can i ask you guys a silly question?? cos i've actually been thinking about this issue over the last couple of weeks. i usually go to a local hairdressers and have been going there for about 3 years. i love the girl that does my hair but no one else at the salon is very good. (i know this cos when she's been away in the past have gone to other girls and not been happy). the problem is, she is leaving to go overseas soon. i've asked around my friends to get a recommendation for a good hairdresser to change to. they all reckon there's no one good local at all, and all go to salons in the city. if i go somewhere in the city, it means i'll have to take my baby (once its born) with me as it is over an hours drive away. do any of you guys take your baby with you?? i don't want to annoy other clients or the hairdresser to dread me coming because of my crying baby, as i know some city salons can be a bit 'hoighty toity' about these things iykwim?? i'm pretty sure at the local salon they wouldn't mind as it's just a small family business and they are all really friendly, most with their own children etc. also it would't be such a big deal for my baby as it's only 5 minutes drive away so it wouldn't be such a long day for the bub. i'm not really sure what to do...i want to look good but just don't think i'm gonna be able to put in the extra ordeal of going to the city with the new bub. sorry to hijack the thread!!! just thought i'd ask as it's been on my mind, thanks gracie xox
