the beauty salon


Do you close your eyes when you are at a salon getting your hair washed?

What are you supposed to look at as you sit in the chair, facing a mirror, having your bangs snipped?

Do you have to make small talk?

Does everyone feel guilty when they tell their hairdresser that yes, in fact, I do buy my shampoo at the grocery store, and no, I don't use products on my hair?

I always feel my worst when looking in a beauty salon mirror...I also sometimes put myself into a trance and then that's scary too. I feel like I'm not allowed to close my eyes while the hairwashing is happening, b/c I feel like that would suggest I was enjoying it and I don't feel like that's intended. hmmm.
