Attention to The cutting crew at Salon Nova in general and Jessica,

in particular, (who did a wonderful job
sprucing up my unruly birds nest -
and tantamount to endangering

nearly the following pestilential species

that thrive in unkempt hair:

Human hair naturally

hosts a delicate microbiome,

but when left unwashed

and uncombed, conditions shift

to favor specific parasitic insects

and microorganisms, which primary inhabitants

that capitalize (true to Marxist philosophy)

proliferate within these environments include:

Head Lice (Pediculus humanus capitis):

Small, blood-sucking insects

that live on the scalp

and attach their eggs (nits)

to the hair shaft.

Despite the common myth,

lice do not actively prefer

unwashed or \"dirty\" hair;

they simply get drawn

to the warm blood supply of the host.

However, uncombed hair

such as mine before being cut

provided a sheltered,

undisturbed environment

for nits to incubate and multiply.

Fortunately and luckily that never happened.
Demodex Mites (Demodex folliculorum

and Demodex brevis):

Microscopic arachnids

that live inside the hair follicles

and sebaceous glands.

They feed on the sebum

(natural oils) produced

When hair not washed,

sebum accumulates,

creating a larger food source

that can trigger an overgrowth

of these mites.

Malassezia (Fungi):

A genus of naturally occurring yeast

that thrives on the oily secretions

of the human scalp.

If hair not washed, sebum

and sweat builds up, allowing

this fungus to proliferate

and contribute to dandruff

or seborrheic dermatitis.
Normal Scalp Microbiome (Bacteria):

Bacteria like Staphylococcus

and Cutibacterium normally exist

on human skin.

Unwashed hair, especially

when allowed to become

matted or tangled,

traps sweat and dead skin cells,

encouraging these bacteria

to multiply rapidly.
While some insects

like bedbugs or fleas

can occasionally crawl

through hair, only head lice

and Demodex mites

fully adapted to complete

their entire life cycles directly

on the human head.

 

My humble apology

for losing myself (without my religion)

to a rather gross scenario,

but hands of mine operate

with a mind all their own.

 

Long a staple of my
a bum-in-a-bull appearance videlicet
(which means \"namely,\"
\"that is to say,\" or \"as follows\")
long unruly hair of mine,
I credit thee for helping me
feel like a million bucks,
and more deadset to comply

with being more determined

than ever before in my life

practice healthy hygiene,
and maintain fashionable hairstyle,
which promises (to abide

until death do me part)
attention to grooming myself,
which behavior formerly from today

usually got shrugged off

and given the short shrift
as the days and weeks elapsed
after finally summoning courage
to entrust a skilled technician
whose small, medium and large
claim to fame lies within dextrous fingers
clasping scissors plus
a brush and/or comb
analogous to an individual
adroit within the science and art of topiary
the name of a person,
who sculpts hedgerows into animals
to be admired
such asTim Bushe:
A London architect
who gained fame
for trimming his neighbors\' hedges
into various animals,
including cats, elephants,
fish, hippos, and squirrels, such that
his work became
a recognized Google Maps landmark,
and also similar
to a resident named Bill Thurman
(who resides here at Highland Manor
with his Tuxedo cat
he named Corbin Andrew Thurman,
and prioritizes his smart
as a whip furry four legged feline)
but lacks ways and means
to hustle his amazingly graceful
while being wheel chair bound
and non-ambulatory

and much restricted with leaden arms
due to countless injuries
throughout his seventy plus years
where he mainly lived

within the states
of Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, Kentucky,
Louisiana, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina
and honed a craft
incorporating trash (which
he pulls out from the dumpster) into treasure
yet being morbidly obese (linkedin to
aforementioned industrial accidents),
nevertheless assembles awesome
finished products that could probably
fetch quite a bundle of money courtesy
(think small fortune) if sold off at
the following Premier Auction Houses:
Christie\'s: The world\'s leading art business,
hosting high-profile live
and online auctions for historic,
modern, and contemporary masterpieces.
Sotheby\'s: Operating since 1744,
a premier destination
for fine art, luxury items,
and rare collectibles,
offering a robust online bidding interface.
Phillips: Specializing specifically
in 20th and 21st-century
contemporary art, design,
photographs, and editions.
Bonhams: A globally
renowned auction house
that handles both fine art
and a diverse range of collectibles,
from classic cars to Asian art.
