Queen for a Day


“How do you want your hair to look, Lorraine?” my hot hairdresser asks me as he massages in volumizing product and leave-in conditioners, and as I inhale their aromatic loveliness. He hovers over me, since he is, after all, at least a whole foot taller than I am. As I look back at his reflection in the mirror, he is making faces at me in an attempt to make me laugh (as usual) and I say, “I just want full, pretty, sexy hair.” He laughs at me, because I sound ridiculous, probably, but also because he is an anomaly: a straight, good natured hairdresser with good looks to match, and as a man—he knows how to define sexy for himself. I don’t even need to explain to him what that would look like—he knows what wants sexy to look like. So sexy hair is exactly what I get—as he round brushes my hair, I notice he has sprayed something in my hair: the fragrance wafts through the air and I am intoxicated by the scent (about as intoxicated as I was in the shampoo bowls as I sat and had my hair shampooed and conditioned. If heaven is better than this, God is unbelievably good.)

When I say I want “sexy” hair, what I mean is, I want big, Bridgette Bardot-inspired hair; hair that is reminiscent of the same sexy film siren people have used as a fashion muse for decades. I'm talking about hair that attracts attention, hair that stops traffic, hair that looks one part naughty and one part lovely; hair that prompts men to think of thoughts like Victoria’s Secret lingerie catalogs, sex hair, and hair you want to run your fingers through (or whatever your heart desires.)



As my hairdresser finishes drying my hair, I open my eyes to see a new and improved LC. I have better-than-sex hair, thanks to my new volumizer by TIGI, Queen for a Day, which, after sprayed through my strands, plumps up my hair and gives me the same Bridgette Bardot hair that has been the fantasy of men for generation after generation. I am now confident, polished, and ready to hit the pavement in 4 inch heels and enviable locks. One stylist, blow dryer, TIGI Queen for a Day, and a round brush later, I am transformed; I have swag in my step. There’s nothing sexier than that.

To purchase "Queen for a Day" from TIGI, or for sexy hair of your own, visit San Tan Village Toni & Guy (all of their stylists are amazing, but my family sees Crystal, Dani, Megan, and Lethan.) You can buy products from the entire TIGI collection there, and they have just about the friendliest staff in town. To make an appointment, call: 480-812-1955.
