She was walking toward the beauty shop when Shay came out the door moving fast. The first thing Jill noticed was Shay’s hair and how it appeared really big. As Shay drew closer, Jill realized she looked like she was wearing a mask with big blue streaks over the eyes and giant red pouty lips. “What happened to you?” Jill asked in shock. “I’m not sure, ” Shay said, looking just as stunned. “One minute, I was reading a magazine, and the next, two women that looked like Dolly Parton descended on me like vultures. They started putting stuff on my face, then they did all kinds of things to my hair.” Anne walked out of the shop next; her Napoleon hat ’do rode higher than ever. Ella followed with her little red hair ball reinflated. “Doesn’t Shay just look beautiful?” Ella chirped. She looked like a hooker who’d just survived a wind tunnel, but Jill nodded and tried to smile. .Robin Alexander
About This Quote
The idea of a beauty shop isn’t bad; we all need to look good and feel good. The problem is that Shay and Anne both feel like they’ve been put through a beauty clinic. When Shay wakes up in the morning, she feels as if she’s been drugged and she’s supposed to be the one who has the great looking face as both Jill and Ella agree that it looks as if Shay has just had a face lift. The fact that she is constantly being called beautiful really grinds her gears and other than constantly nodding to show you respect, Shay’s not sure what to do. The number one way we see people get their confidence back is by using their power to stand up for themselves and take control of their lives again.
