my hair stylist, tragedy & confusion

my hair stylist knew my hair & the way i feel about it better than anyone could, i sat in the chair and made sign language & he'd get it everytime..for years we talked about dying it & when i finally worked up the nerve to put redish streaks in it last november he wasn't surprised at all to see me walk in a month later with it all back to black..he laughed at me & said he knew it, it just wasn't me (that's why he refused to strip & do blonde highlights, he convinced me I'd weene myself there if I could) he was so right to do that, he wasn't insulted, he just told me i was silly for spending over 200 on high lights only to spend 8 bucks covering them, lol...ah Albert..we talked about my wedding hair every visit since i got engaged last february...he knew exactly what i have pictured, i had my appt with him for 11am on my wedding day, scheduled at the beginning of this year..

I got a call from my salon 2 weeks ago..

'Albert passed away'

I have not thought about my wedding hair since the call, coming to terms with the fact he is gone, my hair magician, my stylist, my Albert.

I am worried, no one but him has touched my hair in years..

Oh my goodness..that is so sad! I am very sorry to hear that...where are you located?

I am so sorry for your loss.... i know it must be tough b/c a hairstylest becomes such a close friend after going there for so many years

I know it will be hard, but i would start going and having trials done so that way you can put ur mind at ease...

Oh thats so sad

i know, i definitely have to do this, i have to make an effort this wknd to schedule and perhaps do some, i've just been wallowing about Albert

oh, sweetie. I'm so sorry.

Awww that was touching what you wrote about him.

I am sorry for your loss! Hair stylists that we know and love are so important- kind of like family. Hang in there girl.

omg how sad I am terribly sorry

That is sooooo sad. Im so sorry

I know its going to be hard but if you need a recommendation, my girl totally gets my hair and no one else does. She's also the type of stylist who wont do something if she doesnt think its right or wont cut it unless she thinks it work with your face. Let me know if you wanna give her a try. Albert would be very happy to know you had your perfect wedding day hair!

That's horrible! I'm sorry...

That is sooo sad about Albert!!!!

so sorry
