How many of you took the shutdown as an opportunity to grow out your hair? How many of you dreaded the possibility of going weeks and months without a haircut? How many of you bought a version of the "Flowbee” and tried the DIY haircut?

For me, I just let it grow. It’s possible I’m one of the few Trump supporting media hosts with a pony tail. Some friends have said I look like a “Bernie” voter. What do you say? Does appearance matter that much? Can you really tell how a person will vote based on their hair length? What about a close shave?

Here's the before my 2 week vacation photo and after my 2 week vacation photo. What do you think?

Seems to me that one of the positive results of the past few months is the morning routine has gotten a lot quicker. No razor, no comb, no products, just grab a hair tie and head out the door. I could get used to this. Your thoughts?
