THE SALON -- The Cutting Place


Amusing Musings
Micro Tale #202: "THE SALON" by Leon Enriquez
(For Adeline)
~~~~~~~~~

The Salon is a lovely place. Here, people come for grooming self-renewal. They walk away with noticeable light-hearted smiles. Plus a new-found zest for life. Mostly popping by with tired, sloppy hairlines. Pleasantly satisfied with their happy hair makeover complete. And re-discovering new life enroute to other pressing matters.
~~~~~~~~~
Chic and fashionable strutting with refreshing and liberated looks. Imagine a certain presence with a simply illuminating hair posture. An elegant hair sculpture certainly tells a good story. Reality made possible by another touching encounter with a creative hair maestro.
~~~~~~~~~
Day dreaming is a good thing, she thought to herself. All sorts of faces have come and gone, breezing through these glass portals. With festive flair, consider all the worthwhile encounters with hair styling, washing, colouring, perming, cutting, trimming, and blow drying. Then an appropriate styling twist that gives your hair a certain flair and outlook.
~~~~~~~~~
If ambience is the soul of creature comfort, then savvy and trendy curls and swirls, or even straight cut and groom fashion the very best in hair contours. Nice, very nice. All this grooming managed in a cozy environment where even ammonia has a minimalist effect.
~~~~~~~~~
Yes, a special place where your hair gets the right focus and cheery attention that your hair truly deserves. A natural look that's customised for the lady or the gentleman who desires to look good and feel good.
~~~~~~~~~
Imagine how passion and intensity create the subtle sense of glamour. Specially personalised for the individual fit. With the snip of scissors, comb and other treatment accomplices, the hair stylist ploughs her magic fingers to bring you a new hair lease and fond sparkle. A touch of finesse is at the heart of a unique experience for you.
~~~~~~~~~~
For ladies, elegant beauty and chic looks. For gentlemen, smart looks and handsome profiles. Finesse knows no bounds clearly. An "Aha! Moment" tells how you feel after your hair makeover. A glimpse of hair enlightenment!
~~~~~~~~~~
Make an appointment then with your beloved hair craftsman at The Salon. Reinvent your self. How can I help? Simply fashionable, smart and sexy.
~~~~~~~~~~
Feel The Salon experience at The Cutting Place. Self-indulgent hair extravagance that you can afford as you journey with your busy lifestyle.
~~~~~~~~~
She remembered the years of slogging with passionate persistence. And today, she has come a long way. Yes, years and years of paying dues brought her to this sacred space here and now.

    Dear Jan: Thank you for your kind words my friend. Yes, Adeline has a laminated copy of this Story in A5 poster size in a nice picture frame hanging in her salon. She loves this work. It’s been some time since I gave this to my sister-in-law Adeline.

    I wrote this story for my Adeline, my sister-in-law who is a London-trained hair stylist who owns a hair salon called The Cutting Place. It's her meaningful sacred space. It's her happy place.
