The helpful world of hairdressing

A woman with short hair road tests a new hairdresser. Her favourite hairdresser has disappeared from the salon and queries as to his whereabouts provoke awkward and mumbled responses. He clearly did not leave on good terms.

The woman decides to be generous and give the new, young, short haired slightly bored looking hairdresser now standing behind her a chance.

'One thing I sometimes find, with short hair, is that's hard to know what to do for events. How to make it look special for weddings, dinners, that kind of thing.'

'Yeah, I know,' replies the young hairdresser with genuine concern and a glance at her own short hair.

And that is it.

The end of the helpful consultation.

The woman wishes she had thought to get the mobile phone number of her favourite hairdresser BEFORE he disappeared in such mysterious, mumbled and awkward circumstances.
