Singing with the 'kapper'

I had a nice experience yesterday. I was at the hairdresser trying to freshen up my look a bit.

(Before I looked like a 10-ager, and now I looked 7-ager...huehehe.... )
Yes, I am a child-like adult who sometimes display an elegant lady-look for some certain potential markets...huehehe....

The hairdresser was funny and very cheerful. She didn't mind to speak English, but I asked her to speak Dutch to test my almost-thirty years old memory...huehehehe...

Her name was Glorianne. She was a man-made-curled brunette, and she looked attractive. She gave me two hair magazines to find out how I would like my hair to be cut.
After I told her that I wanted to look 7-ager, then she started to cut my hair here and there.

And then the radio started singing Lenny Kravits':

So many tears i've cried
So much pain iside
But baby it ain't over 'til it's over
So many years we've tried
To keep our love alive
But baby it ain't over 'till it's over


Of course, my music senses couldn't stay quiet.
I started humming,"....Hmhmhmhmmm...Dadadadada....."

Then she smiled, and said that if she also started singing, all the clients would disappear, and her boss would kick her ass...huehehehe...

I asked her to try...

And then, there we started a duet:

So many tears i've cried
So much pain iside
But baby it ain't over 'til it's over

And we laughed, huahahahaha....

On the contrary of what she thought, she had a reasonably nice voice. She hit the notes correctly. But I think we created inequality among us and other clients and hairdressers because they were quiet, but we were far from that....huehhehehehe..

After she finsihed, she told me "to sing my way out...". Then I paid the cost, although I didn't sing my way out as she told me at the end...But indeed she had made me smile and laugh.

That was my first experience singing together with a 'kapper' (hairdresser), and you know what , it was jolly good!!
