no idea what piccie you maybe are referring to but I presume you are also a hairdresser since you seem to be talking about hair styles & the industry with such authority.I expect if you have been in the industry for well over 30 years like I have that you will know that many women look & also go for comfort as well as style when they want a haircut - depending on their circumstances & environment.As a professional hairdresser you would also know how to gauge your clients needs by talking to your client within a short time of them first sitting down in front of you.
I'd love to know where you work.I may have run into you either at Interstate or International hairdressing conferences over the years.I have been involved in running state functions myself with committees.
Gather it might be webshots from one of our many Bali trips that you saw an unflattering photo of me & my hair at the time.Like many of the ladies here when in Bali,it's so sweaty there that we often tie back or clip up our long hair- so it's not a real fancy style.At home in hot weather or if even going out for a night out at home in our convertible my long hair is also often clippped back up so I can arrive at our destination not being fully wind swept.
Long hair styles can be very versatile but if you are cutting long hair that is fine & graded or thick & curly & needs to be graded at various lengths you really need to know what you a doing.It's not brain surgery just basic professional training but not everyone is skilled in doing this.
I was specifically looking for some input from the girls here on BTF (many who are long term friends of well over 10 years )who were happy with a Bali hairdresser.Maybe you can offer some real useful advise & tell me where your other half goes to a hairdressers in Bali.
On BTF we are supposed to be allowed to ask opinions/questions of fellow travellers & their experiences on anything Bali related - hopefully without being ridiculed for doing so.
Thanks for being so asute to observe somewhere online that I have long red hair & no insult meant but your post didn't really add anything at all to this thread or help me out in any way.Why on earth did you bother to comment in the first place when all you really said was that you observed somewhere that I had long red hair ? If you are a hairdresser I would be surprised because usually anyone in the industry is a real people person with a good sense of humour & rarely would make an observation with a snide comment.
