The greatest part of our happiness or misery depends on our dispositions and not on our circumstances.

Hair

My daughter is a hair stylist. She needs more continuing education credits, so tomorrow I get a perm.  I have always been her best guinea pig. Since she began her schooling and has made a career for herself, I have been the recipient of numerous beauty techniques. 

My hair has been brushed, combed, backcombed, cut, trimmed, texturized, colored, highlighted, low lighted, permed, curled, and straightened. My eyebrows have been  tweezed, plucked, waxed and colored. The inside of my nose, my lip, my entire face, my arm pits and my toes have all been waxed. I have been treated to facials, pedicures, manicures and eyelash extensions and I have used products too numerous to mention. 

I do draw the line with the waxing of the inside of my nose again and I find the arm pit waxing a waste of time. Had I not been lying down with a hot towel on my face when receiving a facial, I guarantee my toes would never have been waxed.
She is a sneaky one, and yet I keep going back for more.

  1. This is a great story. We'll do anything for our kids. Well, almost anything. I let my young daughter paint my toenails once, then forgot, slipped on sandals and went to the car dealer. Imagine the looks I got in the waiting room until I noticed. Yikes!!
