My most expensive haircut. Ever.

- We've just opened a new branch of our S* Salon. Its over by North Ave. Why don't you stop by sometime, we've got 50% off on all hair services.
- Sounds good S*, thanks!

- B, I need to get a haircut. You know, so I look sexy and all, in the Jamaica pictures.
- Won't it be better if you wait until the week before we leave?
- No, I feel like it today.. hey, why don't I also try to color my hair while we're at it?!
- Sure, whatever makes you happy :)

- I'd like some partial highlights please, with a haircut.

- Oooh, this 'Cinnamon/Burgundy' looks good..
- Nah, not so much. How about this 'Nutmeg'
- Oh yes, that will look good on you.. We'll take it down with a bleach, and then add the toner.

- You know what, I'm doing more than partial highlights so it looks better on you.

- Ah *gulp* (Post-bleach-wash)
- It'll look better with the toner, you just wait.

- Ah *gulp* *gulp* (Post-toner-wash)
- It'll look good with a haircut done.

- Thanks so much, LOVE it. (Out the salon, 80$ and three hours later)

- *Wail*. I hate it. I look like a tramp.
- You're just not used to it, it doesn't look bad
- But it doesn't look good either does it?
- Why are you always so dis-satisfied with such experiments you do? Let me be brutally honest. Its not great, but its not bad either. Lets look at it in the morning and see.
- Serves me right, 50% off, and off I go like an idiot.

- Holy Crap, I HATE it this morning, more than I did yday night.
- Yea, I hate it too. Don't worry, we can set it right.

- In fact, I look lilke Kovai Sarala, remember when she turned her hair an awful color?
- Hmm.. now that you mention it.. Yea!
- *Wail*

- I'm nervous now. I read all these articles online, and they paint the worst possible picture.
- Come on, I read some too, you'll be fine.

- Hi, I have a hair-color-disaster-emergency. DO you guys have an appointment for this evening?
- 6.45pm (Gordon)
- 7.00pm (Michael Anthony)
- 4.00pm (Sine Qua Non)

- 4.00pm sounds lovely.

- Please help me Bridgett.
- Oh, poor you. Its turned all Orange-y. Its easy to fix. We'll get an even black all over for you.

- I've never been happier to see my natural black hair! (Post-wash)

- Ooh, I look sexy! (Post-blowdry)

- Thank You SO much. (Out the salon, 100$ and one hour later)

- You look lovely.
- I've NEVER been happier.
- That turned out to be the single most expensive haircut you've had.
- I was just thinking that. *Sigh*
- Hey, atleast, now you know. Consider it an experiment gone wrong :)
- I could've conceivably fed some orphans instead. Shame.
