A lot of people seem to be saying how they hate going to the hairdressers on this website. =P
And, i agree.
I'm having my hair cut for the first time in over a year next Friday, and i've been worrying about it. My mum made the appointment, (since i just freeze up if i'm talking to strangers on the phone) and typically, she's put me in for a WASH and trim! I was so mad at her! Now i've got to lay my head back in a bowl with someone else staring up my nose and washing my hair! I hate people even touching my hair, it goes down to below my bum, and it's just a hassle to do all the which is the only reason i want it cut in the first place. I just want to be out of there as soon as possible.
Gah.
And, i know i'll go, and when she asks me how i want it, i'll just be like "..uh.." or worse, silent. Eventually i'll probably ask her to just do what would look best, thereby her making me spend more money.
Gawd.
Life is so fricken complicated.

I hate it too, i dont know whether to talk or what.I just close my eyes and sit in silence most of the time.But i talk sometimes,thing i hate about it is i worry the hairdresser will see my hands shake when she gives me my glasses back or see me with a really nervous and scared look on my face when i get my glasses from her.

I tend to postpone it. however the longer I do the worse my hair gets and the more uncomfortable I feel about going.

I am the same as you jauggy. Ive needed mine cut for about 3 weeks now! I hate leaving the hosue without product in my hair cos it looks so stupid and frizzy. But they wont be able to cut it with gel in so i have to wear a hat, only I dont have a decent hat either. My only other option is to go early when nobody will see me. But i workmonday to friday, and saturdays the places are always packed! I cant win!

OoOO me too me too! JoJo I'm serious, I think you've just tapped into an good business idea there. I know lots of hairdressers do home services, but you could make yours even better.

lol..seriously tho if ppl travelled to c me i would do everythin..i could do the hair and beauty..even stay at mine for a night and then ya all sorted. then there is no nerves..or a lot less cos i can relate and i can talk for england aswell..so no awkward silences. suppose once ya build ya trust up with someone its a lot easier! i could do like private apointments so no other ppl in the shop or just do it in my house so thats even easier. could even have a lie down after if it stressed ya out! lol! ooooo it would be good!

I think that's an awesome plan! A lot of non sa-ers are also anxious about going to a salon lol. OOooh I'd love that, get all beautified lol.
