Hairdressing

Lovely ladies weekly sets
Velcro rollers lace hair nets
Setting the worlds rights and wrongs
Whilst waiting for the curling tongs


Clients become friends over the years
They let you in  with laughter and tears
It’s like an episode of a weekly soap 
Gives us history - gives them hope


You hear about their ailments and foot clinics too
You take an interest over a brew
You keep an eye on the time, until the next
You haven't got any time for a rest!


No sooner as they’re out of that seat
The next ones in to meet and greet
Bringing in photos of Doris Day
It just wouldn’t suit her anyway


It may have been right 40 years gone by
But now their hairs gone thin and dry
Try to accommodate ~ because I’m fond
After all this is a hairbrush - not a wand!
