Headshave, an immeadiate decision by Akshay From india

---

I am akshay 22 yr aged guy ,having long hair just i kept this cut after the influence of captain jack sparrow i was maintaining my hair. I never allow anyone to touch my hair. I was so much attached with my hair. But one day everything came to an end. My uncle ringed me and said that my grandmother passed away, my mom, dad and I soon went to the village. Dashakarma (10th day after the death) day came, this is the day in when all the male relatives of the family of the dead person, should shave their heads bald and shave off their faces,too. Firstly, I refused and my parents also agreed and supported me, but the villagers didn't allow and they told that, it is a ritual and should be followed. After hearing this I tried to run away to some other village but soon my cousins were ordered to find me and bring me to village in shaved head.

One of cousin caught me and told me that villagers finally agreed with u and took me to all other cousins. Then he gave a loud laugh and told that I am fooled. All were in shaved head except me. I tried to run away but failed. my elder cousin brother grabbed me by my hair. I cried but they didn't listen. He forcibly take me to the village barbershop. That wasn't a shop, it was house of an old aged barber, who used to cutt hair and shave beards at the corridor of his house. They brought me towards the barber and told him that "isse fatafat mundan karo,ek bhi bal bachna chaiye", (shave his head ASAP!, not a single strand of hair should be spared) as the barber saw me as crying he denied that he will not shave me. But my cousin said the name of uncle who is panchayath ( committee of 5 people in indian villages) leader and told that this is his order. The barber finally agreed. He looked at my face and said "You are now looking like a girl with that shaggy long hair, in 5 min you will look like a man. But I started shouting throwing tantrums, so the barber told my cousin to take me to lake side and he will come with straight razor. They took me and brought near the lake and told me to sit quietly but I was trying to run away. They forcefully stripped me naked to avoid my escapade. Everybody was laughing at me,as I was I hiding myself behind a huge bush, soon the barber came and asked for me. They told "woh raha nanga use aise sekh sikhau ki itna saf mundan karna ki mahina tak bal hi nai aaye" ( this is the naked guy, shave him so smooth that not a single hair should dare to grow on his scalp till one month).
He said, "ok" and came near to me, I was weeping there, he said "bachha mundan karwa le,ek mahine me bal aa jayenge" (get your head shaved,child!..your hiar will regrow back within one month). He soon asked my cousin whether he can start shaving, my cousin replied saying "OK".
The barber looked at my face and he asked, is this the first time for you to get your head shaved?". And he asked whether to start or not. I took courage and gave signal for him to start. He poured bowl of water onto my head and he massaged for sometime. He said that "your hair is so nice sir" and he started by bending my head. He placed the razor on the middle of the head and started moving. I felt the cooling breeze which touches my head. He slowly moved my head towards my right side and a lump of hair fall onto my lap, he turned my head towards my left side and he did the same. It took just for a few minutes to complete the task.
Tears came out of my eyes but I stopped them.later he proceed shaving off my beard and moustache At last the barber said that headshave is completed and he gave me the mirror to see my head without hair and it was wonderful to see the new face in the mirror.I was very much embarrassed with my bald head. Soon my cousin came inside and laughed on me , I went to village and got adjusted with my new haircut. Now i have 2 inches long hair, and I wish for another head shave.
