Hairdresser:
What can I do for you today?
Customer:
I’d like a cut and color, please.
Hairdresser:
Okay. Do you just want a trim, or are you looking for a new style?
Customer:
Well, my bangs could use a trim, and I have a lot of split ends. I’d like some
layers too.
Hairdresser:
Sure. Now, about your color. Do you want highlights, a full head color, or are we
just going to touch up your roots?
Customer:
I’d like some highlights and lowlights.
Hairdresser:
Great. Why don’t you look through some magazines while I get your colors mixed?
Customer:
Thanks a lot. Please keep in mind that I don’t want my hair too short.
Hairdresser:
No problem. We’ll do the color first and then we’ll do your cut. I’ll teach you how to
style it at the end.
