Have you ever looked forward to a day when it finally arrives only to turn out very different than you expected?
You’re thinking about a day that sucked, aren’t you? To be honest with you that’s what I thought was going to happen to me the other day. But not getting what I expected led to something even better happens. Would you like to hear what happened?…
Great! Here’s my story…
For the past 8 months I’ve been letting my hair grow after receiving such a bad haircut I seriously thought about shaving my head.
I had been looking for a new stylist here in my hometown. Continuing to take a 4-hour plane ride to get my hair cut in California was not my first choice. I had been going to an out-of-state stylist because it takes someone very special to cut curly hair so it naturally looks and behaves amazingly.
So, one of my haircut conditions is that it gets cut dry. I found a salon and a stylist who I thought would do an excellent job. Today was my appointment with him. I drove an hour to get to the salon to meet him. He was wonderful. He totally understood what I was looking for so I was really looking forward to this haircut. Then he dropped the bombshell. The receptionist had given me incorrect information. He doesn’t cut hair dry. We both had to agree he was not the right person for me.
I left the salon despondent. The mucked scrambled thought processes I had been feeling in my brain because of the bad haircut were still there. So on my drive home, I decided that since getting to have pretty hair was no longer on today’s agenda I would go to an upscale shopping mall and look at pretty things there.
While walking around I passed a jewelry store with a large window poster for some lovely crystal rings or bracelets. I couldn’t tell which.. and decided to go into the store to check them out.
