Chris, So, you haven't asked them? That being said, how can you know their response? As a parent of two kids, I appreciate your concern for their opinion and am glad you can respect playing by their rules while under their roof (I wish more kids had that attitude).I have to agree with Plano (on the gradual part, no necessarily the "first mistake" comment). Try a buzz cut first. Get used to the idea. Who knows, you may not like it. In a slice of irony, maybe your parents will love it and you'll hate it ! Not likely, but who knows.Good Luck,Schro
