Going to the hairdresser might sound like something really easy. Well, in a new country it does actually require some research and preparation. Firstly, you would want to have a hairdresser recommended. After all, it's about your appearance. Then you might want to research the costs. Not all hairdressers charge the same for doing the same job. Then finally you need to update your vocabulary. Going through the dictionary, you memorize terms you think you might need.
Ones being there, the hairdresser doesn't necessarily use the words listed in your dictionary... So you do your best to understand, and when nothing else works you just smile and say ¡sí! Explaining how you'd like to have your hair is surprisingly difficult. Getting a long, lovely head-massage to start with and a 20 minutes job with the hairdryer in the end, you feel refreshed. And when the people in the saloon tell you how pretty you look, well, then you feel pretty. It's nice feeling new and attractive.
