Ladies I think you can relate to me on this one.
Why is it that we spend a ridiculous amount of time fixing our hair before going to the beauty shop? I mean doesn't that defeat the whole purpose of us going in the first place?
We waste our time doing this because the minute we get there we are immediately shuffled to the damn wash basins.
The last time I went all the beautician did was gab about how she was out partying the night before. This had me a bit worried as she was about to style my fucking hair.
To top things off she cracked her gum the whole time.This is one of my biggest pet peeves.I dare not say a word or do anything to piss her off as she had the upper hand in this situation.She was holding the scissors just inches from my head.
There are some weird ass processes they have out there these days.I got my hair highlighed. In order to color your hair they have to wrap squares of aluminum foil around the strands of hair that are being colored.Not only did I look like a fool but I could have sworn I picked up signals from an alien spaceship.
Not to mention the fact that she placed me under a hot dryer.I not only looked like but I felt like a fucking baked potato.
I am not happy with the fact that I can never seem to fix my hair like they do either.I try and try but my results turn out nothing like the way they were able to style it.
I suppose that is why after spending many hours and big bucks to have my hair done I still tend to revert back to placing my sunglasses in my hair to pull it away from my face.
Quick fix!
50 Kissed My Ass:
There's a saying: never piss off your cook or your bartender. I would add "hairstylist" to that list.
I wrapped aluminum foil around my head on Saturday, but I was only able to pick up signals from as far away as Topeka. Perhaps your alien spaceship was in low earth orbit.
That reminds me. I need to go get my hair cut this afternoon. I think I'll go with the multi-colored look. Chicks love that I think.
LMAO about the hairstylist! I am SO in that boat. I always have been. Always a fucking day late and dollar short as far as being 'in'. Now that I'm mid 40's I'm wondering if I'm old enough now to cut it pretty short and 'mess it up' with gel...
I will if you will. ;P
WOOHOO!!!!!!! My second award! I need to put a special place on my sidebar for them now that I have TWO! Go me..it's my birthday...go me....
Thank PrePo...I freakin love you too and I haven't even known you that long. lol
You want to stay looking beautiful? You got to do the 'stupid' bit first :-p x
i also do the sunglasses on top of the head. and then, at the end of the day, i have a big dent in the top of my hair. it's super sexy!
i'm a real cheap ass when it comes to my hair...i will just go to the local 13 dollars haircut place. there are two ladies there who do hair well, but i always seem to get the one who never cuts your hair right. it's either too short, it's uneven, etc. she colored my hair, and it was ok, but i haven't let her touch my hair since. and i DEFINITELY don't let her touch my daughters' hair! i really think she should go back to beauty school or at least stop cutting hair...she fucks up people's hair too much. i'm surprised anyone lets her touch their hair still.
anywhoo-i'll take that award whether ya love my worthless ass or not lol thx
You love me! You really Love me!! LOL, Maybe I should get my hair cut... no I think I'm good for about another year.
Exception to the rule here...I show up at the beauty shop with bed rumpled hair, maybe brushed, but ready for a good shampoo...best part of the visit.
Reminds me need to consider a visit before month's end.
Gum crackin is punishable by multiple lashings... GRRRRR
yeash i do my hair before going in so they can see how i normally wear it, or it's problem areas, but i havent been to a salon in almost a year, scott cuts my hair now all the time!
i'm soo the same way, don'tr wanna piss them off, they have your hair (and ultimately your life) in their hands!
ohh you love me! i soo put that pic onb my blog and linked to you again!
Seems like some of gals are just having a bad hair week eh?
Girl if my hairstylist was cracking her gum, I think I would be tempted to smack her in the mouth...that was what my mom always did to us when we were kids....
Hey it worked.
What? No pics of the new 'do?
Love your new hair! ;)
Yeah, they do have hours of schooling and daily training fixing hair-do's so I guess that's why they do it so well, and we can't get it even close to what they did...
I'm with you, i don't style my hair, but I wash it before I go, and then they wash it again. I would be so embarrased to go with unwashed hair. hehehehe
All my hair stylists have been older ladies, but dam they keep up with the trends.
When I first told my current one how I wanted it, she was shocked and didn't want to cut it that way, but she did, and said she really likes it on me. She's probably lying.
I would shave mine if I could get away with it. heheheh I have it really really short and spikey. Looks good on me though. hehehehehe
And I do wuv you, you make me smile very dam day. hehehehehe
Once I went to a new barber. As he was cutting my hair, he started to tell me how his wife had left him for a friend of his. The more agitated he got, the faster he cut my hair! When done, and showed me my haircut in the big mirror, I didn't actually scream- but I did let out a small noise of shocked despair... Hair grew back- eventually...
yay, more awards! I'm so shallow.
wow pp, I can't even say I can relate to this. I go into the salan lookin so tore up even my beautician is like "damn, its going to be a long day"
One of the generation gaps between my son and me is how we get our hair cut. He will not go another place except a fancy style salon with all the things going on like you described. Sometimes I wonder if the people working there have to have Phd's to cut hair with all the funny chemicals and weird gadgets being used. Costs like hell but all his friends go there as well. I go to a old fellow who is WW2 vet and takes forever but the guy tell great stories.
Wolf-That is possible,but I doubt it.
Jay-The babes won't be able to keep their hands off of you!
Lori-DITTO!!!!
Kitty-I need a lot of help!
Mimzie-LOL I know what you mean.
Ciara-Yes I sure do!
Ron-You have hair?
Mama-It's good to be different!
Diva-Yes ma'am it sure is!
Jolean-You are lucky he does a good job!
Malicious-As always!
Doggy-I was so tempted to.
Bugs Butt-None yet.Sorry!
R.E.H.-LOL thanks!
Burfica-Love you too darling!
Buffalo-Oooooh shit!
Malach-Go Malach!
Ms. Puddin-I pity your stylist! :oP
Bum-I use to take my sons to a barber like that.He was cool!
Yea, just when you think you kind of understand women.... another curveball!
Yea, no logic :P
I haven't read the rest of the comments, so I don't know if anyone else said this, but it's like when the cleaning lady comes in. I used to have her come in once a week, and I would make sure everything was clean before she got there, so as not to be embarrassed for having a dirty place. I mean, I still didn't clean it like she did, but I had to have it neater than it was during the week before she got there. It's pretty much the same idea.
When it comes to my hair, I'm pretty easy, but people manage to fuck it up anyway... I keep short little Betty Bangs, and they have a curve in them. There's only one woman I go to, that actually knows what the hell they are and how to cut them at the right slant. I don't fix my hair before I go, though. I just make sure it's clean.
I have not had my hair cut by a beautician in 9 years! The always f**k it up! I trim it myself. IT is waist length so no biggie.
I don't trust no ditzy coked up chic with scissors around my goldilocks! :o)~
That reminds me of when Mom used to make us clean our rooms before the maid came.
beautician? how can you improve upon perfection?
An old punk girlfriend had red hair on Monday, Yellow on Thursday and Green by the following Monday.
It was like sleeping with a traffic light.
All I can say is that that's clearly the hair of a Democratic voter.
I only get a trim. I hate dealing with my hair. We (my hair & I) have an agreement that she remains shiny & long & I don't put chemicals in her.
It's worked out so far.
I think a perm to put some curls or waves in hair is nice, but that fancy doo's are overboard.
Good color jobs can add a nice touch, if they don't mess them up. I think you need another hair dresser.
It would drive me nuts to listen to one popping her gum.
Good lord, woman. You still call it "the beauty shop"?
As for foils, um, they have been out for an eternity. You should be getting highlights and lowlights. Seriously.
If your hairdresser is smacking gum, it's time to go to one of the more "expensive" salons. Also, the way I end up doing my hair, or how I learn how they do it, is, I watch them, I tell them I am watching them, and then they tell me what they are doing the whole way through. AND don't blow dry your hair on hot and on the max settings. Get yourself one of those hairdryers that has the little funnel type thing, blowdry on high heat and medium air, get yourself a round brush, the kind you can roll your hair on, and keep moving that dryer. The more you do that, the less you will ever have to use a curling iron.
Oh, and put product on your hair. If you cover the hair in product, the heat will dry your hair on top of the actual hair, and you will sustain a lot less damage to both your hair and your hair color.
And don't use shitty shampoos. You spent all that money on your hair; don't use a waxy conditioner (like what you buy at the grocery store). Spring for the good stuff; it's going to last longer, adn you don't need to use as much. It's not going to lather like what you are used to, but you will get used to it.
That photo...now that's a sure sign of spring!
Mike-You'll never understand women!
Curious-Betty Bangs rule! I look horrible in them though.
Titania-I use to cut my own but it looked terrible!
Creepy-LOL, I have done that too.
Knudsen-There is no perfection in this direction. Hey that rhymed!
Four-Did the carpet match the drapes?
Dubya-Whatever!
C.Rag-My hair looks ugly natural.
BBC-Maybe I'll stop by next time and have you do my hair.
Absurdist-Yes I call it the beauty shop...I'm old!
Ve-It sure is!
aww, i give you that award right back, my friend! i think you are just awesome, girl!!!
Hey....I'll have you know my ass isn't worthless... it would get AT LEAST a few kroners in the Scandinavian world.... now MissM's ass... that girl would get some SERIOUS money in any nation for her delicious booty! I took a few photos of her rump shakin.. which oddly enough, didn't make it onto her slideshow..ha..ha... go figure! ;)
I am also guilty of the "sunglasses to hold back my hair" trick - for some reason, no head band, clip or anything else does the job quite as well as the sunnies :)
i accept! and believe it or not- i have something too... come’n getit!
"...fucking baked potato."
Been there. Done that.
I'm still trying to get the bacon bits and sour cream out of the crack of my ass.
This is why I let my hair grow long. I HATE going to the salon. It's a mild form of torture as far as I am concerned. You're a better person than I if you didn't complain about the gum cracking. I would have had to leave the place if she didn't stop it.
I don't do my hair before going to my salon unless I happen to work that day, then I have no choice.
But if I go on the weekend, or when I have a day off, my stylist better hope I even comb my hair. That's what she's paid to do, and I let her! LOL! ;*)
Malach has give out his first ever blog awards, and you have won one, congrats!
That's like women who clean their homes before the maids come. Women are nuts, period!
Ok, Beautiful... where the hell are you???
Hmmm... i'm kinda on the Bruce Willis hair plan, so what you speak here is foreign to me... but i've seen pics of my wife in the foil thing and all i can think about is the movie signs when they were wearing foil on their heads to block the alien signals.
Hey! PP!
I've got an award for you over at my blog... come check it out!
I gotta say ... I never fix my hair before going to the beauty shop... I guess I'm really lazy!
oops...i hit the post button too fast. Congrats on the award! :)
I love your red pigtails. Mine are blue, but I may go for red next time.
I can't offer anything mature to say about Hairstyling anymore because of Cameron's 'smoosh of product' in There's Something About Mary.
Was that an 'Up-Doo' or what?
Katie-Love ya girlfriend!
Piddy-Mine would not be pretty on any slideshow whatsoever!
Missus-Sunglasses rule!
Angel-Cool Beans!!!
Mental Poo-Ewwwwww! ha ha ha ha
Patricia-I so wanted to rip her lips off!
Hunter-You have a point there!
Malach-Way cool!
Slick-Take that back boy!
Diva-Got lost in snow....
Billy-LOL
R.E.H.-Woohoo!
Drowsey-He he thanks!
Colonel-Go for it!
Donn-Yuck!!!!!
Oh Hon, that wasn't an alien spaceship you were picking up, that was me! I got mine done too...our foils musta been humming loud to pick each other up like that! LOL
I always have to go home and "fix" my hair after they style it for me..they always make me look like I got caught in a convertible on a windy day going 90 mphs with a can of aquanet super hold aimed at my head...
