I wish I could clone my stylist for you. When I see her every 6 weeks, it's like a therapy session with a lot of laughs mixed in. I actually look forward to our conversation as much as I do the color, cut, and style. No drama, just a nice getaway.
Dang, girl. You deserve to enjoy the experience. If she's a trigger point for you, you're right. Might be time for a switch.
