Hair, both beautiful and vile. When it’s attached to your head, it is prized and cared for. When it’s unattached from your head, it is gross and repellant. Think of how much time and money we spend on our hair, just to shed it or cut it off.
And although I’m not super girly, I do love getting my hair done. There’s just something therapeutic about chatting at the salon, enjoying someone else washing my hair, and the excitement of a new color and/or a cut.
This is yet another example of going someplace different from normal and enjoying good people. I love listening to the conversations in a salon. There’s something special about the conversations that occur between people who have an intimate relationship but only see each other every 10 weeks or so.
