I was at work when I heard someone say “Hey, excuse me miss…” I turned around and saw a guy in his thirties. I thought he needed help finding something.
“I just wanted to introduce myself. My name’s David; I work at Life Hair Studio just a little ways down from you guys here. Here’s my card…I can do a nice blow dry for you, anything you need- just come by and ask for me.” And he walked off.
I didn’t see him give his card to anyone else!!!
He just left me there standing alone, contemplating the state of my hair. I know I was having a dirty hippy kind of hair day but I see hipsters pull it off all the time. I had it half up it up in a messy bun with the rest of it down. It does get awkward though when I run into a guy with the same hairstyle, not gonna lie. Man-buns are everywhere now. I wonder if they feel as weird about it as I do.
I kind of like my hair looking sort of unruly though. When I was in high school I would have killed to have shiny straight hair like all the preppy girls. Those damn Uki girls and their beautiful blonde hair. They’ve haunted me my whole life. First in elementary school, then in high school. Things got better in university when I invested in a straightener. And now these days, I’ve kind of embraced having long straggly hair. It suits me better. It kind of makes me feel like a wild animal. Which is pretty fun.
