Yesterday I had my hair cut for the first time in about 6 months. I was overdue. I've decided to let it grow out again, but needed a trim desperately. The appointment was for 2pm and the plan was to leave Delanah with G-pa and Aunt Dee. Well...little miss Delanah was such a clinger yesterday and started crying every time I was out of sight. She would have been fine within 10-15min of me leaving, but G-pa was not comfortable at all with watching her. Apparently her being more mobile has him running scared ;)
We arrive early, were given a smile and hello from the stylist and then left to wait until 20min past the appointment time! I saw how much time she was taking with the woman in front of me....but then it was dawdling afterwards that made me the most late. I think from start to finish it didn't even take 40min. The lady in front of me, given styling tips, cleaned and preened for quite some time. Me? I had hair fall into my mouth more than once during the cut and was left with more hair on my shirt front and back than I knew what to do with. To top things off, her prices have gone up and were astronomical! Guess I should have asked when I called. I got less done yesterday and paid a lot more than what I ever have before. Yes, it was a lot of money, but money I would have been okay with paying had I been treated better.
I think I was dumped by my hair dresser! If I wasn't, why would I have been treated so poorly? There was no one waiting after me, there was more than enough time to make sure I didn't go out of there with a hairy chest and back. I've been wanting to look for someone closer to me and it looks like that's what I'm going to do.
Okay, a confession...I've always been a bad tipper, not on purpose, but I am. Anyhoos, After we left I realized that I left her an 11% tip. Guess I stiffed her on the tip....I really don't feel bad about that though....
