all! The very short nape lovers may tell me this is not enough, that it could be shorter. They are probably right!

The emotions of having a shorter haircut

Well, it's done and... I adored it. Cold metal on nape, the sound of scissors, clippers buzzing, a lot of hair on the ground. And the pic doesn't show all the hair that fell around me. The feeling was really addictive and I now I yearn for more of it. Excitement competing with fear is an awsome result. How often, if ever, do you experience this?

Enhancing the beauty

Although some people may say that this haircut is just a Victoria Beckhan's clone, no one will deny the beauty revealed by the new style.
Send us your comments, please.

Salons can be more than a place to have a haircut

Some salons offer their clients more than a haircut or coloring. Pedro Remy, in Braga, Portugal, is one of these places, a mix of art gallery and salon, connected to the latest trends for men and women. Men can even get a shave there, in a modern place, with a skilled crew. Listen to the songs they have chosen for their site, relaxing lounge melodies, a treat against urban tension. Their site is bilingual.
Hope more places were like this. The cost of all this luxury is another story, but let's forget finances for at least a second, ok?

Anticipation of new style

Imagine that you are going to the stylist or barber for a haircut. How do you feel imagining skilled hands on your hair, ready to use scissors, clippers, razors on your locks? As an anonymous reader wrote, isn't it a great emotion to imagine how you would look with a new haircolor or style? What if the final result fails to make you happy?
A vivid imagination amplifies the pleasure, anticipating every detail. This is what is happening with me, in a matter of days I 'll be getting a new style, going a little shorter, with a different nape, so-so short...
I bet someone I know will say that my haircut should still be shorter, much shorter! LOL

How do you know?

How do I know if I have a hair fetish? How did I discover it? How do I "deal with it"? I am sure these are questions that many of us have. Please share your answers in the comment section...anonymously if you feel more comfortable in doing so. Or leave your own post?

Our commandments for a hair play gourmet

Harry and I have been chatting today and decided to share with you our perspective concerning hair play. Hair is not just something to be scissored, clippered, razored, shaven... Hair play is something to be savored at the most, slowly, deeply, in a state of full awareness. The Italians say that a meal should be a moment of slow processing, to allow for social interaction, appreciation of life, to increase the pleasure of nourishment. This is the slow food movement, as they wisely call it, in opposition to fast food. Well, we consider everyone should do the same in relation to hair. After all, what are our senses for?
Have you ever enjoyed the perfume of shampoos, conditioners and other hair products? Is it fruity, herbal, floral, what? Your partner's distinctive scent is rich in pheromones, we excret molecules that are related to a certain degree of lusty feelings. For example, have you paid attention to his musky scent as he approaches your hair? Olfactive estimulation is more important than we could imagine.
Hair is an extension of our bodies, and so, hairplay is necessarily a very intimate act, in sexual and non-sexual contexts. Someone is entitled to touch your scalp, ears, forehead, nape. Shoulder, nape and scalp massage is a treasure to be cultivated during hair play. Casual touching, as you cape your partner, for example, can be very erotic and enhance the pleasure of your sessions. Remove snipped hair with the palm of hands, and take advantage of the tickling feeling of a barber brush. Fluffy towels, crisp capes, warm water or lather, all these are enhancers of a good moment. Your skilled hands and fingers are your most important tools in what concerns the tactile aspect.
Additionally, let your partner's ears be estimulated. Choose songs to create a sensual atmosphere (blues, jazzy themes, a little bit old Cole Porter or bossa nova may fit your encounter brilliantly). The metallic sound of scissors and the hypnotic buzzing of clippers can be noticed while they eagerly cut hair and penetrate your partner's mind. Say spicy or tender words, whisper what he or she does expect to listen to, or surprise who sits in your chair with daring sentences never said before.
Bring wine, wild berries, chocolate to the scene, estimulate the gustative pappilae during hair play. And lick your partner, savoring his or her skin. Drop a bit of chocolate syrup on a shaven nape and taste it very slowly. Kisses, many kisses, before, during and after hair play.
Play hide and seek. Capes can hide goose bumps. Blindfold your partner, take the mirror away. Or do the opposite, offering a huge mirror to amplify the experience, position your chair to permit a full vision of all moves. Exhibit your shiny or colorful tools: combs, brushes, scissors, colorful capes, clippers and guards. Face to face conversation, eye to eye contact is a must. Let the sun enter the room. Go outside if this is the case. Explore hair colors.
This is just a very schematic description of the plethora of adorable experiences one can have when they decide to transform hair play into memorable life experience.
We are founding the slow hair play movement! Please, join us.
Harriet.

Attitude means all.


 Wouldn't you, ladies, have a nape buzz if a powerful, strong hand like this one holds the clippers near your ears? Oh sure, a velvety firm voice and the other hand caressing the nape would be a bonus...
