Honey’s Cuts!!!

I went to this new barber (he calls himself a Senior hair stylist) earlier today, and all I had on my head is a shock full of hair waiting to be cut short and neat. I give him my instructions and to my dismay, he comes back to me with a zillion other questions – should I cut from the sides, would you like to keep whiskers, would you like your back line (whatever) shaped in a square or U, when you want the hair to grow back, they may change style and was that ok…

I had answers for some of the simpler questions, but they just kept getting tougher and tougher..i mean who ever had an answer for do I want my whiskers jagged or in an incline (I wondered if he was pulling my leg, seeing my ignorance). I was also in two minds to ask him if he could only cut off the grey hair on my head and not the black ones, but I decided against it.

Anyway, in all this frenzy of questions, I forgot to notice that the hair stylist was wearing pink pants under his white coat and had floral painted finger nails...I felt a cold chill go through my spine. I mean…is it legal to allow these kind of guys (or whatever genre they fit into) to roam around free ...and that too in a men’s hair salon!!!

To get the nervousness out of my system, I decided to engage in some small talk with the individual in discussion. I looked up at his name tag and it read ‘HANY”. So I said, “Hi Hany, nice weather over the weekend, isn’t it’ . She/ He smiled and replied “Oh, I cant get why you guys have to pronounce my name like that, My Name’s pronounced Honey…honey, you know the syrupy, gooey sweet thing..not Hany”

I fainted….
