    I'm Cussin - Keshia Webb

    Introduction

    I’m Cussin is the tales from behind the chair. The mental release sessions. I know that we were told to keep this information, but so that it doesn't kill me.

    I’m here to tell you how it really is behind the mind of a stylist. You won't have me headed to the loony bin behind your foolishness. Let me tell you what really is going on in my mind. Be sure, I’m Cussin.

    Who the Hell Sleeping Next to You?

    Are you a Stylist? Let me talk to you. Do you have that client or clients that gets a sew-in and keep it for eight months? Take it out, but don't comb it and put a wig cap on it to apply a quick weave to wear another six months? Now don't get me wrong I know we do things to preserve the money and time but somethings are terribly ridiculous. As a stylist we are good at what we do. We are not magicians I know we are all blessed with a gift of creativity, but creative skills in magic is not the same thing.

    At the time I rented a room in something like a salon mall. Able to create my own space I kept it very chic to keep my clients comfortable and very lady like. It’s time for my first client of the day a very distinguished young lady who is the general manager over a popular chain of restaurants comes in to get her hair done, I'm ready and prepared. I begin to examine it and just thought that this was gonna be some work. It didn't look good but I didn't want to judge. So to be safe I put on a cape, a mask and some gloves.

    I was prepared for the job then she turns around and says, What's wrong?

    So I answered, Not sure I'm working on it give me a minute. Then I ask, How long have you had this quick weave in?"

    She says, Oh since January.

    Mind you it's June. OK that explains it this is just a lot of dirt that has accumulated around the glue. I will just get this out and get you ready to go. You have a lot of new growth under here but I'll take care it. I love what I do so I knew I could handle the job ahead of me. So as I begin to take her hair out white particles begin to fly and I jump back. WTF? Don't forget this was glued to the head so I added the oil product to remove it and let it absorb. This wasn't normal dead skin and dirt I don't remember either knowing how to fly. In disbelief I continued to work. I thought that maybe it was just dirt you know because of the dead skin and dirt that accumulated over time. Again my professional side was trying to give her the benefit of the doubt. I finally get the quick weave off leaving the ponytail hair mold in place. Looking at it you can see it has grown into one big dread lock. You know the kind you find the homeless rockin’. Sooo...Where do I begin? How in the hell am I gonna comb this out? Not possible! I ain't gonna be able to do it! Trying not to hurt her feelings, it just ain't no way around it I turn her around and said, "We got to have a discussion. I can't save this. We got to cut it and you are going to have to start all over. I will try to save as much
