You Know It's A Black Hair Salon When. . .
I really thought that this was on GC, but could not find it anywhere and I searched thoroughly. . .
YOU KNOW IT'S A BLACK HAIR SALON WHEN...
1.) Your stylist accepts a 3pc from Popeye's as her tip.
2.) All the stylists walk around with house slippers on.
3.) Four people are booked for the same 1:00 appt.
4.) Your stylist calls YOU at the salon talking' bout "I overslept but I'm on my way."
5.) When your stylist finally arrives you can see that she had been to the club the night before because she still has on her club clothes, and she still has the red "over 21" stamp on the back of her hand.
6.) Every hairstyle, no matter what you're getting, requires that nasty brown gel.
7.) The STYLIST'S head looks a mess.
8.) There's a receptionist's booth at the front of the shop but no one ever uses it because it's stocked with beauty supplies.
9.) The Asian man from the carryout across the street comes in personally and takes food orders.
10.) You have to divide your tips 'bout four different ways cuz' one permed you, one shampooed you, one wrapped you and your stylist finished you up.
11.) You get to the salon and your stylist isn't there, so you gotta page her. When she calls back, you gotta go pick her and her baby up.
12.) Your ears are ringing because 'loud music' is playing on your stylist's radio and she is singing along.
13.) Somebody is making a chicken run and is taking orders from the stylists AND the clients.
14.) Your stylist stops doing your hair to go outside and talk to her baby daddy.
15.) Your stylist got 10 Polaroid pictures from the club stuck around the mirror.
16.) Your stylist holds a 15-minute phone conversation with somebody while she styles your hair.
17.) The tape man is there selling bootleg tapes for $5.
18.) The stylists all talk about each other.
19.) When they send Boo-Boo's baby girl to the 99-cent store to buy your $10 "deep conditioner."
20.) When for a finishing touch your stylist insist on sprinkling a little bit of glitter in your hair. ...W-E-L-L-L....
