The best haircut ever?

I got my hair cut the other day. Something I actually don't do that often. It's a pretty dramatic change when I get around to doing it.

I've been to the high-end places in the Galleria to the average shops in the many strip malls around Houston. This time I went to a sports-themed shop.

These types of shops are mostly all alike - sports memorabilia on the wall, ESPN on the televisions...etc. And if you've ever seen the advertising for these places, they also promise cheerleader-like employees, which I have yet to see in the years I've been going there.

But this night was different. Not so much in terms of the employees - they were the norm. It was who came in at the end of my haircut. Two women in bikinis.

It seemed so odd that at first it did not register. In my mind to myself, "Hmmm...two girls in bikinis just walked in." Pause. Double take. "TWO GIRLS IN BIKINIS JUST WALKED IN!!!!"

I'm still not sure why this happened. They were supposedly asking to borrow something. What that was, we will never know. Then as soon as they entered, they were gone.

The guy at the cash registered assured me this has never happened before. But maybe this anomaly just gave them the best gimmick ever to fill the waiting room with customers. If they want to be true to their commercials at least. CONTACT: Leave me a Houston or Texas media news tip | COMMENT: Click to leave your thoughts on this post here
