*I went to cut my hair this evening.*
*It's actually my first time going there.*
*It's a place I see each time I go to get food at my favorite restaurant.*
*Where I normally cut my hair, the barber moved from there.*
*He left the city actually.*
*Got there, I was surprised that I was the only one there.*
*I mean, it's such a fancy place.*
*They had all these amazing tools.*
*The first mistake I made was NOT asking for the price of a haircut.*
*In my mind, it won't exceed N5,000.*
*I sat, they started doing their thing.*
*They also had a tattoo parlor.*
*Everything was just fascinating.*
*Took about 30 minutes and he was done.*
*He applied dye on the hair.*
*After he was done, I went to sit at the waiting area.*
*Admiring my hair and vibing to the trap music.*
*How my eyes and the price list jammed, I didn't know.*
*I looked closer and I saw,*
*Barbing and dye: N20,000.*
*I became really uncomfortable immediately.*
*To be sure and not pay attention to the list, I asked the barber.*
*He confirmed my bill is 20K.*
*First thought that came to my mind was,*
*"Emmanuel open this door and run away. They won't catch you"*
*I knew that was the devil.*
*Then, devil incarnate was telling me to pay.*
*My hands were shaking as I was opening my Opay.*
*I paid and left.*
*I was really bittered.*
*I was seriously regretting why i didn't run away.*
*To make matters worse, the rain that stopped earlier started again.*
*It wiped off some of the dye on my head.*
*I knew it was God punishing me for such financial mistake.*
*That's why he took His 40% from the hair.*
*Again, i should have ran away.*
