I’m in the hairdresser’s chair.
In the mirror, I see a horrendous hulk clutching shear-size scissors.
The floor shakes as he approaches.
Hackackackack.
In seconds, I‘m bald as a baby’s bum.
From hair-raising to hairless. I look horrific.
Coming here was a harebrained idea.
He didn’t even offer me a coffee.

Thanks to Sammi Cox for hosting the Weekend Writing Prompt
oops!)
Very oopsie!
Nothing worse than a bad haircut you watch them perform! Loved this, Keith.
I know, you just sit there feeling helpless!
Thanks so much.
After that first boo-boo chop there’s no going back….. hehehe
Oh no 😬
Oh yes, sadly!
😅
This happened to me once while on vacation. My hair was pretty short at the time and I went to the local (and only!) hairdresser for a shorter, spiky cut. She chopped my hair so short and butchered it so badly, it took nearly 6 months of trimming and re-shaping by my usual hairdresser back home before I was able to work with it. Never again! Your write is much funnier than my experience, for sure!
6 months! That really did need some sorting out!
I did once have a haircut that left me almost bald – that’s what inspired me to write this somewhat exagerated version of what I underwent.
It was truly awful; there were chunks of hair missing which is why it took so long to grow back. Bill was, of course, very supportive and conciliatory; it was years later that he admitted I looked like a cat that got caught in a fan belt! 😹
I shouldn’t be laughing at your misfortune, but Bill’s description was just too funny!
No worries, dear Keith! Bill’s a smart man; he knew better than to make a crack like that at the time of the butchery! Now we just laugh at it. 😹
Bee thankful you came away with your ears. 😉
Pardon, did you say something?
Oh my goodness, what a shocker… talk about ‘a bad hair day!!’ Great take on the prompt Keith. Well done!
As they go, that really was a baddun! Cheers, Suzette!
Oooops! Nothing quite like a bad haircut. Good one, Keith!
Too true! Thanks so much…
Choose your barber well if you can, and if not, remember the difference between a bad haircut and good haircut is two weeks.
Excellent advice, I’ll bear it in mind!
LOL. That happened to me in Dubrovnik. I thought it was awful until I got to London and the taxi driver complimented me.
Haha, how funny! Either he was serious or he was after a big tip!
Way to kill a girl’s ego.
Oh God 😊
right, a hairbrained idea! 😊
