The Hair Bear Bunch

I Learnt something extremely important today, do not even sit in the chair at the hairdressers without a full background check.
A number of things went wrong in the salon.
I forgot the most important question concerning my hair "can you cut curly hair?".
The hairdresser had baby father drama and this was made clear by the way she gave him the v sign and screamed something about smashing his car up if he came near her shop again.
He was one of those crazy steroid filled dudes with veins all over and was extremely emotional and given any longer i am sure he would have broke into song "oh mandy well you came and you gave without taking" because this played in the background, the westlife version not the barry manilow one and coincedently her name was also Mandy.
She didnt tie one of those black bib things around my neck to collect hair.
The shampoo smelt funny like burnt relaxer.
Every now and then she tugged a hidden dreadlock from my hair while pulling frightened faces which made her look like cheri blair.
Too much was taken off the ends.
I wish i asked the first question because no - she could not cut curly hair.
Note to self - Let friends mom do it like she has for the past ten years, change is not good.
