Even Monsters Need Haircuts
Even Monsters Need Haircuts | Matthew McElligott
6 posts | 4 read
Just before midnight, on the night of a full moon, a young barber stays out past his bedtime to go to work. Although his customers are mostly regulars, they are anything but normal-after all, even monsters need haircuts. Business is steady all night, and this barber is prepared for anything with his scissors, rotting tonic, horn polish, and stink wax. It's a tough job, but someone's got to help these creatures maintain their ghoulish good looks. Perfect for Halloween, this is a hilarious story about a boy who follows in his father's footsteps . . . in his own monstrously unique way.

Since @cassiopia asked when I had JUST done my hair, here is my new hair after its been washed and conditioned a few times.

To answer common questions, yes I use conditioner. MEN CAN CONDITION TOO. And if you had my hair, after bleach, you'd condition the heck out of it too. And my tat says "I'll be the wings that keep your head in the clouds". Matches a tat with @anewton91

TheLibrarian My hair is bleached too and I‘m pretty sure there isn‘t enough conditioner in the world to make it silky smooth again! 5y
jessinikkip @TheLibrarian I feel you. My hair is sslloowwllyy getting there, but its been a WHILE since I had done any color and I didnt go too crazy this time. I just had to have something different and dye was pretty cheap. Figured if I hated it, could always cut it off and start over haha 5y

Bookzombie You look great! I'm rather uncoordinated when trying to use a dryer and a round brush, so I have a hot air brush that I use sometimes. 7y
Jess7 Cute hairdo! 7y
diovival Nice cut! 7y

Before and after grooming glamour shots. Elliott is not a morning dog but loves getting a haircut. It also gives me a good excuse to leave work early and read my book. 💕📚💕🐶
