Allergic to...me?

[Buford]

Howdy! I had to post this. Although its my first observation, I think is good enough to make a topic of it.

It all happened this morning. Hate to admit it, but I really needed a haircut, so I went to the hairdresser to get over with it once and for all. This one girl recieved me. She was around her 26's, had short black hair and a little pointy nose with a ring on it, pale skin and lovely blue eyes.

So I sat down and stealthly stared at her through the mirror while she did all the cutting. I must mention that I had a lot of hair by then, and you could tell that some of it was getting in the air.

Suddenly, our pretty girl started sniffing I thought to myself "Nah, it can't be, that would be too good to even imagine it happening" but there was definitely something causing her nose to itch, and she was having touble fighting against it. But she was defeated as she released two large uncovered sneezes to her side "ah... oh God wha... aeshoo! a-ATCHOO!" I could not believe it. "oh, excuse me dearie" I nodded like a braindamaged ape, still procesing the awesomeness of the event.

Later on she contiued sniffing helplessly as her nose started to turn red. Thats right, the best was yet to come "Eh -sniff- here we go again" she claimed, followed by a fit that sounded a little like this: "eh-hetscheew... ishoo... atCHEW...HASHOO!", changing her way of sneezing every time. "Ungh, sorry -sniff- this has never happened before" I asked her if she had allergies, to which she replied "Not really ,although it might be your hair what is making me so sneezy" she giggled graciously as I nervously chuckled, I was in heaven.

I walked home thinking "Gee wiz, good things really DO happen!"

Needles to say, that was the best haircut I ever had.

Toodle-doo!

Wow, lovely obs! For some reason I really like the idea of a sneezing hairdresser.

Lovely! Hairdresser obs are great!

Nearly everytime I go to the hairdressers I get to see one of the girls sneeze at least once, makes it even more enjoyable!

I guess it makes sense with all those little bits of hair being snipped off... seems that they could be quite tickly if they got up your nose!

But Buford's hairdresser said 'this has never happened before', so maybe it's not the hair at all? I don't know.

I'm glad you guys liked it.

I guess it could be something else that could've been setting her off, but it sure is nice to think that YOU were the reason of the sneezing. Also, in my opinion, human hair induced sneezes are...quite shocking.

Funny how I used to hate getting haircuts... now I'm just waiting for my hair to grow back to get another one

You're right - hairdressers are classic sneeze obs territory Thanks for sharing this experience Buford - love the fact that she talked about it too!

That was a great obs. For once, a haircut was worthwhile. Thanks for posting this.
