\nDo you ever wonder what qualifies people to get their own reality shows? \u00a0\u00a0Going full \u201clights, camera, action!\u201d in certain hair salons would be some of the best entertainment a network could provide. \u00a0A small town in Salisbury, Md., shares some of its wild experiences in salon life.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Marissa Metcalf, co-owner of Edit Downtown Salon, can\u2019t get her laughter under control as she recounts one of her most memorable clients. \u00a0One day a new client named Linda sat down in Marissa\u2019s chair. \u00a0Linda was somewhere between mid and late 60s. \u00a0Linda promptly informed Marissa that she had gotten to the salon by test driving a vehicle. \u00a0Her daughter would never take her anywhere. \u00a0So she called the local dealership, told them that she was in the market for a vehicle but had no transportation, and they picked her up with the shuttle. \u00a0They allowed her to take a vehicle out for a spin, so she drove to the salon. \u00a0She also explained to her stylist that she had just spent the night in jail. \u00a0Her daughter had refused to take her to bingo, so Linda had called 911 32 times! Needless to say, the authorities were very unhappy with her and let her stew overnight in a cell.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Stephanie Heavner remembers an encounter with a 7-year-old boy. \u00a0\u201cHe moved around more than a 3-year-old child. \u00a0I had to threaten him and tell him the last child who didn’t sit still got his ear cut off,\u201d she laughed. \u00a0The child then asked her why she was taking so long, told her she was the worst \u201chaircutter\u201d in the world, and then told her she was fat. \u00a0Meanwhile, the boy\u2019s mother was sitting next to them not saying a word.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Sometimes salon guests say some off-the-wall things, making stylists wonder if Ashton Kutcher is going to pop out and yell \u201cyou\u2019ve been Punk\u2019d!\u201d \u00a0With the variety of people coming in and out of these establishments, there will always be a great story!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
