HAIRDRESSER
NO.
(pointing to Claire)
That is EXACTLY what she asked for.

FLEABAG
No it’s not. We want compensation.

HAIRDRESSER
Claire?

CLAIRE
I’ve got two important meetings and I look like a pencil.

HAIRDRESSER
NO. Don’t blame me for your bad choices. Hair isn’t everything.

FLEABAG
Wow.

HAIRDRESSER
What?

FLEABAG
Hair. Is. Everything. We wish it wasn’t so we could actually think about something else occasionally. But it is. It’s the difference between a good day and a bad day. We’re meant to think that it is a symbol of power, a symbol of fertility, some people are exploited for it and it pays your fucking bills. Hair is everything, Anthony.
