OK, so…you know those smocks that yous put on before y'all get your hair cut at a salon? Well, at the identify where I get my hair washed (Play a trick on + Stone in Corte Madera, California), they hang them in a tiny private changing room, so that when you walk in, you lot take off your jacket (or your shirt, if you're feeling so inclined), and put on your smock before you sit down in the chair.

They're simply the regular ol', basic smocks. You slip into them like a jacket and tie the forepart.

Anyhow, when I walked into the salon today to get my bangs trimmed, I went into the niggling room, put on my smock, so walked back out into the sitting expanse and sat downwards.

I was playing with my phone when I got that prickly feeling… You know the i, when you feel similar somebody is intensely staring at you?

I looked up and there was this dude sitting in the corner looking at me, but he wasn't, like, checking me out or annihilation. He was only staring and looked really, REALLY dislocated.

So, of class I had to stare back at him with my confrontational "What the heck are YOU staring at, homie?!" eyes. And then he said, quite loudly, "OHHHHH!" and stood upward abruptly.

Turns out he'd put on his smock backwards, like a infirmary gown! He realized it when he saw mine. 🙂

We both cracked upward laughing. "Oh, don't feel bad," I told him. "You acquire something new every twenty-four hour period."

In other news…I ran into some interesting products while I was there at the salon today, similar this hair serum and leave-in treatment by Garret Markenson REVERIE.

My roots did a piffling dance (I can seem my roots doing the Robocop for some reason, don't enquire me why!) when I saw Oribe's new Airbrush Root Bear on-Up Spray.

Did I mention that anybody in my family goes grayness early?

Yeah, information technology's ane of the reasons I oasis't gotten down with the whole silver dyed hair trend. I'm like, "Why would I pay $$$$ to plough my pilus silver when information technology's gonna practice it naturally in the adjacent 10 seconds anyway?"

These sprays temporarily embrace the gray and absorb oil and clay at the roots, kinda like a combo hair concealer/dry shampoo.

Speaking of bottles, these are tiny — just 0.7 ounces at $29 a pop.

Aye…ouch. I'thousand all the same intrigued, though. Oribe is ordinarily worth the toll. Everything I've tried from them works actually well. It's bachelor at present at Trick + Rock (while yous're there, say how-do-you-do to Alis for me, and tell her I said "wassup?") and online at oribe.com in five shades — Blonde, Red, Calorie-free Brown, Nighttime Brown and Black.
