So, this new haircut place opened next to the Old Navy where i work a couple days ago. Before they opened, one of the gals came by our store and gave us tickets for a reduced price, 6.95 instead of 12.95.
So, since i've got an interview next week, i figure i'll stop by and get a haircut after work. I go in and sit in the waiting room, and notice something about the "All Star Massage" on the price list for like $10. I kinda snort and go 'yeah right, like i'm droppin 10 bones for some gal to rub my head'.
I sit in the chair and she starts cuttin my hair, and we start the normal chit chat. When i say that i just graduated from A&M she goes, 'oh yeah? what fraternity were you in?'
I just stopped, most of y'all know that frats are usually not the first thing that comes to mind when people think of A&M. I told her i was a Sigma Nu and she goes, 'really? you look like a pike, when i lived in Nacogdoches they used to come in and get their haircut all the time. They were the big, buff guys that lived at the gym" I kinda smile and politely say thanks, but no, indeed i was a SNake. When i told her i worked at old navy, she's like, 'oh yeah? do y'all have some of the coupons over there?" and i'm like yeah, there's some in the back, so she goes, "well, guess i'll have to take good care of ya so you can send all the guys over here" and smiles.
After the haircut, she's like, well, did you want the massage? and i was like, no, that's ok, i'm headin to the gym after this. and she goes, "really? well, let me give ya a complimentary shampoo to get the hair off of your neck", so, me being the practical guy i am, i accept. She gets me in the chair and starts shampooing my hair, then puts this gel stuff in my hair and my face. Next came the warm towel, and before i knew it, she's like, massaging my head and face through the towel. Needless to say, i was taken aback. I mean, i think i just got the guy equivalent of a facial. I go back to the chair and she sits me down and pulls out one of those massage thingies, and starts rubbin my back with it. Then she goes, 'ooh, your back is really muscular" again, i'm like, uh thanks.
So when i'm walkin to the counter to pay, she's like, "well i hoped ya liked the massage, that one's on the house. Don't go tellin your buddies that all they have to do is flirt with the girl to get a free one, they're gonna have to pay for it."
and i'm walkin to my truck going, wow, was i really flirting? i'm soo bad at knowing. lifesaver can attest to that, when it comes to flirting i'm about as smooth as metamucial.
but hey, it was a free massage right? I mean, the girls gonna have loads of regulars if she's givin everyone that treatment. This will go down as the first time i've 'flirted' with someone to get a service, although, i know you gals that work sales flirt all the time to close the deal
