Picture of Alexandrielle's gown 👆👆
After filling our stomachs, Jane and I headed to a famous beauty salon just down the street. When I was a kid, mom would always take me here to beauty-up for ocassions. She only cares about looks but I care about personality. Sometimes I wonder, am I even their daughter?
The bell chimed as Jane and I entered. "Aaah...Alexandrielle my dear. So good to see you again after five lifetimes" David, the manager and also the lead stylist greeted me with a hug. He is gay and he is a very kind...gay.
"I missed the Fru-fru planet" I joked while motioning the place.
The place is decorated in beautiful plastic roses of different colors and other plants I don't know. The walls are all painted in white with posters of models, hair styles, and their specialties. As far as I remember, the salon has four chambers. The hair treatment and style chamber, the make-up and beauty chamber, the spa chamber, and the manicure and pedicure chamber. No wonder they are famous and rich. They also perform great jobs.
He chuckled "Always the same. Anyway, how can I help you? It's a wonder you came here by yourself, considering the fact that you don't beautify yourself much" he commented.
"Well...there's this ocassion and I don't want to be with mom at the moment so...I brought my friend instead" I said with a shrug.
"Aahh...girl time is it? What time are you needed?" He asked.
"It will be seven this evening" I said and he excitedly clapped his hands.
"Get ready ladies, because we are going to make you more beautiful than a princess" he announced as he ushered us to the hair treatment and style chamber. The place is filled with mirrors and an area is secluded for hair rinsing, hot oils and whatnot. While another area is for hair styling along with the tools and all. There are even some posters for costumer choices.
"OK...I shall take care of your hairs, beauties before proceeding to style it. Would that be alright?" He asked us, excited as ever.
"Wouldn't that add to the payment?" Jane softly asked as she shyly look around the room. This must be her first time.
"Well...because Belle-beauty here decides to beautify today, it'll be my treat for the hair treatment." He announced us with a kind smile.
See? I told you he is kind.
Jane is still quite uncertain. "And besides," David continued. "This seems to be your first time. Don't worry. It'll be my treat. Beauties like you are worth treating" he said as he ushered us to the hair rinsing area.
"Belle-beauty?" She asked me and I smiled.
"He's been calling me that since the third time mom took me here" I informed her.
"Oh" is all said before the hair treatment started.
*****
"I swear he looked like a penguin that time!" We all laughed as David kept on telling us stories about his ridiculous costumer who thinks she's so pretty when she looks like a pig that is walking like a penguin. Who wouldn't laugh at that?
We're currently having pedicure and Jane is coping up well. It's quite hard assuring her during the hair treatment and the workers seem to have problem with her dry and greasy hair. But once done, I thought Cinderella herself came alive.
Her dry greasy blonde hair became straight with a light curl in the tip and is now shiny and smooth. The sky blue shade that she chose as her nail color is perfectly combined for her dress. I couldn't wait to see her dressed up.
Four hours and fifteen minutes later...
When will I stop counting time?
We are already ready to go. Jane is dressed in her sky blue gown that is bouncy with creamy pink spaghetti straps lining it. It is sparkly with different shades of sky blue gems outlining the upper part. Her long blonde hair is tied up with braid spiraling and the few strands that fell to her face is beautifully curled. Her eyebrows are bladed and beautifully arched and fixed. She's wearing a slightly red lipstick that makes her emerald green eyes stand out. David tried making her use colored heels like white, blue, sky blue...but it seems off sense and he settled in a glass one.
Now she really looks like Cinderella.
How about me?
Well...I am wearing my pink gown accompanied with a matching strap heels. My raven black hair is now dyed in dark-brown almost black, matching my dark-brown eyes. David said if my hair is exposed in any kind of light, it looks like brown which is cool. My face is not changed. David didn't even apply much make-up to me, saying I'm already beautiful as I am. He just added a little foundation, masscara, eyeliner, shadowy eye shadow, a light pink blush, and a cherry lipstick.
"You guys look like real life princesses" one of the workers said as they all beamed in proudness of their work.
"Time for the ball!"
AN: Hopefully I described accurately. Did I? I'm not really good at describing things...only people so sorry if I suck at it.
Anyway, how do you like the story so far? Is it boring? I guess it is. School days are already done in our country so that means...I can write more often. I really don't have much to do in my life anyways.
Stay in tune guys.
