Thanks for leaving me a comment & see you here next year for some new shoes! Luck your hair was already looking fantastic, Liz, because I would have drawn a blank re: hairdressers here! ;)

Having for the first time ever found a hairdresser who "gets" what I want (and she went to school with my brother so I get a discount) I can promise it is possible. 2. Your haircut suits the whole amelie-au pair thig you've got going, I like it and if I wasn't dating a French guy who is obsessed with long hair I would go to your hairdresser and ask for the same! 3. Kim, Jo and I in Italy at 16 decided to get our hair(or hairs, because the Italians, unlike the english, realise that one has more than one "hair" - I don't know why we say leg hairs, but head hair is always singluar, I digress) cut together. We thought the lovely girl in the salon was saying "great? you're sure? great!" when she was saying "shorter? you're sure? (you crazy lady?ok...) shorter!" Needless to say we ended up with hair like Agyness Deyn, but decidedly less chic. So I think you did well. Amusingly, in my list of questions to ask when I encountered you in Paris was "hairdresser?" (yes, there was a list!) but I decided one bad international hair experience in a lifetime was enough. Ok 1.

Svet & Kyle - your <a href="http://kylekeeton.com/2008/03/russia-killer-haircut.html" title="killer haircut" rel="nofollow">killer haircut</a> was an eye-opener! I couldn't believe the lengths some people could go to over the price of a haircut! (and I thought I was irate!) My philosophy was always that the difference between a good and a bad haircut was three days... but I've definitely disproved that as a theory this time!

They pretend they're listening, then proceed to cut the style that they think you should have. It doesn't even count if you've been to them before.
