Well, I finally did it. Took, long enough...hehe!
I have to say I was a little nervous at first. The place I went to is really large inside and lots of women doing hair. It was smokey too, from all the blow drying. That had me a little concerned and I was ready to walk out, but decided that since I was there, let me just try it...at least once.
The owner was very sweet to me and knew her stuff. She talked with all the patrons while getting their hair done and she spoke to the stylists as well while they were doing the heads. I liked that interaction with everyone. She didn't just sit in her office and collect the money, she was right up in there with everyone and it was refreshing to see that.
They took me pretty much right away. They washed my hair and gave me a deep condition. The girl kept saying to me.."oh, mommy....your hair is so beautiful and so soft...I love your hair, mommy." I kept cracking up inside...she was too sweet!
After coming out from under the dryer and rinsed, the girl put a leave in in my hair and combed my hair gently. I was pleased at that
When she began to blowdry, I was intently watching her. She kept saying...."don't worry, mommy....I'm going to make your hair fabulous." I smile and didn't say anything, just wanted her to hurry up.
I have never felt such heat on my head before. I did pull away a couple of times because it got a little to hot. But, I endured to the end. She then said..."oh, mommy....I have to give you a cut because you need it, ok mommy?" I said, "well, how much are we talking about?" She said 1 inch only so I said "ok, just an inch ok?" She said "ok, mommy". (I'm getting a kick out of saying mommy....
)
She did cut only an inch and my hair was fierce. She gave me the mirror and I looked at the back and was very, very pleased. She told me to never, ever get a relaxer...."you don't need one mommy, your hair is beautiful!" She got my hair straighter than a relaxer and I couldn't believe it. I thanked her and gave her a nice tip. She was happy, and so was I. My hair has grown so much and I am pleasantly surprised!
I got many compliments that night when I went to a conference. My hair flowed and was bouncing all over the place! And here it is Monday morning and I have gotten compliments from so many people here at the office about how nice it looks.
Anyways, here are some pics from the day after. I even used my Flexi-8 hair clip (which I love) in two of the pics:
BTW: I wish I had my camera to take pics right after she did my hair. It looked so beautiful!
