I always get the old prunes!
I hate First Choice [Hair-cutters]. I’ve hated them before and swore I wouldn’t go back to them, but I went back. Now I have renewed my vow of never going back.
I opted to go there in the first place for two reasons. 1: I was too lazy to find a spa-type place to get a real haircut. 2: The money thing. I have plenty of it for a university kid, I just don’t think spending $50 for a haircut is a good way for it to disappear.
At the horrible place, which was conveniently located in the back of a Zeller’s I was in, I put my name down and waited. There were young hair-cutters there, so I was relieved. I would finally go to a First Choice and get someone who actually knew what there were doing. Did I? Of couuuursee not. I got the old grumpy lady. The old prune.
I asked her for layers with the longest one being about 2 inches shorter than my hair was pre-cut. How much did she take off? About 4. I didn’t mind too much about that bit. I also asked for the side pieces around my face to be stair-case style. She cut those way too short as well. It looks stupid.
She finishes chopping and asks if I want it dried. It looks god-AWFUL at this point in time because my hair has already started drying. My hair is naturally curl-wavy so it looks so stupid half dry. So I say yes.
She proceeds to dump way more than the suggest dime-sized amount of frizz-taming serum on the top of my head. A big no-no! You do not put a dollop of anything on the top of the head at the roots! She didn’t even rub it in or anything, and didn’t even dry that spot.
I left with semi-dry hair and a really greasy top-of-my-head. It looked disgusting to say the least. As soon as I got into my car to go home, I put it up so I could cover the outrageous greasyness. It’s like I was Snape’s cousin with red hair it was so bad.
I hate First Choice. Next time, I’m spending the money and time just to get a decent hair cut. Hopefully I can do something with the appalling thing I have now.
In lighter news, I posted the first chapter of my HPDM fic called “Admit One” on ff.net. I’ve already received 8 reviews and there were about 20 emails in my box today with people faving and adding it to their “alert list”! Who knew that my first little fic would be this well received. I thought that it wouldn’t get read at all, and I just put it up there for my own pleasure. :B
