Bad Hair Day

I made a big mistake last week.

I cheated.

Needing a quick trim before going to Chicago for Passover and without enough time to head back to John Allan's for the full service treatment from Kaci, I went back to Astor Place Hairstylists.

The cut wasn't bad, but John Allan's has spoiled me for life. I sat in the chair in the Astor Place basement and noticed all the dust and hair covering every surface in the cavernous room. My hair was wetted down using a spray bottle that probably hadn't been cleaned since the Reagan administration. John Allan's, amazingly enough for a place that's in the business of cutting hair, has barely a strand on the floor. My haircut was okay, but I missed the shoeshine and complimentary beverage at the uptown joint.

Kaci, if you're reading, will you ever forgive me? It was just a one time thing and it wasn't even that good. I promise, it meant nothing!
