$25 from the salon next to Woolies. No appointment necessary. Just sit and wait for a hairdresser to cut my straight white girl hair then I'm off to do my shopping.

I've been sitting here at one of those walk in places for 90 minutes and counting and this should set me back about 40 bucks. The wait never used to be so bad and I don't know how much I'd value my time at but I don't think I'll be doing this again.

Yeah it's because it's a Saturday. Busiest day of the week.

Yeh this is rather regrettable. There's a few things that I need to do so I should've just taken a day off and get it all done on a weekday.

Edit: there used to be more staff (six months or so ago) so even on the weekend it wasn't so bad but there's like two staff doing 14 people today.
