I don't know if she's still there but she did a great job with my hair!<br /><br />Best of luck and I hope the move goes smoothly.<br /><br />LauraLaura Sparlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05291538001842729975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490460042834444771.post-31688937818482414252011-06-19T11:36:43.006+01:002011-06-19T11:36:43.006+01:00Hi,

I ca...Hi, <br /><br />Firstly, your beads are really lovely.<br /><br />I came across this site by doing a google search for hairdressers in Southampton who know how to look after curly hair, so sorry that this is a little off topic. I was wondering whether you would be able to send me the details of your Soton hairdresser please, as I am moving down there at the end of the month and am also too scared to try new stylists! <br /><br />Also, if you're looking for recommendations for stylists in a new area, try www.britishcurlies.co.uk who have a forum about curly hairdressers throughout GB. Unfortunately no-one could recommend anyone in Soton!<br /><br />Thanks a lot, hope you can help me and find yourself a lovely new hairdresser!<br /><br />xxxGeorgiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13050570352743062822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490460042834444771.post-66075193781450853022009-01-13T21:07:00.000+00:002009-01-13T21:07:00.000+00:00Janine - No, I don't think any of us will ever be ...Janine - No, I don't think any of us will ever be happy with our hair!

Why not do that, visit your hairdresser in Southampton and catch up with friends at the same time? <BR/><BR/>LynneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490460042834444771.post-88895337433865361502009-01-13T17:22:00.000+00:002009-01-13T17:22:00.000+00:00Oh wow!

My hair is nothing but straight and I spend most of my life trying to make it big and full of body. Hairdressers seem to think they need to grab the straighteners and make my hair super sleek which I'm just not into! Will us girlies ever be happy?!<BR/><BR/>J xxJanine - Pretty Vintage Tea Partyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10221350814449558643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490460042834444771.post-17244547915666466432009-01-13T14:37:00.000+00:002009-01-13T14:37:00.000+00:00Yeah V, I have contemplated going back to see Sam ...Yeah V, I have contemplated going back to see Sam but the salon is right at the end of the road where the old house is. I think it would upset me if I went back there. I know, I know, I'm being a sap. And anyway, I'm going to have to find a new hairdresser - one here in Abingdon and then another in Cambridge when I move. So I may as well just do it and if I end up looking like a poodle then so be it! :o)Laura Sparlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05291538001842729975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490460042834444771.post-39113984283703270662009-01-13T14:27:00.000+00:002009-01-13T14:27:00.000+00:00Oh, the fun of finding a good hairdresser who does...Oh, the fun of finding a good hairdresser who doesn't decide that your curls would look lovely if they were just a bit tighter and cut so you look like an 80's poodle! Yes, I have that t-shirt, been there as they say. I still go home to Cornwall to get mine cut - how sad is that LOL Anyone you know who needs visiting in Southampton? It would stave off the inevitable for a few more weeks:)<BR/>I love Joy's idea of putting all her beads on one charm bracelet - what a lovely keepsake.<BR/>Good luck with finding a good hairdresser - I empathise.

It is a bit distracting wearing it really as I keep looking at the beads and showing it to everyone I met :-) <BR/>I so sympathise with the hair thing. My hair has a mind of its own and new hairdressers always think they know better when you tell them it just doesn't like being cut a certain way.

I hate going to the hairdressers. Lately I've been going without any make up as I know that, when they wash off the colour, they'll also wash off my make up & I end up with mascara in my eyes stinging all day! I also sit with my fingers crossed throughout the whole "relaxing" (not!) process & scared that I'll hate the cut I end up with (which is never what I may have shown them in a photo, just one of the 10 or so cuts they've been taught to do & which everyone in the salon ends up with!). Does Sam do non-curly hair??<BR/>PS Joy's bracelet looks great & what a lovely way of keeping all her first-made beads.<BR/>Kay (Soton) xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490460042834444771.post-42943864739061327822009-01-12T21:52:00.000+00:002009-01-12T21:52:00.000+00:00Oh I feel your pain!

I had a great hairdresser up in Leicester but it took me over a year to find one in SOuthampton who could deal with my curls - I wish I had known you then so you could have given me Sam's details! The worst experience was before a pair of scissors had touched my hair. I was asked "so, how often do you have your hair permed?". I walked out!
