that’s why you need a hairstylist who is ALSO a blogger, like moi!
it’s like a two-fer.
She’s a bitch. Because 1/2 of her job is socializing. Or maybe she was having an off day. Either way, she should have talked because you’re Ben and you’re awesome! If I had any skills I’d offer my hair cutting services the next time around.
That’s awesome about bloggers. If they find it interesting, they’ll comment. Therefore, you feel listened.
If they find it boring, they won’t. But you have llike a zillion more bloggers who did fing it entertaining.
Your hairdresser was just dead wrong. You’re amazing and hilarious. And so are we. Well, maybe not me, but everyone else here.
I, for one, think that your hairdresser was simply mesmerized by your hair, which is no doubt amazing as well.
totally bringing the funny!!!!! ahahahahahahahah hilarious!
I’m surprised that she gave you nothing. Usually stylists don’t stop talking. Maybe it was just a bad day.
But, how did your hair turn out? Was it worth a return visit?
haha, this reminds me of the episode of Friends where Joey and Chandler get free p*rn channel and they watched it so much that they expected real life to be just like that too.
okay, so not so similar but kinda. you get what I mean right? LOL.
This was one of the most fabulous posts ever.
Because you’re so right. We’re told we’re fascinating, but then the real world tells us otherwise.
BOO on reality, is what I say.
See this is one of the reasons why I stopped going to hairdressers ten years ago. They either ask inane questions or none at all – neither suits me! (Especially when I know that deep down they are just laughing at the state of my hair!)
my stylist is an Armenian soccer fan – so we talk sports. probably not your cup of tea, but he’s good at the witty banter. oh, and he’s single, but I think he likes girls. sorry…
i hate when stylists aren’t chatty back when i want them to be chatty. though, i also dont like when they’re overly chatty when i just need some zen moments.
how short is the HOH now?!
Ha, this is the first post of yours that I’ve read and I couldn’t agree more. Sometimes I find myself wondering why people in my 3D life aren’t as articulate and open and hilarious as they should be. And then I realize that, oh yeah, they don’t put their lives and feelings on the internet every day. Sigh.
I don’t think it’s a lot to ask of a hairdresser to create a comfy environment by creating convo. She obviously had a pair of shears up her ass.
Obviously she didn’t know that you are Ben from No Ordinary Roller Coaster.
That sort of ignorance needs to be dealt with.
actually, i think it would be heaven to find a hairdresser that kept their trap shut….this is why i do my own hair…well that and i’m cheap.
20% is great, bnut i’ll take the standard 15% since i’m a newish commenter, but have been following your blog for quite sometime.
Oh we really are that brilliant, there’s no doubt in my mind.
lol Aw, that’s so true. I’ve started structuring stories that I tell the way I structure my blog posts…
At least the internet loves us!
It wasn’t you, it was her.
Can I PLEASE be a Harajuku girl?!? Or, like, the Halifax version.
You can send my tips to my paypal account
Well, if she can’t appreciate you, darlin’, it’s her loss.
We know what we’ve got!
I dare anyone IRL to suggest that my life is not worth epic trilogies. They just don’t *see* what we *see*, do they? Cause we rock.
I don’t know how much longer I can continue to adore you if you’re going to whore around the blogosphere like you have been lately. I’m very possessive.
Haha, I wonder if she has a blog and went home and wrote, “Man, I had this client today who would NOT shut up . . .”
Listen, I get it. Not a lot of people can live up to me. I apologize. I know it’s rough.
Mate you are really well written. Good work.
As for the hair dresses, why is it always such a task. I always picture them in training learning the “Ten things to ask every person you trim”. Grrr
I know, it’s happened to me too. Why can’t all the people I meet be as cool as my blogger friends? Oh well, at least all my bad/crazy/weird dates give me something to write about!
you can tip me anytime baby.
I hate going to get a hair cut and making awkward conversation! Well I’m kind of awkward and then they are awkward trying to avoid the awkwardness.
Ugh it’s crazy.
Bloggers are indeed a sensationally interesting bunch. And even when they’re not interesting, they have a way of MAKING things interesting.
You’re right. We’ve spoiled your innocence. Hmmm. Don’t let that stop you!
