Can I Have An Appointment With Big Perm?

Hello all! I'm back! The school year is over and I'm glad I survived.  There were quite a few times I didn't think I would make it, but here we are...the end of June and I'm still here!  I also realized that the year was coming to a close and did not have a good tidbit to cap off this school year.  Well, let's just say Big Perm did not let me down and I couldn't let this story pass me by without sharing it with my loyal audience.  I hope you enjoy it. I did...I had to pull over on the side of the road to laugh about it.

Those of you who are familiar with my blog have read the "hair-riffic" stories of my beloved Big Perm.  Just to refresh your memory, he's gone from weaves, to relaxers, braids, and chinese bobs (just to name a few hairstyles).  I didn't think his "hair raising" issues could get any worse.  Well...tonight, I have a "hair-raising" tale to share with you all and it tops all the rest of my stories of Big Perm.  Just when I think I have heard it all, something new comes along and proves me wrong.

For most of this school year, Big Perm has maintained a normal haircut.  I figured his family had enough of humiliating him with these awful hairstyles and decided to give him a break.  Before I continue to the story, I figured I should give you a little more background on Big Perm.  It seems (and this is my theory) that Big Perm has some self-esteem issues.  He's short for his age.  Most of the kids in his 6th grade class are taller than him.  So, he may have a Napoleonic Complex.  He also does not like his hair texture.  I don't blame him for having these complexes, seeing as though his family feels the need to make him look like a mini Al Sharpton or make him Faizon's (Big Perm) stand-in for the Friday movies.  He's very obsessed with his hair and has taken to walking around the school with a hair brush and brushing his hair constantly (He wants wavy locks now.).  Now back to our story...

Well a few days ago, Big Perm decided to purchase a texturizer (It's basically a mild relaxer that loosens the natural curl pattern of the hair and produces easier manageability.). He waited until after dismissal and went into the boys' bathroom to apply this texturizer to his hair.  Yes...Big Perm was playing hair dresser in the boys' bathroom at school.  As he's ready to wash this chemical out of his hair, he realizes that his head cannot properly fit under the faucet (or in the sink) and he's having difficulty washing the texturizer out.  Big Perm's boys realize he's having trouble and they run to get the security guard for help.  The security guard gets the principal and now he/she is trying to help this kid wash out his texturizer.

I must say that I was and still am at a loss for words!  What in the world was this child thinking?!?!?!  And why was he doing it in the boys' bathroom at school?!?!?!  I guess it was a blessing that I left at dismissal and was not there to witness such craziness.  I know I would not have been able to contain myself, all professionalism would have gone out the window, and I would have literally laid out on the floor to laugh hysterically at this child.  I haven't stopped laughing since that day and everytime I see a box of texturizer, I relive the moment. This by far, is one of my most favorite Daley Laugh entries.  I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
