Transcript

Rachel: Wow Catherine I hate my short set hair; it’s such a burden in my life. I wish I had long thick hair like yours.
Catherine: Well you know sometimes I feel like switching up, and having short hair but it’s kind of a risk. I don’t know.

Catherine and Rachel: If only I could have a new hairstyle!

Catherine: Wait! I totally know someone I could call to help us out.
Rachel: Really? How convenient.
Catherine: Hi. Can you come over ASAP? Thanks.
Hair Fairy: Hello. I’m the Hair Fairy.
Catherine: Whoa!
Rachel: The hair fairy.
Hair Fairy: That’s right I have connections. Tell me your greatest hair desires, and I’ll make it come true.
Catherine: Well, I want to try short hair.
Rachel: And I want to try long hair.
Hair Fairy: Done.

Catherine and Rachel: Oh my gosh we look great! Thank you hair fairy! Wu ha fu!
Hair Fairy: You’re welcome. Enjoy your hair.

Catherine: Let’s go and enjoy our new and improved lives.
Rachel: Yeah.

 

 

Rachel: Oh boy, now that I have a lot more hair it gets tangled a lot easier. It’s just a slight nut I’ll go brush it out.

I don’t know what to do with this.

Stranger One. Sir, if you do not stop playing with your kazoo, I’m going to freak out!
Catherine: Wait; you think I’m a boy?
Stranger One: Don’t talk back to me, Sonny.

 

 

Rachel: I think it’s a great time for some brunch, and what better than some quality waffles. Let me just grab this quality syrup . . .

Wait a sec! Oh man! it got all over my hair! This isn’t a great time . . . I gotta clean this up. Yes that works.

Catherine: So my next, I feel a little more chilly lately because I don’t have an abundance of hair to keep it warm. So I got this nifty scarf.
Stranger Two: Hey nice scarf dude!
Catherine: Oh geez!

 

 

Rachel: Oh, I can’t see! I can’t see! I can’t see!

I’m so done.

 

 

Catherine: Wow we! I’ve never had to use a comb to style my hair before.

Chad: Hey bro! Mind if I borrow that comb?
Catherine: Oh my gosh! Chad thinks I’m boy — this is so embarrassing. Uh, you can keep it.

Chad: Thanks.

 

 

Rachel: Are you kidding?

 

 

Salesperson: Hello sir. Would you like to buy this Guido gazpacho macho man cologne? It will make you smell even more manly than you already do.

 

 

Catherine: Rachel this was a huge mistake! We have to call the Hair Fairy to switch our hair back. Let’s go!

 

 

Catherine: Uh, hey, uh . . .
Hair Fairy: What?
Catherine: We kind of need our hair change back to how it was before; this was a big mistake.
Rachel: Mine is just too hard to deal with.
Catherine: Mine’s hideous!
Rachel: Yeah it is; that I didn’t want to say anything earlier, but it is SO bad. Anyway can you change it?
Catherine: Can you change it back?
Hair Fairy: Sorry, it’s permanent. Got to blast.
Catherine: Well I guess our hair stuck like this forever.
