A simple pleasure having your hair washed by another person.
The warm water miraculously not dripping down the side of your neck.
That special way they massage your scalp,
And it never feels the same when you try to do it to yourself.
As they trim or put on colour you fall into a comfortable discussion about your kids, or theirs.
Or some other local news item of interest.
Other customers join in,
Because we all know each other.
Despite realising that you must look hideous,
With 'goop' and aluminium foil on your head,
You are not concerned.
Especially as your neighbour looks just as ridiculous.
There is an air of camaraderie.
We are in this quest for beauty and style together.
And we put our trust in the hands of our stylists,
Who have our personal combination of hair colour on file.
