Entry 15: The Alternative…

Today I'm finally getting my hair done! Goodbye ugly roots, hello lovely highlights!

It's a bit odd, because it's all backwards. The hairdresser came round two days ago and cut my hair. Now he's coming back today to highlight it. For those who have absolutely no idea of what goes on in the salon, you usually have your highlights done, then hair washed, then cut and dry.

Extensive research on my part (having peeped through the window of several hairdressers both in Liverpool and my current town) has shown that accessing a salon is near impossible for me. Certainly for what I want done, as every single hairdressers has their seats bolted to the floor by the sinks. And I have no way of transferring from my power chair to one of these fancy chairs to have my hair washed. So, we are having to be creative at home.

Hmm. The day didn't pan out quite how I described it earlier, but I'm very pleased with the results anyway!

and the cheesiest grin award goes to…
