Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Congrats!

Thrive to spite them

I hate getting my hair cut. I can't afford to go to someone good so I get stuck at great clips. They messed up my hair 6 months or so ago...since I wear my hair to one side she just cut it like that and didn't make sure it was even . And there were long scraggly bits. I got it fixed but the manager told me that the problem was the way I wear my hair. She cut it wrong because it was over to the side. I did not like being blamed for the stylists mistake. I switched to going to Wal mart where it was marginally better and at least no one asked me a million times I'd I really wanted the #2 setting of the clippers.

This is what I tell them:buzzed on the back and sides with #2, trim to take of the dead ends and texture/layers on top. It's not hard.

I went to great clips today and made the mistake of saying why I stopped going. Today's stylist said "I probably would have done the same thing with the way you wear your hair it can be hard to tell". She had my hair all clipped up and she had buzzed the back of my head. I got mad. I told her I was done being blamed for their mistake. I over reacted and ended up leaving. She got mad at me when I told her I didn't want to be blamed for the mistake.

Saying "the way you wear your hair is why the stylist couldn't cut it right " is blaming me. It's a damn undercut hair cut.

I shouldn't have brought it up. Or when I did I should have just ground my teeth and let her say she would have made the same mistake and how understandable it was that the mistake was made.

Like I want to get my hair cut from someone who just told me there is a good chance they would mess up my hair

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Saying "the way you wear your hair is why the stylist couldn't cut it right" is utter bullshirt. The way you wear your hair is their JOB. My mother was a hairstylist and I can hear her getting up out of her grave right now to go give Great Clips a good talking-to. Usually when she's mad she just appears in spirit but this deserves the full zombie.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I think zombie mom could do a better job cutting skye's hair.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Also, would make a hell of a haircut story.

I would love to have my haircut by your Zombie Mom Zen.

I really hate getting my hair cut and at this point I would rather have a root canal. Just because it happens so infrequently and I am numb for it.

I realized many salons are sensory hell. They are bright, loud and lots of conversations going at once. Plus the way I get my hair cut is the only style I've seen and liked that I've been able to do with my hair.

There is a salon in town that doesn't charge much more than great clips I'm going to go talk them and explain my issues and see if they have a time that is less busy and if they can work with me.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

askye, do you have a beauty college nearby? The past couple of times I've gone to one really close to my house and paid $11 for a haircut. Nothing complicated, and the second time it took like 2 hours, which is nuts, but it was still $11.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Come over to my house, askye. You can sit on the back porch and have a glass of wine while I cut your hair exactly as you prefer.

I would love that David. I just a teleporter to get there from SC. I'd bring parsley for the piggies.

There is other stuff frustrating me and I just feel I've only had time to go tower and home and then do errands or chores on my days off. I requested a Sat off so we could go do something and it's raining. But Matthew took me to lunch in downtown Greenville and I also asked for Nov 2 off and the minor league hockey team here has a home game that night so I'm going to get some cheap tickets and have a date night
