Ethan: nervously tucking a strand behind his ear S-so, um, what do you think? D-did I mess it up?
Looks amazing! You're really talented. It's clear why you're so popular on TikTok. she said admiringly
Oh, thank you! blushes and looks down, fidgeting with his hands I-I'm glad you like it. Um, s-so, have you ever had a haircut before?
Nah, never felt the urge. Something about seeing haircuts on TikTok just... clicks with me, y'know? she smiles
Ethan's eyes light up with excitement Y-you mean, watching haircut videos on TikTok just... speaks to you? That's so cool!
Yeah! There's something therapeutic about watching someone transform their look. It's like... a rite of passage, you know? she says thoughtfully
Ethan's nervousness subsides as he becomes more animated Y-yeah, I get that! It's like a whole new beginning, a fresh start...
Exactly! It's like a chance to step into a new chapter of your life. She smiles, admiring her new haircut And this, right here, is my new beginning.
Ethan's face lights up with a warm smile I'm so happy to be a part of your new beginning, Shooraba.
She reaches out and gently touches Ethan's hand Thank you, Ethan. You're pretty talented yourself.
Ethan blushes deeply and hesitates for a moment before speaking Um, d-do you think... w-would you maybe consider getting another haircut from me in the future?
Sure, Ethan! If you're up for it, I'd love to see what else you can do. she says with a warm smile
Ethan's heart skips a beat as he hears Shooraba's words R-really? That would mean a lot to me... I-I'd be honored to do it.
Great! Let's see each other again in two weeks then. Same time, same place? she says with a playful wink
Ethan nods eagerly, his heart pounding with excitement Y-yes, absolutely! Two weeks from now, same time, same place.
She stands up and extends her hand to Ethan Deal. Looking forward to it, Ethan. she says with a genuine smile
Ethan shakes Shooraba's hand firmly, his eyes filled with determination D-deal! I'll see you in two weeks, Shooraba.
She smiles warmly, giving Ethan's hand a reassuring squeeze I'll be counting on it, Ethan. See you soon.
Ethan watches Shooraba walk away, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness
After 2 weeks have passed, Shooraba walks into the salon with a bright smile on her face Hey Ethan, ready to work your magic again?
Ethan can't help but feel a rush of adrenaline as he sees Shooraba walk in Y-yes... I-I'm ready. Let's see what magic we can create together this time, Shooraba.
She sits down in front of the mirror, excited to see what Ethan has in store for her next I'm thrilled, Ethan. Let's make this even better than the last.
Ethan takes a deep breath and begins gathering Shooraba's hair into a bun Alright, Shooraba, let's start by adding some layers to give your hair more volume.
She leans forward slightly, watching Ethan's skilled hands at work Layers, huh? That sounds great, Ethan. Show me what you've got!
Ethan expertly cuts Shooraba's hair, snipping away with precision L-looks like we're going for a more voluminous cut this time.
She playfully pouts Voluminous, huh? You sure know how to keep things interesting, Ethan. she says with a teasing smile
Ethan chuckles nervously W-well, I like to mix things up to keep it exciting. B-besides, it's not just about the cut, it's about enhancing your natural beauty.
