OVERHEARD-Hair Salon

The woman behind me was getting something complicated done to her hair. I could see them in the mirror but I could also hear them perfectly because I am an unabashed eavesdropper. The hairdresser was, apparently, unhappy with her boyfriend.

Client, “What you need is THE RULES.”

Stylist, “What’s the rules?”

Client, “If you knew what the rules were, you wouldn’t need the rules and you wouldn’t be in this mess in the first place!”

Stylist, “It don’t matter. He’s a cowboy. He wouldn’t know the rules if they bit him in the butt!”

OK
