Sketch set aside, Neal takes and hand mirror and inspects the work carefully. He runs his fingers through and admires the cut, pleased to see that Wes was able to bring out the natural movement of what is arguably a lush head of hair. He hasn't felt in good barbering hands since New York and while it's not the exact look he would have received from a several-year relationship with the last hair professional he'd engaged in the city, it's more than serviceable.
He tugs at the back near his nape a little more than the rest, finding it a bit too long. It's not a criticism, and he hopes that Wes doesn't take it as one as he turns the page and scrawls an explanation.
THE BACK GROWS FASTER THAN THE FRONT—
Wes is allowed to interpret from there, although if he chooses to leave the length it won't be the end of Neal's good looks or anything like that. He'd just see in two weeks that it's the part of the cut that held up the least and would likely make corrections at that time. Still, Neal's interested in how he takes direction, whether he'll be offended to have his art interfered with or he'll be pleased to have the direct input.
