Well I was going to

Well I was going to try to keep it a secret until I got home for Christmas but I can't. My 4:30 appointment was to go get my haircut at my friend Jim's house. We have a friend who is a hairdresser but who is currently working in a hit broadway musical. She came to the house and cut my hair and cut and colored Jim's in the kitchen. It was great fun. I couldn't help but feel like a true New Yorker. There I was with my own private hairdresser in the privacy of my friend's home. Apparently, this kind of arrangement is very common with the broadway crowd and their friends and somewhat illegal. Alot of actors are out of work stylists when they are in-work actors but they supplement their meager Broadway salaries with a little extra sidework and are pretty generous with helping out their friends. Plus, if you have ever had a stylist you really like, you don't want to start going to some stranger just because your favorite stylist has a job within her vocation.
