hair blues

"Leading hair salon(s)" do not necessarily provide the best hairdressing services. Take one of those outlets that i visited for example. My hairstylist looked like a bonjovi gone wrong! Alright thats not the point. He seemed to have some problems communicating with customers.

Him: Do you want *mumble* or *mumble*?
Me: sorry?
Him: (same volume) Do you want *mumble* or *mumble*?
Me: (mystified look)
Him: (continues to shuffle my hair and avoiding eye contact)
Me: huh?
Him: *mumble*
Me: err..either one is fine.

goodness! this is a perfect example of dui4 niu2 tan2 qing2. another thing is, much of his attention was devoted to flirting - openly - with a fellow female hairstylist who washed my hair.

Him: (grins at her reflection in the mirror) so how?
Her: (grins back at his reflection while tugging at my hair) i dont know.
Him: so is your sister coming to work here?
Her: i really dont know la..

And the conversation goes on. The woman must be getting excited or something to the extent of scrubbing my head so hard that i was sure my scalp was gona come off. *growl*

The outcome was surprisingly acceptable, except that i think my fringe was screwed up by the guy, which prompted me to question him, "urm is my fringe supposed to be kept like that?" He offered some explanation that there was something wrong with my parting so he had made some changes yada yada. I was so tempted to remark that his own hairdo isnt any more impressive, but shrugged it off.

Okay maybe im being mean, but it's gona be the first and the last time cos i aint going there ever again.
