Haircuts and Such

I got a haircut today. At first I was a little scared that they wouldn't be able to understand what I wanted and that I would end up getting the typical Asian-style bowl hair cut. But I must say, I'm pretty dang impressed. I went to Toni & Guy in the Siam Discovery Center, and I am thoroughly impressed with the way they handled it. First off, I was in there for about an hour, not ten minutes, like back in America. Second of all, they really took their time to make me feel comfortable and the haircut was perfect.

They first gave me a shampoo and scalp massage. Yes, scalp massage. It was amazing. Then they sat me down and the hair stylist started to cut. At this point, the shampoo guy offered me something to drink - coffee, tea, soda, etc. The stylist took about 20-30 minutes really detailing my hair. Then it was back for another shampoo. All that for 700 baht. It's a lot more than what I wanted to pay, but I really needed a haircut and I wanted a good way to get used to the hair cutting procedure in Thailand.
