This is the final part. There will be a sequel, which I've been working on for a while.
There's still lots of my favourite fetishes in here, so if you don't enjoy that sort of thing, please find another story. Comments and feedback welcome...all characters are well over the age of 18.

Finally, on Saturday the 3rd of October, Marion got her way. She was my landlady and mistress, and I was her sub...She'd been telling me for weeks she wanted my hair cut short. I'd resisted.
At 9am on that crisp Autumn day I arrived at the Salon, so my part time lover Fay could do it. I was very nervous...
She noticed immediately, and being concerned about my well being, and to make things more private, took me upstairs to a room reserved for local celebs and clients with more money than sense. I was grateful for her thoughtfulness and as she closed the door, gave her a big hug and an affectionate kiss.
"Did you watch the movie then?" She asked, her infectious enthusiasm obvious.
"I fell asleep I'm afraid. I was exhausted..."
"Don't worry. I've uploaded it on to my tablet. Come and look at this."
I sat down in the plush leather chair facing the mirror. I'd never liked that particular aspect of going to the hairdresser's. I found the lights and large mirrors accentuated the worst of my features and diminished my best...I tried not to look at myself. My hair was in a scrunchie and pulled off my face, and my make up minimal so I wasn't much of a sight...
Fay propped up the tablet and hit the play button. I watched the transformation of a beautiful Hollywood star from a deliberately dowdy waitress to a beautiful energetic woman. It was schmaltz really, but the haircut was very well done. The only thing that worried me was that the transformation also involved a big colour change from mouse brown to a highlighted blonde...I'd never coloured my hair, was I ready to be a blonde?...
"Do you like it Jane?"
"It's super," I said, lying.
I was in turmoil knowing whether to go through with it. I steeled myself, knowing that Marion would definitely approve whatever I thought.
After a few moments hesitation I said, "Let's do it," forcing a smile.
Before I'd the opportunity to change my mind, Valerie appeared and took me off to get my hair washed. She was in a bubbly mood, her new boyfriend was clearly now a fixture...
She gabbled away about how successful her date had been after her visit to see Fay... I was happy for her. She spilt lots of beans about what'd happened, as she gently massaged my scalp...she'd clearly never had such intense orgasms before!
With my hair in a towel, Fay draped a white cape round me and stood behind me, smiling at me through the mirror.
"Before we start, I just want to tell you something Jane. There is a local kids Cancer Charity we can donate your hair to, right? So even if you hate what I do, some good is going to come of this OK?"
I felt my eyes begin to moisten...
Fay removed the towel and started coming my long hair out.
"Ready?"
"Yes."

She did it.
I made her cover the mirror so I couldn't watch...
It took the best part of three hours. I cried once, when I saw Fay put six long pony tails of hair, that moments earlier were mine, on the counter for the wig maker...
I played with my phone. We chatted. I told her the unexpurgated version of what had happened the previous day. She snipped away with her usual deftness.
Some of the time, I spent idly reaching round the cape to pick up tufts of hair that had fallen from the scissors.. The worst part was all the time spent having foils applied, it seemed to take forever, and I was impatient for it to be over.
When she'd finished, the cover was pulled off the mirror and I stared at a youngish woman with an elegant honey blonde pixie cut I didn't recognise...
"What do you think?" Fay said.
I stared at her through the mirror, her face was anxious...
"Ummm... it's a bit of a shock... but I think it's great," I said.
I lied.
I didn't know what to say...my first judgement to myself was it didn't suit me.
I reached up to flick the new long bang that lay across my forehead.
"Have a look at the back," Fay said, as she manipulated a hand mirror around.
It was very short. She'd used clippers around my neclkline and it was graduated. I reached behind and ran my fingers through the fuzz and up into the longer hair higher up. It felt weird. My neck felt exposed and vulnerable.
"If you don't like it this short, it'll grow back pretty quickly Jane," she said playing with the hair that was now cut around my ears. I'd never seen that much of my ears before. They looked delicate, exposed to the world.
"I'm sure I'll get to love it," I said, trying to be positive.
I stood up, and gave Fay a hug. "Thank you Fay, you're a genius."
Valerie appeared, took my credit card and gave me my bomber jacket. She was very complementary about how beautiful I looked.
I suppose I was a little lost standing there, waiting for her to come back. Fay was busy tidying up and I felt alone and awkward.
Fay must have noticed, as suddenly she came up behind me and wrapped her arms around me. She kissed and nuzzled my neck.
"I'd like to take you to bed right now, you look dead sexy," she whispered.
"I wish you would. I need some love," I said turning round and lightly kissing her on the lips."
"It's a date then. I'll see you later," she said beaming at me.
"Yes please. I'll be in all evening."
I picked up my bag, collected my credit card, and made my way downstairs.

I picked up some groceries in the supermarket. I felt that every one was looking at me, which of course they weren't. I wanted to get home and hide for a while. I prayed I wouldn't see anyone I knew.
Once safely locked in my flat, I made tea and then took it and myself off to the bathroom. I locked the door...
I stood and stared at myself...I don't know how long for... it was probably half an hour.
I went through a whole gamut of emotions - it felt ok to be emotional..
