Oh, your hands are magic wands
snipping, coloring and styling my wild locks
into a face-framing masterpiece-
Swaggering out the door feeling beautiful (until I have to style it tomorrow)
After visiting my hair stylist today, I realized the gratitude I have for her and her talents. I decide to write an ode to her. I walk into the appointments feeling normal and always leave with a bit of swagger. The talent she has to style my hair is amazing to me. Honestly, I relish how it looks for the rest of the day because I know I will not be able to replicate the look in the morning. She is a beauty culturist for sure.

I hope you will print this out and give it to her! Be sure to include the image, because it is the perfect companion to your piece. Swagger is a great word to use here.

I have a hair stylist I adore and went to get a haircut yesterday! This was timely for me to read. Hair is such an important topic and rich with stories whenever I use it as a prompt. I often use the HAIR essay from Sandra Cisneros. Thank you for this today!

I can actually imagine how one would “Swagger” as you feel like a superstar after a pampering like that. The moment is to be savored as like you put it , it many not be replicated the following day.

Stylists are artists, some are magicians. As a guy with thinning hair, I wish I had hair to style.

I feel the same way about my stylist. I am totally inept and can never get my hair to look as good as she does. And yes, it does put some swag in my step.
