DOMINANT DREAMS - FILIP

I have had and still have a number of dreams about having my hair cut very short, or even completely shaved. In some dreams, the hair on my head is cut uncompromisingly or removed without any consideration, which corresponds to my obedient and submissive nature. In other dreams, on the contrary, I act in a dominant role and determine who and how will have their precious, sometimes long-grown, hair cut very short, or shaved without any mercy. That will be today's dream that I want to share.
In one of the dreams, I met Filip on a trip, a boy five years younger than me from a neighboring district. Filip had longer, slightly wavy black hair. He didn't take much care of it, he obviously hadn't seen barber's scissors or an electric shaver for a long time. His face was beginning to be covered with a fine dark youthful beard, which Filip had not yet started to shave. At first glance, it was obvious that Filip did not take much care of himself. He missed the supervision of his father, which he did not have, and his mother was no longer enough for him.

During another trip together, we got to talking - and since dreams allow for many, otherwise not entirely real things - I asked Filip why he did not shave, that it would certainly help his otherwise nice face, and thus him in general, a lot. His answer was that he did not have time for it - but I could not agree with such an answer at all. Therefore, I firmly told him - dreams allow me to be very strict - that I could not tolerate it, and that from now on, as the older and more experienced one, I would take over - supervision and care of his appearance, as an authority, myself! And that we would start it right now, that further postponement was not possible!

In the dream, we reached the nearest town, and there we looked for the nearest barbershop, where an older barber with a mustache worked. He looked like an army barber cutting the hair of new recruits. After entering the barbershop, we greeted each other respectfully and after a short wait, the barber asked us what we wanted. It turned out that the barber was quite strict and did not tolerate ugly overgrown mops on boys' heads. I was happy to hear that, but Filip was less pleased with this statement. It seemed that he was not ready to get rid of his bad habits and attitudes, leading to neglecting the care of his hair, beard and overall appearance.

So I asked the barber to shave Filip and cut his hair thoroughly, if possible very short. The barber agreed with pleasure and the exciting transformation began. First came the beard - shaving foam and a sharp razor were a definite success in a moment. Then the strict barber sprayed Filip's wavy black hair, which straightened and lengthened it somewhat. The barbershop came to life with the characteristic buzz of an electric shaver, which mercilessly passed from forehead to crown. A field of nine-millimeter hair formed above the face, which gradually grew. However, Filip's face was still completed by dark hair, completely covering his ears and shirt collar. But not for long - in a short while the electric shaver was eagerly driving without an attachment in the areas around his ears, to completely uncover them and create high arches around them, shining white in the sun of his untanned skin for a very long time. Before I could guess how long Filip's ears and the completely shaved skin around the arches had apparently not seen the sun, the barber asked me if this would be enough. So I approached the chair in which the frightened Filip was sitting, and since I liked the barber's work, I said that it was done completely as expected, to my complete satisfaction. The barber then continued his hard work and, with methodical long strokes of the clipper without an attachment, eliminated the remains of Filip's hideously overgrown mop at the back of his neck, between the nape and the crown. Everywhere, around the chair and on the barber's sheet that tightly wrapped Filip, you could see a large number of long strands and shorter hairs that led to Filip's perfect transformation! After shaving the skin clean, the barber asked me if I was satisfied. I was satisfied, in my opinion the transformation was very successful and led to Filip getting a model of how he should look. I was rightfully proud of myself in the dream - after all, I was the dominant one who ordered this perfect transformation and model!

To my unpleasant surprise, however, Filip was not satisfied. On the way from the barbershop, he kept repeating that it was too short, that he looked like a recruit (he was right about that, I admit), that the barber had not asked him what he wanted (he couldn't have asked him, that was the authoritative decision I made), and the comments were endless. Angrily, I told Filip in a raised voice that if he didn't stop, that we would come back, fortunately we hadn't gone too far, and that I would have him shaved completely bald there. However, Filip wouldn't let me tell him, he kept repeating his dissatisfied comments over and over, so I forced him to go back. The older, stern barber with a moustache was somewhat surprised to see us again after such a short time, but after listening to my complaint, he ordered Filip to sit in the chair and start removing the short haircut he had finished a few minutes ago. First, he removed all his hair with an electric clipper without an attachment, and then, using foam and a sharp razor, he shaved the stubble on his head down to smooth skin. The sight of the white, smooth head with ears that stood out from it satisfied me, and the barber looked satisfied too. Only Filip was not satisfied - streams of tears were running down his face....

When he got up, the barber told him not to cry. Big boys don't cry. Then he unexpectedly asked Filip what had stopped his tears. And do you know what Filip, the ungrateful one, answered him? He said he would be happy if the barber cut and shaved my hair too! But my dominant nature, which I had in the dream, could not possibly allow that. After all, I and only I decide who will be cut and shaved without compromise!!!

At that moment, the dream ended and spared me any further decisions and possible doubts. What would you decide if you were me? Would you let a strict barber with a mustache cut my hair completely according to Filip's wishes and then shave my head cleanly?

I look forward to it and thank you.
