The narrator opens a new hair parlor and barbershop, blending traditional services with a touch of scandal for the time. The video follows the experience of the first customer, from an initial scalp and hair analysis to the selection of a trendy hairstyle from a collection of images, ending with a full treatment including washing, cutting, and styling.
My dearest Maggie, do you remember when I told you about this hair salon opened 15 years ago, in 1888?
Well, it has been on my mind for the last few months, and I have decided to create my very own hair parlor.
And guess what? Not only will I cut hair, but I will also offer barbershop services.
How shocking is that? As you can imagine, I am now surrounded by some kind of scandalous aura.
But I know that time will set things right, once people discover how delightful it is to be pampered.
I already have a few appointments planned, and my very first customer is about to come over this evening.
And I'm ready.
Good evening. Please come on in.
You are my very first appointment. You are here for a new hairstyle, right?
Lovely. Please have a seat, make yourself comfortable.
There, let me have a look at you.
Do you have an idea of what you'd like already?
Well, it will partly depend on the nature of your hair.
I will have a close look, and I will be able to guide you for the perfect hairstyle made for you and your hair type.
Lovely. Let's see.
I will give your hair a first brushing to get an idea of your hair's nature,
and then look for any dryness or any other aspect that could matter for the final hairstyle.
Let me see. The ends are split.
However, the hair looks quite healthy.
Now let's see if your hair is hydrated enough.
I'm going to have a look at your scalp.
So, there is a bit of dryness, but nothing that can't be fixed.
And that's the good news, we can do any hairstyle you'd like,
with or without curls, braids, volume, whatever you'd like.
You're not sure?
Alright then, I can show you some pictures so you may find inspiration.
I've been collecting all kinds of hairstyle pictures over the last months,
so I can offer my customers a large range of ideas.
Each of them at the forefront of fashion of course.
Oh you like curls? Lovely.
Hairstyles...
So...
What about this classic pompadour hairstyle?
With these voluminous waves, quite similar to my own hairstyle right now,
it is very popular.
There are not many curls involved, but I can add some on the forehead.
And the main shape is quite easy to do at home if you wish to style it again later.
What else do we have...
Yes, might be too modern.
There is this fashion magazine that was sent to me from Paris.
Let's have a look.
This one here is very pretty.
It has this old-fashioned look that may remind you of the beginning of the 19th century,
but with a more modern updo and a lot of daft curls on the forehead.
Too old-fashioned, right.
Ah, look at this one.
A lot of curls on the front and still these timeless waves on the top.
This could be a ball hairstyle with a feather, as well as an everyday style if you keep it simple.
I think these style curls would look very good on you.
What do you think? Lovely.
For this one we won't need to cut a lot of hair, just the split ends to make it a bit healthier,
and maybe a few strands here and there to get these lovely short curls on the forehead.
So that's decided.
Lovely. Let's wash your hair.
First of all, I'm going to put this towel around your shoulders so you won't get wet.
Here we go, just a little.
So now, I'm going to wash your hair with a castile soap, which is the best option for a dry scalp.
Just relax.
Here we go.
Is it warm enough? Very good.
Now let's use the soap.
Let's rinse the hair with clear water.
And now, let me dry your hair gently.
Now it is time to use a hair tonic.
As I said, there's a bit of dryness, so I'm going to massage your scalp with a specific lotion
that will help your hair stay silky and smooth.
Lovely.
This lotion contains rosemary oil, almond oil, burdock root and lavender oil.
This is a very good one, but that must not be used too often, or it may darken your hair.
Now it is time to comb your hair again, and start the cut.
I'm just going to snip away the damaged ends, so we can maintain your length.
And the ends, let's see for the short strands.
Simple but lovely.
Now, would you like me to perfume your hair before we start the final hair styling?
Lovely.
This was made with violet oil, and smells like a spring meadow on a sunny day.
Now I'm going to do your hair according to the hairstyle you chose,
so I'm going to prepare everything I need and heat the curling tongs on the stove.
Here we go.
So I'm going to take a strand, tease the hair so we can get volume,
and now I can arrange it and pin it.
Teasing the hair, trying to achieve these beautiful waves.
Lovely.
I'm going to curl these tiny strands on the forehead, like it's not too hot.
Let me see.
First one, hold still.
Just a few seconds.
Lovely.
Second one, carefully.
Last one, that's good.
It's beautiful.
But something is missing.
How about these ornamental combs?
These are so fashionable these days.
Sure.
Let's put one on each side, here, and on this side.
Lovely.
There's a mirror right here.
How do you like it?
Feel free to come back whenever you'd like,
and here is my card if you know some gentlemen who would like a bird tree.
Good night.
