"Do you want a cup of coffee?"
I look blankly back at her in the mirror. I hesitate. A coffee? Do I want a coffee??? Why do I hesitate? I sit in a comfortable chair at the fancy hairdresser studio called something like "scull" which I don't make out completely. The are in the business of hair, why name the head?? Well, the establishment looks chic and they sell shampoos that have silver in them and cost a fortune and Emma sprayed some hair shine over my hair and a whiff of mint and vanilla emerged. No children to look after and some gossip magazines on a high black table at arm length complete my Saturday morning. Again it is mind boggling that I hesitate at her question. Say "yes!" goddammit and make the golden hour a special hour, an hour to remember, talk to friends about etc.! So I do and five minutes later I have a steaming cappuccino in white cup and saucer from Nespresso. I know it is steaming after I burn my tongue at the first sip. But nothing can take my good mood. I am turning blond today and I am alone! Yippee!!!

Later when Emma washes my hair I feel something bumpy moving up and down my back. A dog? is my first reaction. Or the water swifting down in some pipes that has been embedded to the chair? After a while, when the bumpy movements take form I realise it is a massage I am getting. Oh, my god! Scull even have massage chairs for the horrible hair washing scenario. Just to clarify, I don't mind having my hair washed, it is actually quite nice, but I always get a soar neck afterwards where the ceramic sink cuts into my neck. Now, it is vital that I hold up the image of me as a international chick that has seen one or to hair saloons in her day. I am not to mention this not entirely unpleasant sensation. So, no orgasmic noises right now.

Fifteen minutes I come out of there looking great! I would not go as far as ravishing although it was the first word that hit my conscious... Now, every time I see myself in the mirror I get some weird "I love you too, and hey you look gre... no ravishing today!" - moment. Today is a good day.
