Everyone probably has seen the commercial where a women with long blond hair comes in for just a trim when another guy comes in to take over for the regular stylist and announces that he is going to give her a pixey cut...
How many of you think that the commercial would of been perfect if they actually showed him cutting her hair off?

Haven`t seen the commercial... whilst the ad may have made an attempt at humor, albeit, in poor taste, your notion of perfection is rather repugnant.

You think your face is handsome, your bod buff, right? Let`s say somebody had the ability -- and exercised that ability, without your permission -- to suddenly render you with what you considered to be an ugly face or a bad bod... and had to wait for 4, 5, 6 years for it to return to its prior "excellent" state. Unrealistic as it is, there`s your analogy. Now, do you see why your vision of perfection is not only unappealing, but downright creepy?

Dude, you`ve got unresolved power and control issues. I thank God you`re not a licensed cosmetologist.
