About seven years ago I started going to someone I really like and the only problem is that I am so attached to her I trail an hour and a half to Manchester because I can't face going through the pain of finding someone else.<BR/>Sad little poodle tale!Elizabeth Musgravehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09473705107636868753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1679999832936208492.post-46371573338184722532008-01-14T18:47:00.000+00:002008-01-14T18:47:00.000+00:00I actually enjoy going to the hairdressers.

I don't like my hair particularly but don't want to hate it. When my eldest daughter was modelling the things they would do to her hair just for a shoot were beyond belief - blue goo one time, hair extensions that we couldnt get out another, red dye that was supposed to wash out - yeah right! A friend, who is a hairdresser, does mine.Faith https://www.blogger.com/profile/04672728248961388984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1679999832936208492.post-62102347993468608652008-01-14T16:37:00.000+00:002008-01-14T16:37:00.000+00:00Oh heck, I sympathise totally.

I had a poodle perm when I was sixteen, right before my hot date with the boy I'd fancied for years (and who my foster-sister had successfully nabbed beforehand)....needless to say it was a first and last date.... <BR/>I have been through so many hairdressers, I have lost count. Never dared do the home visit type but have had some true horrors.<BR/><BR/>My present one is completely mad but in a good way - he's nearly sixty but very trendy and spot-on with the new hairstyles - so much so that he gave me a beehive a la Winehouse last visit! Tad scary. His salon is fabulous with huge ornate gilded mirrors and over the top chandeliers (and - totally amazing - he isn't gay).... I like it because we always have a laugh, there is usually a bottle of champagne open and he often runs out to get chocolate to keep everyone going. The whole salon ends up chatting or gossiping about whatever nad it's a hoot. Come to think of it, I'm going tomorrow - hurrah! <BR/>Sorry, that was a bit me me me.....Exmoorjanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09230395732150659356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1679999832936208492.post-76976189470697530722008-01-14T12:40:00.000+00:002008-01-14T12:40:00.000+00:00ahhh! Very funny last bit about the woof. So man...ahhh! Very funny last bit about the woof. So many of my friends seem to go to the hairdressers every MONTH. I'm twice yearly at best - it's the mirror, the pathetic assumption it's going to look good, the handing over of £30 - mind you, it shows, and terribly needs doing. You've reminded me to leave it another month though!Millahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15967731998504496807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1679999832936208492.post-51819594432163931832008-01-14T12:05:00.000+00:002008-01-14T12:05:00.000+00:00I hate going to hairdressing salons as well. All ...I hate going to hairdressing salons as well. All that inane chat about holidays etc and sitting having to look at one's reflection in the mirror. And a huge bill! <BR/><BR/>Now I am so lucky in that a friend up the road does my hair, she works part time in the best salon round here and she is an excellent cutter, colourer and stylist even though she trained as a 'mature' student. She has a flair. We just talk about local life, our families etc and she is a lovely person. She makes us tea or coffee and always gives us cake, M comes as well and there's a cosy sofa to sit on with a wee dog who cooches up next to you and the latest Sunday and local papers and Welsh mags. Her house has good vibes, a Welsh poet used to live there. So now I love going to have my hair done and always find it so relaxing.<BR/>Caitx<BR/>PS I have forwarded the free range chicken link to loads of people this morning.Cait O'Connorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04569760764766505179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1679999832936208492.post-5349004477677223422008-01-14T11:52:00.000+00:002008-01-14T11:52:00.000+00:00I know what you mean, It takes me ages to find a h...I know what you mean, It takes me ages to find a hairdresser I like, and when I do , they suddenly leave, and I 'm back into panic mode about who should do my hair.<BR/><BR/>I hubby hates hair dresser/barbers so much I have to do it, got quite good actually, and he makes me talk about holidays and what he's going to do at the weekend whilst I do it! <BR/>Love the cat photo, poor thing!Inthemudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12551873512058789152noreply@blogger.com
