Hair washing and the salon
Eoin and Aisling visit a salon in Shenzhen because Eoin needs a haircut. The first difference they notice is the washing setup: a lie-down bed with an integrated basin rather than the upright chairs they know from the UK and Ireland. Eoin finds it relaxing, especially the thorough head massage. Aisling also enjoys the massage and says the water temperature is comfortable. The salon has a pleasant atmosphere and a window view that Eoin enjoys.
The haircut and cost
Eoin asks for a healthy trim and layered style. His ginger hair draws attention from the stylists, reminding him of a previous experience in Bali where people were curious about his hair color. The stylist works carefully and checks with him throughout the haircut to make sure the length and style are right. Eoin likes the precision and attention. The final result leaves him feeling refreshed. The full service, including wash, haircut and blow-dry, costs 58 yuan, approximately six pounds. Their visit lets them compare a familiar service with the setup and price at a Shenzhen salon. ## Service and communication
The stylist frequently checks that Eoin is happy with the haircut. Eoin asks for a healthy trim with layers, and the careful consultation helps him explain the style he wants. His ginger hair attracts the stylists’ attention, similar to an earlier haircut experience in Bali where people were curious about the color. Aisling also comments on the wash and the temperature of the water. The salon window offers a view during the appointment, and the pair describe the atmosphere as pleasant.
The complete visit includes a wash on the special bed, a head massage, the cut and a blow-dry. The price is 58 yuan, about six pounds, which Eoin and Aisling consider affordable compared with services at home.
