Quarantine buzz cut selfie
A selfie of my fresh quarantine buzz cut. I decided to shave my hair off when it became overgrown as a very potent sign that I will not be going to get a hair cut until it is actually safe to do so, not just safe for me as the consumer but safe for people whose job it is to cut hair. There is a lot of tension in the US at this time between people who feel that we need to open up the economy in order to facilitate a speedy return of the status quo and those who argue that it is not worth losing more lives to save the economy. I wanted it to be visually clear that I do not intend to endanger someone else or be part of their having to choose between financial ruin and physical illness simply for the sake of my own vanity.
