An Elegante Hair Cut

Getting your hair cut anytime, anywhere can be an adventure.  Getting it cut in Cozumel, adds an extra layer of adventure.  I kinda like it.

Most years, I arrived in Cozumel with longish hair that's easy to tie up. Practical in this climate.  Then went to Dona Lety to get it cut before coming home.  She was super pleasant, gave me a good enough cut (hair grows back!), and charged about $4.  Wonderful!!!

But her shop is gone now.  I truly hope she's happily retired & enjoying some well earned time off.

So time for a change.  A few changes!  Get my hair cut at the beginning of my trip. Shorter hair! At least in back.  Off my neck. No elastics required!  And a new shop.  There are many.  But which??  

So.....on my way home from LaMonina, with a mojito still affecting my capacities.... I stopped at "Elegante", a fancy hair dresser on the Malecon (main water front street).  I'm mostly happy with the results.  The cut is fun.  But I definitely have less hair than expected.  And without some clips holding the front parts back, I have some pretty big clown puffs at the front....

4) My lunch at Billy's Asadero.  I need to come here at least once each year.  They moved since last year, just down the street a little.  Good call. The new location is bigger and prettier. Still a good deal. 1kg of perfectly BBQed boneless porc chops for about $21.
