\nThursday, midday<\/p>\n

Since I was a little girl I had realized that going to the hairdressers was something essential to the women living in Istanbul. In Finland we were used to cutting our hair by ourselves (I cut my friends’ hair, they cut mine ect), not to talk about the manicures and pedicures (what luxury!). So at the beginning of every summer my mother took me to the kuaf\u00f6r<\/i> in Selimiye and\u00a0 I could choose the style I wanted. For me it was more of a chance to experiment something that couldn’t be done at home so the results were various. Very entertaining.<\/p>\n

The sound of scissors clipping my hair was something that maked me feel just a bit pampered.
