I Hair You Had A Great Experience

Ever notice there are a lot of places to get a hair cut that has some bogus play on words, usually involving the word "hair?" The Nobel prize winning staff at CleggThis have as well.

One other thing the staff (and when I say staff, I mean me) of CleggThis have noticed is that the nice people who cut hair feel they always have to make small talk. Nothing annoys me more than having to talk about how warm/cold it has been or if the sun will ever come out. As you can see, the small talk usually involves the weather. It as been a goal of mine to find the magical phrase that will shut these people up. Most days, my tactics involve me trying to say as little as possible to give the impression that I don't care what they have to say. The thought of saying "shut the hell up" to a person with a sharp object very close to me head has never been very appealing.

All that changed today. A man, whom I will only refer to John "the smartest man alive" Doe sat across the shop getting a hair cut and avoiding the wasteful blabber of his hair cutter. How may you ask? Did he bring his own muzzle? Did he give her a good quick slap before he sat down? No, he only did the simplest thing he could have done, and in doing so solidified himself as the genius of the hair cut. He read a magazine.

BRILLIANT!!!!!!

Why did I never think of this? Is there some invisible force field I felt between the waiting area and the swivel chairs?

And then, after witnessing what I felt was an act of God, I was given the hair stylist who didn't speak English. Isabelle, as I will call her since I didn't get her name, gave me the single greatest hair cut I have ever had. She did exactly what I asked, she kept quiet and even got that problematic spot around my right side that no one ever seems to get right.

In conclusion, there are 2 ways to get a great hair cut:

1. Read a magazine.
2. Request Isabelle.
