14. Hairdressers (III), Bristol. Saturday morning

Female Client, long blond hair, scrutinising a hair-styling magazine (40):  Mmm – let me see… yes, I think I’d like that style please.  But without the flowers in it, mind.

Stylist, female (35):  (puzzled tone) Uh, right….

Blond Client:  …and the colour… well, I’d say like Gordon Ramsay’s…

Stylist:  (even more puzzled tone) Uh, riiiiiight……..

Blond Client:   And I don’t want my hair over-conditioned.

A couple of hours’ later, after she’s departed.

Hair salon proprietor, male (38):  She was three sheets to the wind, that one.  Best advertisement for banning all-day drinking I’ve ever seen…
