Haircut

Finally got a haircut over this weekend. The last one back back in January before I left Hong Kong so it's been a good two months already. Normally it would be 3 months between each haircut but this time, it was quite necessary since I kind of changed my hair style so that the front part is an inch or so longer than the rest. Hence in the last two weeks, while I can still manage the side and back part, my hair in the front was giving me so much trouble each morning. lol

The salon was full on Saturday. A bit unexpected (since it was 315 already which is usually a slow time) as I have to wait. I think this was because a group of 4 or 5 college students just went in before me. I was told to come back around 4. Fortunately, the grocery store is just two doors down so I did some shopping. And of course I have my DS with me. heehee... However, I think I'll call ahead and make an appointment next time since I didn't get the stylist who normally does my hair. =P

Anyway, so Billy the stylist was busy and I ended up with another one. I don't remember if I've had this stylist before. Seeing him cutting my hair at first wasn't very comforting. He would make a cut in one section of my hair, pause for a bit (i think he wasn't too sure how to proceed???), and then start again from another part. It happened a couple times and it definitely made me nervous. Not much conversation until the end when he was drying my hair after the final wash. He sounded a bit surprised when I told him I am from HK (I was like, what the heck!?). Looks like the HK-aura from my December trip is fading - maybe I should plan a mid-year trip to refresh.

Fortunately, things turned out quite well. Not the best cut I've had but definitely above average. Good spent of my $30 ($26 cut + $4 tip). My next challenge is whether I can gel it back to what it supposed to look like tomorrow morning... Bwahahaha...
