I Made Hair-Ties From Mask Straps…
Throughout my life, I have alternated from short hair to long.
For a couple of years to just as the pandemic kicked in, I had very short hair. I always cut it myself with a barbers’ razor, usually set to No.4, so it was not nothing to do with shops and services being closed that I just decided to let it grow again.
Earlier this year, it became long enough to warrant tieing back sometimes.
Because I always remove the straps from the facemasks, (I always throw them away into a proper rubbish bin, _if_ it somehome gets into nature, I don’t want it strangling som epoor creature), when I found I needed to tie my hair back, I had some straps in my pocket, so I quickly knotted one into a loop to make a tie.
After that, I used several ties platted together to make a more sturdier (and of course _better looking!_) hair-tie.
We always called hair-ties “ponios” (Pony-O, ponio, whatever…), so, because these are made from face-masks…
Ladies and gentlemen, girls and boys, Apache attach helicopters, I give you…
“The Coronio!”
