Yesterday I had an enlightening conversation with a pretty young woman who had just returned from the beauty salon. “I just got these highlights,” she said. “But I can’t see them! Can you?”
I studied her head in the light for a moment and saw a few strands of caramel in her long, reddish-brown hair. “They’re subtle,” I replied, “but they’re there. Looks nice!”
“I paid a lot of money for this but I’m not happy. Do you think I should tell the hairdresser?”
