HAIR AND HOW TO DO IT

HAIR AND HOW TO DO IT
Thanks to J who provided us with scissors, I manage to cut John’s hair. I can’t cut my own however. S at Looks & Locks said I would have trouble getting a good haircut in Europe. I did not believe her and hoped to prove her wrong but when I reached Poland, I realised that an English speaking hairdresser might be hard to find. I started noticing how other women my age do their hair. In Poland as a general rule, it seems that women dye their hair rather than style it. Probably at home as it is cheaper. I quite fancy purple or orange hair but I still needed a cut and where were the hair salons?
In Lithuania hair salons specialise in bleaching hair not cutting it. By now I needed a haircut badly – what to do?
In Latvia we stayed on a car-park type of campsite but next door to a smart hotel. I remembered Zambia and the Intercontinental! Smart hotels have hairdressers and salon managers who speak English. An hotel would be expensive but Latvian expensive is affordable so I booked and all went well. My stylist was good and careful and had the most beautiful complexion and skin but it was a long hour without any conversation. I had my lashes and eyebrows done too and arrived back at camp with smart hair and rather dark Latvian eyebrows so I looked just like you B!
Once again though, my hair needs cutting!
