I was at the hairdresser today and a lady I knew came in, we said hello and carried on with our appointments. At the end of my appointment, after I'd paid I went over and said hello and hoped she was having a lovely haircut. I don't see her very often and I like her.
The hairdresser cutting used to be my hairdresser but she had a mat leave and I ended up staying with the hairdresser I was passed to. It was simply because I like them both and I didn't know the 1st hairdresser's new schedule. 1st hairdresser has been short with me couple of times I've been in. She won't even look at me and when I crossed the salon to get my phone she was walking the other way and put her hands up to block herself from me.
Anyway, I said to the lady I know, "Aww 1st hairdresser always does such a lovely job." Hairdresser shouted, "What?!" at me with such a look of venom. I repeated myself. She said nothing and the other woman said, "Have a nice weekend", so firmly it meant I was dismissed.
I've been thinking about it all day. Should I not have approached them? Why did she shout at me? Now I'm crying and worrying that they think I'm weird and awful. I was just trying to be nice. I don't see many people, being on my own and having no family so I love to say hello. Maybe I was interrupting. Should I go in on Tuesday and apologise?
