I really do think finding a new stylist is harder than choosing a new OB-gyn.
And leaving one is pretty traumatic too.
Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I've had stylist break-ups which were harder than boyfriend break-ups, definitely.

sj, FOAMINESS! Although you're a lot more patient than I am waiting around for the stylist--FWIW, it was worth the wait.
Thanks. I'm not that patient of a person, but my hair really was looking that bad. Besides, I needed a lift this week. I am still pissed that she didn't take responsibility for missing the appointment time. She tried to blame my mother (who made the appointment) instead and never apologized. I didn't say anything because I really wanted my hair done.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Yay for vw's mom!
sj, did you at least get a discount for the trouble?
Breakups with stylists are infinitely worse than ones with SOs. Hey, it took me ten years to find my hair guru, and only six years to find a husband.

Teppy, the lunchmeat thief should be consigned to the special level of hell....you know, the one where he or she is surrounded by Limburger cheese, moldy bread, and deli meat 2 years past its expiration date.

Because books.
Special Hell is smelly.

Nope. I think I am going to switch to a new stylist after the move. The only problem is my current hairdresser is so very cheap compared to most salon prices. Still, with the price of gas, it will probably be cheaper for me to just stay in Worcester.

Yep. It's what you get for violating the 11th Commandment, "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's thinly sliced deli turkey."
sj, it's probably a wise decision. Once there is tension, it's never the same again.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Huh. I've never really had a stylist.
I mean, I keep thinking I should get one, but they're pretty expensive, so I just keep going for barber shop trims.
