August 04 2006 Dirty Hair-y
I desperately needed a new hairstyle and the reports of my
colleagues about '600 USD haircuts' did not make me really confident
where to go. After all, with my hair, no one can really do a lot
wrong or right. I decided in favor of the hairdresser in the
basement of our bank; close by taking into account the 4000
employees there, the guy has his good reputation at stake anyway,
doesn't he?
I got an appointment rather quickly, the hairdresser's shop is small
and unsanitary, the guy washed my head with one hand while he sipped
a strawberry shake with the other. Whilst he did the new hairstyle
using a rickety pair of scissors with only 10 cuts he told me the
history of the destiny of his 'third world' nation and I thought of
whom or what he has been shearing in his home country. Here in NY no
certificate of competence is really necessary, a big mouth is enough
and that's what he obviously had. While he was burning up my hair
and my scalp with his hairdryer he was complaining about the
terrible products I have been applying causing such atrocious hair,
I suspired too too and bohght a shampoo for 14 USD, paid in the
end a total amount of over 90 USD and learned another lesson over
here. Surprisingly the haircut is not bad at all, but as I have
already mentioned, there is no chance to do much wrong or right
with my hair.
P.S. here a little addendum
I carry the new hairdo to the harbor where another of those
evening skys expects me, one of these evening moods i would rate as
the most beautiful I've ever seen, the sky is rose, purple, vanilla
and blue, really gorgeous, that's why i was taking some more
pictures:
