Batshit crazy hairlady strikes again

[TrogL]

I have no idea how this woman finds continued employment.

She used to run a hairdressing place in the west end of town and I'd specifically avoided ever getting my hair cut anywhere in the west end to avoid her. I desperately needed a haircut and my barber was closed for the day so I found a place in the east end of the city that was still open. We signed up for haircuts and I wanted a shampoo 'cause I knew my hair was a mess and when my turn came up I ended up with a Chinese lady who appeared to have little command of English.

To make life easier I said "hair short, but not as short as that (pointing at a picture), about one inch (demonstrating with fingers)". She immediately got out the buzzcut razor and starting hacking away back of my ear. I push her hand away, feel the 1/4 inch of hair left, and shout "ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME?!? I SAID THIS LONG (demonstrating)". Then it realized it was HER!!! the batshit crazy lady from the west end.

As I sat helplessly in the chair (she was wielding sharp scissors with murder in her eyes), she hacked away randomly at my hair, crooning to herself, babbling in some wierd mixture of English, Mandarin and Cantonese (yes, I know a smattering of the last two), cackling and screeching.

I figure I'll let it grow back in for a week, then get my regular barber to fix it.

I dont know whether to laugh or cry. I can totally picture you AND her. Oh man...

One time I got my hair cut in China. You get a shampoo, scalp & upper body massage for $2. Well I had done a bit of heavy drinking the night before, so as the girl was shampooing my head & giving me the scalp massage, I passed out. I woke up some time later when she started this weird mix of laughing and shouting. I opened my eyes and there she was, wide-eyed and pointing at my crotch. I look down and saw, horrified ... I had popped a major tent in my shorts. Needless to say she didnt finish my haircut. I got this very gay, very surly teenage boy who cut my hair in silence, never looking at me in the mirror. Nice.
