Zeke's First Haircut
Close to ten years ago a Sallie meet a hairstylist named Orion. Through her just about every friend we know has had their hair cut, colored, highlighted, styled, etc by Orion. We have all (probably a group of ten or fifteen people) followed him around to the different salons he's worked at over the years.
The thing about Orion is that he is very, very good at what he does. He does fashion week in NYC, has styled just about every model's hair, works for magazines, and has what's probably equivalent to a Master's degree in coloring. The best thing about Orion is that he is just a really cool guy. He's become a friend.
Right now he works at a salon whose prices are way outside of our groups ability to pay. So about once a month Orion comes over and we turn our apartment into a hair salon.
Last week Zeke watched in amazement as Levi got his haircut. Of course after Zeke saw Levi get his haircut he desperately wanted to do the same. Orion didn't even hesitate to have Zeke sit down to get his first trim. Cutting 18 month old kids hair is not a clientele that Orion usually handles, but Zeke was AMAZING. He held perfectly still and allowed Orion to cut his hair for about ten minutes. At the end of the cut Zeke said "thank you" and then "again."
Thanks Orion you are the best!
