Fabulous ! That is what I thought as I drove home this afternoon after a spur of the moment experience. I had finished work, but had to drop some things at the local Dry Cleaner , which is not a place I go to very often. I found to that a new beauty place had opened right next to it, and on a big sign in the window it advertised Eyebrows and Facial hair removal.
Well, I had just spent several minutes the day before trying with a pair of tweezors to tidy up my eyebrows which of course, after removing my specs to get at them, I could no longer see them. Self beautification treatments have become a very frustrating and sometimes blood letting procedure, when I accidently 'tweeze' a chunk of skin in the process. I had been toying with the idea of seeking professional help in this dept. for awhile.
The girls seemed to be all sitting around with no clients so in I went and asked how much it would cost ? " Eyebrows , $5, upper lip $5 , chin $5 , " and so on the young Asian girl chanted at me -" can do you right now ." she offered. I decided that I might as well treat myself to $20 worth !
How fascinating... I have never had this 'threading ' type of hair removal before, and apart from a slight tingling sensation , it was quite painless really. As I was lying down while she was working, I could not see what was going on, but when she had finished I ran my hands over my face and I don't remember ever feeling so smooth , in my life before. Well not for a good many years anyway, since my hormones all ran haywire.
Afterwards, I rushed off to my favourite coffee shop, to have an energy fix before heading for motorway, and home . Every now and then I ran my hand down my cheeks and under my chin, and marvelled with delight at the soft , smoothness of it, telling myself my face felt as smooth as babies bottom. When I got home and had a real good look at myself in the mirror, I thought " Oh my God.... my face even LOOKS like a babies bottom too............................yeah, yeah , yeah...... ...one with nappy rash !
