Who's going to cut your hair in Jamaica?

 

For about the last year, I had been getting my hair cut by Janine at The Cutting Edge in Glencoe, MN. 

Final haircut with Janine

I loved Janine!  She's talented, fun, interesting, and kindhearted.  I was always happy with my haircut, and I always enjoyed talking with her.  

 

Lots of people wondered how I would find a hairdresser in Jamaica.  I wondered that, too.  Guess what?  The Lord even cares about detail like haircuts. 

 

Sharon is a Jamaican woman who lived in the U.S. for many years, where she was a hairstylist, cosmetology instructor, and master gardener (among other things).  She has now moved back to Jamaica and volunteers at Robin's Nest every week, developing the garden.

 

She brought her shears along this week and kindly set up shop on the porch...

 

 

where she had a lot of help from her new apprentices, as well as a steady stream of other children (each of whom had various opinions about the length and style of my haircut!)

 

I'm thankful to consider Sharon a new friend, and I'm thankful for the provision of a new stylist.

Two recommendations when you need a haircut:  if you're anywhere in Minnesota, find Janine; anywhere in the Caribbean, come up to the Nest and make an appointment with Sharon (and at least a few children).
