Facial [A True Story]

ok this happened out of the ordinary. No i did not plan it but circumstances and events that were about to follow were just too coincidental and thus one would assume otherwise.

I had a facial this Saturday. LOL. Yes I did. I went to a saloon called “Green Trends” near my Aunt’s house in Chennai and asked for a haircut and a shave. The hair dresser obliged and after giving me a haircut, he started on the shaving part. As soon as he had the first go, he looked at me with bewilderment - “Sir, you beard is a bit rough. Do you shave twice?” I was confused - Shaved twice???? Me being the person I am inquired as to whether it was really rough and what I can do about it. The hair dresser sensing that this was a good sales oppurunity said that I should have a facial. Being rather amused but curious I said yes. Oh boy what a painful process just because it requires patience and I dont have a lot of that.

First they do some kind of face massage with some cream. Then they apply another cream and ask you to lay there for 20 minutes so that it dries off. Then they come and wipe that cream off and massage your face again. Then they apply something called a “patch” {I could be wrong} and this is supposed to be the main “thing”. Again i have to lie there for 20-30 minutes. By this time I had lost all patience and kept asking the folks to hurry and finish the process off. The last part was a bit scary and hurtful. They take a needle and start pricking on your nose. And since I kept twiching the lady stopped. Trust me that thing fucking hurts!!! Then they wash your face and well you are good as new or atleast think that way :) .

So conclusion - That will be my first and last facial try out.

  1. the needle is like acupuncture. Has nothing to do with the facial. Plus go to the Park Sheraton Hotel and they have a nice kind of pink powdery stuff. Put that into H2O till it becomes a paste and let it thicken like henna on a girl’s hand. Then wash off! Best part

  2. ha ha ha!
    its a face ‘pack’ by the way - not a ‘patch’!!!!!!!!!!
    plus its not a needle - its something that looks like a tweezer that they use to remove the blackheads and whiteheads on your face!
    ha ha ha!

  3. wow “sweet idiot” you seem to get facials very often to know all this. Are you from Chennai?

  4. It is good to try every thing one time or another.

    Well. I rather like to sit down and wait for 20 – 30 min when I get a chance like that. Most of the time those type of unexpected opportunities are only time we have to stay with ourselves (I mean without mobile phone on or talking to any one) in the busy life jumping form one task to another.

    Well. Now You know how painful it is to take out black heads form your nose. Think about other process like wax hair removal, etc.. Those ladies go though all the time. They have no complained about it. They do not stop in the middle like you does.
    Now this is my question. How the hell girls screen like nothing when they see a small cockroach but they don’t mind to have pins stick in to their nose?

  5. well to girls a cockroach is a disgusting, disease-ridden, pest. But wax for some is not painful and is quick…so me i would prefer the latter. I only wax my upper lip, but there are some who do the whole body and can read a few articles in the mean time…or just relax. I prefer threading, but I would not prefer to see a cockroach crawling on my toes. What would you say TK???

  6. I think there is one simple truth. Woman will go to any extreme if they want to bocome more attractive. That actually does not apply only to woman but for any body. When u want some thing really badly there is no barrier.
