Icy I'm impressed too.

It's funny how at some places it's just not that easy to complain, and I agree, the hairdressers is one such place. Maybe because it's as if their creative creations are being rejected! But it's your hair after all.

I had a look at the pictures of those moguls and you have my full admiration, Icy. It looks thrilling. Need I say that I completely failed when I tried skiing!

Second first (iyswim) I recently ski-ed the Swiss Wall for the first time. One of the great ski runs, one kilometre of very, very steep moguls Swiss Wall and I have been trying to work up the courage for years. I feel great about that one. Not as scary as complaining at the hairdressers.

I went back to the hairdressers because I was so unhappy with the cut and highlights I had earlier this week. First time I have ever dared do that!
(They were great, didn't make a drama of it, senior stylists redid the colour and sorted out the cut so it no longer looks like a nasty beige wig). Be brave!

Waxing - painful? Your'e being very polite about it wink when I had my eyebrows waxed (I believed tweezing was too painful hmm ), I'm ashamed to say I let a few expletives out!

I was wondering what other Gnetters have recently done for the very first time.

I've just had my upper lip waxed for the very first time in my life.

Painful or what?
