I need to have a couple of pics for a work-related ID thingy and am sorely tempted to photo-shop a recently taken snap. It just dawned on me though, that my lovely hairdresser's provides us with massage therapy, facials, herbal skin treatments, manicures and pedicures - everything in fact. why on earth don't they employ a photographer to take a few pictures of us while we are looking relaxed and beautiful?-- po, Apr 05 2006 Visual Concepts http://www.visualconceptsky.com/hair salon and photoshoot [skinflaps, Apr 05 2006] nice job on hair and face http://www.haircafe...Photo%20Gallery.htm [xandram, Apr 06 2006] //why on earth don't they employ a photographer...?//It would probably be against the advice of their legal counsel. Evidence, y'know.
Besides, your passport photos would look very strange with cucumber slices in place of your lovely eyes.-- jurist, Apr 05 2006 :)
I use the word *beautiful* loosely, as you know.
funny, jurist - I wondered why the journey home was so strange, its those forgotten cucumber slices!
you sending me to Kentucky for a makeover, flaps?-- po, Apr 05 2006 //you sending me to Kentucky for a makeover, flaps?//
Nah, I'll just pop round with my camera, hood and that flash thing.I might write a song about that.
"Hey, you sending me to Ketucky?"
"Hey, you gonna do my hair?"
"You gonna pay the fare?"
"Tra, la, la ,la! etc, etc...-- skinflaps, Apr 05 2006 // to Ketucky //
But you'll sing it *Kentucky* right?-- jonthegeologist, Apr 05 2006 Yikes! Ketucky, Oio!, Viginia!...only in my world.Now wheres my drinking clock?-- skinflaps, Apr 05 2006 Great idea, especially with the card to hand over to the hairdressers the next time - perhaps it could include the specifications of your haircut printed on the back in some universally accepted international haircut format.-- zen_tom, Apr 05 2006 hmmmm a world time gentlemen please drinking clock, I like it.-- po, Apr 05 2006 oddly enough, I was at my hairdresser's last night. ugh.. have you ever seen the highlighting cap? so here I am in a tight, plastic cap, tied under my chin, with stands of blonde hair pulled through it..DON'T take my picuture like that!-- xandram, Apr 05 2006 They take pictures in tattoo parlors, I don't see why they can't take 'em in hair places. I know my wife would have far less anxiety if she had a good picture to take with her the next time around.
"I told her and told her and that fudge nugget still took off 1 1/8" instead of 1 1/16"! Now my hair's too short!" This from a woman with 3 feet of hair and me with nothing more than a shiny chrome dome. Go figure.-- NotTheSharpestSpoon, Apr 05 2006 Why not, just get your hair dressed up in a photo booth?-- skinflaps, Apr 05 2006 I went to Glamour Shots for pix for my husband for Christmas one year. 2 weeks and $125 later I had photos that didn't look anything like me. They didn't know my hair or personality well enough to doll me up in a suitable style. The approach you suggest [po] would be so much better. Less fuss.
and what [miasere] said.-- dentworth, Apr 05 2006 The sad truth here is that when you're at the passport control at the airport after a hectic long haul, you dont look anything like you look in the photo taken after hours of beauty therapy...its counter productive. You'll be ugly as sin by comparison. Better take a shitty photo, and look better in the flesh.-- shinobi, Apr 07 2006 you might have a point there.-- po, Apr 10 2006 random, halfbakery
