Hairdressers in the UK and Venezuela

Submitted by editor on 31 May, 2010 - 05:59

iStock_000012710565XSmall - hairdressers As you probably heard, I recently had a haircut! It is more o less the same as it used to be but a bit more fresh, perfect for the summer! I am not a very adventurous person when it comes to hair styles, particularly this time in Newcastle because I was scared of not understanding what the hairdresser said and ending up with something I didn’t feel comfortable with, like it happened to Emily! It also happened to me once when my friend talked me into cutting my hair very short, above my shoulders -I didn’t like it at all!!
