Waiting is boring. Lots of people take along a book to read but when I take my camera I am not bored....not at all.
I was waiting on Jose Marin to cut my hair. I've been going to Jose for......mmm, maybe 10 years. He is great with color and cuts. He has become my friend. I always feel like I've gone to my neighborhood beauty shop. I nearly always run into someone I know when I go. If I haven't seen someone in a few weeks, Jose can probably tell me whether they are in town or not.
Nothing important to write about. I just like the red chair in the image and the reflection in the mirror in the background.
It's YOU in the mirror. How clever! I feel the same way about Jose Marin. I remember and always chuckle the time I suggested letting my hair go grey.
ReplyDeleteI thought he was going to spin himself into the floor. The cursing in Spanish made me laugh out loud!
I love that fabric, a lot.
I love that story about Jose. Besides being a great stylist, he is a good man.
DeleteI must admit, I have never seen a chair like that in any barber shop where I was a customer. Certainly not in Melaque.
ReplyDeleteWell, the next time you are in SMA, you must have your hair styled by Jose. Ned had Jose cut his hair and he sat in that chair while he waited! LOL
DeleteWhat a great way to pass the time, Billie. I doubt that I will visit José ... I've nothing on the top of my head to style. :)
ReplyDeleteWell, you could stop in to photograph the "Red Chair." LOL
ReplyDeleteThe subject matter of your posts doesn't matter. Whatever you write about is enchanting and interesting, and your photos are as captivating as your subjects. It's ALWAYS fun to see/read a new post. Always. I love the way you see life, see the world, and report back about it/respond to it.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing.
Now. If you could share how I might find Jose so he could become my trusted stylist, I'd be in heaven.
And I agree with Babs - that red fabric is yum!
