Meet my new friends/neighbors






Shaggy is my personal favorite. Have you ever seen a shaggy, blonde cow like that? He is so cool, we hang out from time to time.

An exciting housing post to come soon!

Living life - Special Hair edition

For about a year now I have had this brother in law, who always speaks of "LIVIN' LIFE!" So I thought it was time I contributed a small piece of some of the LIVIN' of LIFE that I have down in the past, and may do in the future.

Today's topic...Hair.

First let me throw a special thank you out to some of my past barbers/stylists/hair colorist: Heidi Wiest, Mom, myself of course, and my most consistent during the teenage years and occasionally now, Les. Thank you, that is one reason I search for referrals for Trev.

Unfortunately I could not find all necessary pictures. But I have found some. Sorry some are small.

The part. Special thanks to my mom. This actually continues to surfice even today. Crave the wave from grandpa Carlile.


The Flat top. Special Thanks to Jerome Kersey for this one.


Probably my most common cut from ages 10-16ish. Couldn't go wrong with this, easy maintenance.


Its not bleach. I used to get FOF-ed when people told me it was bleach, it was Lesley's left over hair color stuff.


Looks like Big I and Aaron liked the buzz pic from earlier years. This is a pattern we see throughout the family, continuing hair styles from cousin to cousin.


Not sure what I called this one, but I was a big fan. Maybe colored-mini fro.


I am the one in the middle with the rainbow hair and chicken legs.


The "I'm cool, I have highlighted tips" phase that every guy went through.


The shag, blown into an afro. "Evan Carlile standing 6'2" and 6'" with the hair..." -Pat Williams


The shag and the wings I loved so much, especially with hats.


The big shag. Age 18 was just a prime hair year for me.


The most famous, BOLSEYE. Which really has more meaning now that Target is in the family.
