A Look Forward
It wasn't uncommon for hair to be scorched by these hot tools until it was the texture of coarse wool. Nowadays, hair-care techniques are much gentler, and the reasons people choose to visit salons are diverse. These reasons include:
- They want to look great for a special occasion, like the prom, a wedding or a party.
- They want the same 'do as their favorite celebrity (who could forget Jennifer Aniston's choppy layers or Farrah Fawcett's feathered sides?).
- They want to change their look by perm-ing, coloring or straightening their tresses.
- They want to correct the damage caused by overprocessing done by amateurs (themselves included).
- They want to update their look (like eschewing the Jackie Kennedy bob they've worn since Jackie's husband was president).
- They want to look like a new person (like going from mousy brown to ravishing red).
