snip snap!!!


I used to think n read about bad hair days and mistakes while being the centre of slaughter with dozens of scissors and poking eyes staring hard to get to your brain while confusing your momentum altogether….but it happening to me was what I had not thought in any outlandish instant… I went to the parlor the other day for a trim, unlike my first visit to her where I got caught in a whirlwind of indecision, this time I was completely sure of what I wanted...a trim with a tiiiiny bit more of an angle (and I said tiny). And just styling because I was beginning to love my long Hair so parting with them seemed stupid…that’s all!!!...but she seemed pretty excited about the whole thing and asked me what exactly did I have in mind... It's always hard to know what to say in these instances, I find. I know I may give off the impression sometimes of a hardened comedic veteran of wit and timing, but believe me, in the flesh and in the company of strangers I lose a lot of verbosity. Fortunately I had planned for this. "I want to keep the length and rest u know what," I recited...Oh boy!!!She sure didn’t know what and I still curse myself for this confession…
I settled myself into that comfy chair and totally confident about the lady in charge I started going thru the pages of a glam magazine they handed over to me. she started playing around with my tresses and I was much more engrossed in what went wrong between shahid and kareena..why kid rock was arrested and blah blah!by the time I looked above I was in a state of dismal and woe…I My frontal bangs were hacked off in the middle of my forehead making me look like those extremely creepy porcelain china dolls. My hair was also incredibly short and there were absolutely no redeeming qualities of the haircut. I was ZAPPED!!!! If you haven't figured from the tone that I had a bad haircut experience, I'm saying it literally. I look like I've been stalked and mutilated by a rogue grass cutter.
I have spent time putting my hair up in ponytails and pushing my bangs back, trying to make them disappear. If it were winter I'd just put a hat on, but it's not (well the weather suggests it might soon be) and my hats are all designed to keep the cold out. I keep willing myself not to think about it, hoping the feeling will pass, but it's been three days already...
So I thought how I can categories it into no entry zone...


Sign 1: The price is cheaper than the average... NEVER save on haircuts especially if you're in a new place.

Sign 2: Your hair stylist chops hair instead of snipping them. I define Chopping as the crude execution of a direct cut on hair and snipping as the artful execution of skilful and small cuts on the hair. I was gasping as she enthusiastically chopped in pure jubilee...

Sign3: Our hair stylist uses the shaver more often than the scissors. There's nothing more to say about this... I'm not a marine or a monk... she shouldn't have to guess on that.

Sign 4:the attendants keep taking to you so that you don’t have to think about the mishap that’s going to occur while dresser making all possible equipments of destruction geared up for the warfare

Sign 5: There's nobody in the salon...

Sign 6: The hair stylist doesn't have a cool looking hairstyle.

Sign 7 :She told me she had 10years of experience... :'( Well, she did give me the most stylish hairstyle actually. Only I am 20 years late...

Sign 8: And the most imp one…she kids you…imagine after having that ridiculous chop she and all her attendants yell around in glory that I look like Ashley Simpson now…ah watt????....and l feel like murdering for a good because so several victims like me could be saved



That you know these signs, thou must be kind and spread it to others. And if you already know these, shame on me for not exercising better common sense; but at least I’m trying to warn others about it. :

Ps: In all, it wasn't that bad... I don't look like a poodle, just like a toilet brush. I must say that I did get my money's worth in terms of amount of hair cut per rupee paid…

Im still coping….
