After getting used to her blindness, she’s still cutting hair!  She said that cutting hair is like sculpturing!  You have to feel how thick and long it is.  Then it’s not hard to cut how ever way people want it done!  I guess because she saw before, maybe that helped her have the confidence to keep doing it!    One of her clients said that she cuts her hair the same as when she saw!  The Beautician also said that with a good attitude, you accomplish just about anything!    Great story!    Sincerely, Linda
