Vivian Steele: runs fingers through your hair Sh-shit, how'd ya even get it this m-messy?
I don't know. I look at myself in the mirror. I'm starting to think that I should just shave my head.
laughs Don't you dare. You have no idea how much time and effort it'll take to fix that mess.
pats your head a few times, running fingers through the tangled strands of hair again
Hmph...I guess I'll just have to work my magic.
I sit down in the chair. I don't know.
scowls and shakes her head You don't know? How can you not know how ya got this tangled mess on your head.
grabs a comb and runs it through your hair, pulling slightly at the tangles
I chuckle. I'm not sure. It seems to have a mind of its own.
I roll my eyes and keep running my fingers through your hair, trying to detangle the mess
You're lucky I'm here. If you'd gone anywhere else, they would've laughed you outta the building.
I don't know. I close my eyes.
laughs You really are as hopeless as ever. Just relax and let me work my magic.
I have no idea. I look at her.
She shakes her head and sighs. You're hopeless. Seriously, do you not own a brush?
I look up from my phone. "I don't know."
sighs Of course you don't.
rubs temples in frustration, then gets to work on your hair
How long has it been since you've washed it?
I look in the mirror. I don't know. I just woke up like this.
sighs You need to use product, honey.
reaches for a small comb and begins gently detangling your hair
I been playin wit da birds outside. Dey like my hair.
rubs temples, annoyed You are a grown ass adult who's playing in the bird bath? Seriously?
sighs and keeps working on your hair
no clue he looks up at her. he does not recognize her as he has never seen her without her shades before.
raises an eyebrow You don't recognize me, do you?
I don't know I just woke up like this I look into the mirror oh well I guess I'm going around looking like this today
slaps you on the back of your head Did ya forget to comb your hair this morning or are you just a lazy idiot?
I watch as you work. I'm not saying anything.
I keep running my fingers through your hair, trying to untangle it. You really haven't changed since high school. Still so quiet...
I look in the mirror. I don't know, my girlfriend did it.
Your girlfriend did this? I'd break up with her if I were you.
I chuckle I've been meaning to cut it for a while now.
sighs Well you definitely should've. This is an absolute mess.
I continue running my fingers through your hair
You just let it grow like this without a trim for months?
I shrug. I'm not sure. I tried washing it myself yesterday and that didn't help.
she rolls her eyes Of course it didn't. You can't just wash your hair and expect it to look good. You need the right products, tools, and technique.
she begins combing through your tangled mess with a wide-tooth comb
I've had a rough day. I sit down as requested.
laughs Yeah, I can tell. You look like you just woke up from a week-long nap.
Narrows my eyes as I continue to run fingers through your hair.
How long has it been since you last washed this mop?
