My Dear Lisa:
It is my hope that this letter finds you well and ready to return to the helm of the shop once again. Your smiling face and sunny disposition have been missed.
It is
with heavy heart and a bad hair day that I write you. We have seen little of each other this season. My curls have missed your nimble fingers soapy embrace. I miss the snip, snip of your razor sharp wit and the way
you dust my shoulder when you are done with me.
But alas, I am raked with guilt. I must confess I have been with another hairdresser. I did not mean it to happen. But last month, I came to your shop at my
appointed hour for our monthly rendezvous. But you were not there. They said you were ill. That you would not be back in for weeks, maybe more. What was I to do???
Now I am not going to patronize you by
saying that my hair has needs and that sometimes guys think with their follicles, if you know what I am saying… No, no, I would never use that old ploy. I just have to acknowledge that I am weak. I walked into
your store and then I saw her…my ebony temptress. She was long of leg and had eyes that touched my very soul.
She told me that she knew what to do. She told me she would take care of my hair needs. That
everything would be alright. Her deft and knowing hands moved quickly, lowering my resistance. The click-click of the scissors quelled my protests and lulled me into a false sense of euphoria. It was not until she
came up behind me with the vibrating shears and the smile of a Cheshire cat that I realized what I had done.
Oh…she was good. She was very, very good. But it just did not feel right. I knew what I must do. I
must go to you, confess my indiscretion and beg your forgiveness. Please do not blame this beguiling vixen. To her, I am sure, it was just another notch in the hairbrush, another head. Like so many before and so
many yet to come. It was a quick fling that meant nothing to either of us.
So I ask we put this behind us and that you take me back to your chair. I promise it will be different from now on. Next time you can
even use some hair gel.
Humbly…I remain,
A Loyal Customer
