This Sunday at 11:30, Dusty the Hair Fairy is showing up at my place to do hair cuts and color. I met Dusty at the Dirt Road when I noticed a tremendously cute pixie-ish woman with glorious Isis wings tattooed across her upper chest. They were held together by a pair of long scissors. "Now what is that?" I wondered.

It wasn't long until I found out. Later, I watched Dusty take out her exquisite, perfectly balanced scissors and go into a trance as she circled around person after person, cutting, observing, feeling and bringing out the vision of beauty she held in her mind's eye as she worked. "Hmmmmm," I thought. "She looks like a Priestess in the grips of her ministry. If I didn't know better, I'd think I was watching someone whose work in the world was to coax inner beauty into the physical through the medium of haircuts".

I said this to myself because it had never occurred to me before that cutting hair could be a ministry, or that there could be a Priestess of hair care. I just hadn't thought about it.

By the end of the day, I realized that this was exactly what Dusty was.

She's coming here, this Sunday, at about 11:30. She'll be here all day, working her magic. This trip, she is especially interested in doing "total transformation cuts and/or color".

Dusty is careful to price her work very reasonably (dry cut $35; shampoo and blowout $45; no extra charge for long hair). If you want to check her out, she's "The Hair Fairy" on Facebook. Take a look. If you want me to save you a spot, let me know. If you want her phone number so you can talk to her yourself, let me know here or via cell phone or email. Even if you can't come Sunday, I encourage you to check her out. She's good.

By the way, on Sunday, everyone is welcome.

Lemme look at money and gas stuff. I have been needing a serious hack-it-off-and-start-over transformation. I was, in fact, just muttering over my tea about getting a pair if scissors and doing it myself. Dusty seems like an immeasurably better idea. (Perhaps my tea cup is a portal to some wish-granting entity? Hail Caffeina?)

Absolutely. Give me a call or drop me a line to let me know what's up.

Alas, it would seem neither work schedule nor current finances permit. It'll have to wait. Have fun! Those sorts of transformational things are super awesome to be a part of!

We'll miss you, but you'll be welcomed here with open arms whenever you come over, regardless of reason or time.

Wow....I wish we were staying longer! I have been contemplating a "transformation", and need some real help there. Darn. Maybe next time!

Damn, your courage is sweet. Can you send me a picture?

Sure! Honestly I am having Second Thoughts...but I said I would. I just wish the amount of money raised would be more than it appears it will be.

1) A bit of a silly question: how is one able to do this at a regular home? I thought there would need to be certain tools and stations and whatnot of the 'too big to lug around' nature.
2) When is the latest you need a reply by? Due to scheduling weirdness, I have a few days off starting Saturday and am thinking of going home. And I HAVE been thinking about lopping off all my hair...

1. I am no expert, but Dusty shows up with a couple of suitcases full of implements and professional color. She handles the washing process well with access to a sink and tub. She mixes, applies and does all work in our spacious kitchen.

2. As far as I am concerned, you can tell me on Saturday. You would be welcome to stay with us if you like. If this works for you, please join us.

You know what? Screw overthinking. I'm in. Just let me know what slot/time is best on Sunday, and I'll be there.

That would be lovely -- but I am scheduled for an all-day excursion on Sunday. There may be pictures later.

That sounds marvelous. I'm only sorry that I'm occupied with a work outing on Sunday :-(

Won't be able to make it this Sunday, but sounds like someone I need to see. I usually chop off some hair at Samhain, and with the divorce, the move, and everything else, it's time to get rid of some old energy.

BTW, there's a bunch of people listed under "The Hair Fairy." Any way to spot her?

Sad to miss this. I could use some Femme magick right about now! Give my love.
