I was thinking (imagine THAT!) at work about some of the things we as hairstylists face in an average day. I thought that after 20+ years of making people look good, (and refraining from strangling some of them) I would start a blog that I could add to as things happen, or as I remember stuff. Things to make you laugh, or cry... and things I have wanted to say but would have gotten fired if I had. *blink* You must remember that I am a "problem solver" and tend to attract anyone who is a tad different (aka: crazy as hell) so some of these stories will seem made up.. but I have witnesses. *wink*
To break things down, I will call the client CL and myself MB (of course)...*fluttering eyelashes*
One of my most recent memories is of a young lady who sat in my chair and said:
CL: MB, now-- I wants to keep my lenththasis.
MB: *blink* Length. You want to keep your length.
CL: *looks at me confused* That's what I said..
MB: No, you said lenththasis... length is plural.. well its assumed plural regardless...
CL: *looks at me really confused* what?
MB: Never mind..
I have to give Angela Lonier 5 stars/snaps for this one. Apparently she had a difficult client today... I swiped this from her Facebook page...
Yall just dont know what your stylist has been though that day when you sit in their chair! <3 MB
Stay tuned as I add things over time... =)
I <3 u MB and I can't wait to see what you'll say next! ~ HH (your future daughter in law's mom) :)
