Had too much Old Monk Rum on the beach one year...and let one of the girls from the shack bleach some streaks on my hair...while still on the beach! Now.....I'm usually extremely fussy about my hair...Vidal Sassoon, Toni & Guy ....here I was...sat on sunbed in bikini with towel around my shoulders while she made a paste of the bleach (found out later from sister in law who convinced me I should have them done...but later admitted she wouldn't!...that they used this sort of paste bleach in hairdressers YEARS ago!)....put about 3 big streaks in my hair....put tin foil round each section and left me to 'bake' in the Goan sun! Then rinsed it off with just a bowl of water while I was still on sunbed! They actually turned out ok- even though I got some very odd stares by other tourists as they walked the shoreline! :lol:

sorry I think you are crazy absolutley crazy to let the women of Goa bleach your hair, I have visions of them crowding around you on your sunbed mixing Jolen up in an old clay pot :shock:

please go and have it done in a UK hair salon, bleaching hair is not to be taken lightly (no pun intended).

It costs a tenner in the uk as a model at toni and guy, surely you are not THAT tight?

Ha ha! No...not tight....as I said...too much Old Monk Rum and seemed like a good idea... at the time!.......and no....wasn't 'surrounded' by inquisitive goan women and hawkers. She had just come back from Bahrain herself and had streaked most of her own brothers hair...they ran the shack. I must admit if I was having it done 'properly' certainly wouldn't wait until I got to India to have it done! I recall once having a massage in a 'beauty' salon...afterwards they washed our hair and attempted to dry it! Now...think about it...they are used to long straight hair....whereas at the time we had shortish hair. We had to take the hairdryer from them and finish 'styling' it ourselves...before going back to our room to re-wash it etc! It was an experience though! :lol:

There are some very good hairdressing slaons in the North of Goa. I go to one in Panjim called Snips. Its a little more expensive than some of the others but is very good. They do anything you want and I have heard very good things. There are also a couple in Calangute where I live and have never had any problems
