Here's To You, Mer

I just have to post this funny situation. I have a dear sister, who has a slight hair obsession. That word doesn't quite come close, but those of you who know her, understand. She is always on the look out for something to make her hair better, straighter, shinier, etc. So, when I have a suggestion, I pass it on. She and I are also hair tool freaks. We need to have something that works and works well, because if you're going to obsess, it has to be good! So, I buy or have her buy her hair tools at the beauty supply store so that she gets something really great that works well and at a bit of a discount. Well, let's just put it this way, she's cursed. She can go through 3 blowdryers and 2 flat irons, before I even go through one. I'm not sure why, since I use my tons more, on my clients and abuse the heck out of them. She just has bad luck with them. So, this last time she bought a blow dryer, I convinced her to spend the extra ( a lot!!) to get the one I use. It's worth it, I told her. I have had this blow dryer for like almost 3 years. I use it non-stop. It's basically the best blow dryer on the planet! So, she did it. This was like 7 months ago. Well, Friday I got a phone call from her. Shut up. It doesn't work. I think she is doomed. They do have a warranty on them, but in order to get them fixed or replaced, you have to send them in. Have you ever not had a blow dryer with naturally curly hair, that you round brush and flat iron every day??? Not good. Poor girl. I don't know what to tell her or do for her. This may not be funny or entertaining to anyone else, but when she called me, I couldn't stop laughing. Of all the people. So, what did I tell her to do? Go to walmart and buy the cheapest one they have. It'll probbably last you 10 years!
