Haircut Diary

-EC House comb-

every haircut has become an interesting experience. no, it's not tt i get to see cats playing masak-masak with dogs nor do i get to see crabs walking ard in e parlour. it's juz tt i've been getting nice hairdressers. i always end up having to open my mouth n letting words come out while having my hair cut. it's kinda interesting, cos i nv hear other customers chitchatting with their hairdressers yet.

mabe it's bcoz of e blur face tt i bring in with me into e parlour. y blur? cos i nv noe wad to tell e hairdresser when posed with e world's hardest million-dollar question:

"so how u wan ur hair cut?"

"EH... ... ... ..."

so v often, i end up saying "how do u tink u will cut it?". haha. prob tis is a gd conversational starter. for today... (everything translated. cos conversation occurred in Mandarin. 华语cool.)

"urm, cut short lor."
"how short u wan."
"EH... ..." (yes, again.)
"normal slope high slope?"
"normal."

n den she started cutting. n den e next bout of conversation started when she asked,

"e fringe ok not?"
"can shorter a bit?"
"now leh?"
"EH... ..." (yes, again.) "can lah."

n den she started giggling. -_-'''
"oei, if not ok u can juz say not ok. u dun sit down there shy shy. nvm one, not ok juz say."
"har? i shy meh?"
"yah u look like u v shy."
"har no lah. it's juz tt i usu duno how i wan my hair to b like, so i usu come in n juz let whoever cut it however they tink my hair shld end up like. so u juz cut e way u tink u wan lor."
"hahahaha. cut all lah."
"har? no lah."
"u say cut anyhow i wan wad. cut all lor." (wide grin on e victorious face)
"eh no la. i cut b4, not nice."
