Has a hair stylist, one you liked and/or who worked wonders with your hair, ever suddenly disappeared from your life? If so, you might enjoy an essay about a couple of my own memorable experiences with hairstylists. “Hair Care Chronicles” is the title of the piece I wrote that was recently published by The Forge Literary Magazine. Both the essay and a short interview The Forge’s senior editor, Sommer Schafer, conducted with me can be found on their website.
The following is an excerpt from"Hair Care Chronicles"
I don’t remember her last name. Nor do I recall how I ended up at the hair salon where she worked in Cleveland Heights. What I do remember is that she went by “Lynette” (not her real name) and hailed from New Orleans. Some hair stylists you click with instantly, others over time, and still others never beyond the surface even while showing up to sit in their chair on the regular. I liked Lynette from the jump. Friendly, smart and hilariously blunt, she knew her way around the wayward kinks and curls adorning my head.
