As you sit there with a rubbererised toilet bowl drip mat draped round your shoulders, your now ready for the exorbitant hack job.

While struggling desperately to recall whether you did anthing "nice at the weekend, you watch mute and helpless as your treasured locks fall away.

A thing called "product" is smeared over your scalp.

You're begining to resemble the love child of Ken Dodd and Yoda from Star Wars.

Chocking back the tears at your butchered reflections, you're finally asked what do you think .

"Very nice, thank you".

You even leave a top !!!

there's a thing called consultation as to what kind of style is required and how often you like visiting hairdressers and also its always best to take some style ideas pictures so the stylist can see where you coming from informing the client before the snip just to make sure you are happy with what is about to be cut and price wise too good to know the cost before the shock

If you read the last line of Msg 1 you'll see a typing error, 'top' instead of 'tip' hence Msg 2 witty retort!

You should always say if you don't like it. A good salon will not question you and will attempt to rectify it.

Well, I can certainly sympathise with Happy Feet on this one - I'd like a pound for every time I've said it over the years.



Happy Feet - you forgot to mention the "Mantra" that goes round and round your poor head:



"It'll be OK when I've done it myself"

The last girl that cut my hair (my hairdresser was on holiday) must use the same tape measure as yours

Ha, ha, and not forgetting the re-style when you get home, how much I hate that 'just out of the hairdressers' look.

Where on earth are you all going to get your hair done? Go to Neil Anthony and you will get your hair done as you ask him, and cut no more and no less than you ask for.

I cried all the way home from the hairdressers in France. I tried to stop her but she wanted me to look like all the farmer`s wives. The icing on the cake was when my beloved said "Cor, you look just like a bloke" !!!!!!
