Part Three
CHAPTER 9
It was a couple days later when I decided to go to the popular hairdresser's salon in town. It was highly recommended by the waitress at the diner down the street from the Sheriff's office. The place was called Kurl Up & Dye, with the blades of a pair of scissors forming the letter "K". Normally I would cut my hair myself in the bathroom mirror using a pair of trimming scissors, but for once I wanted to get a little more involved in the activities of town. Plus, I could make contacts with people who knew the real scoop on the town's gossip and maybe even make a few new friends along the way.
It was early afternoon when I pulled up to the building in my squad car and noticed there were no other patrons in the salon. The hairdresser in a white smock was arranging shampoos and rinses in the window display. I got out of the car and went in to make an appointment. I stepped through the door and the woman turned to the ding dong of the door chime. "Hello there!" she smiled warmly. "May I help you?"
"Hello, I'm Mary Jane Putnam," I said, offering my hand to the woman. "I'd like to set an appointment for a styling."
The hairdresser smiled and accepted my handshake. She wasn't very tall -- in fact, only an inch or two shorter than myself. But everything else about her was big. Big chest, big lips, big hair. Kind of reminded me of Dolly Parton, but without the high, squeaky voice, thank God. "Pam Weldon," she said. "This is my place. And as you can see, I'm quite free right now. That is, if you're not on the clock."
I smiled. "As a matter of fact, I was about to take a late lunch, but it can wait." I pulled the CB off my belt and paged Joe at the office. I told him I would be taking lunch and would be at the salon on the corner if anything came up.
"First a date and now a new hairstyle," he grunted kiddingly. "I may have a genuine lady deputy on my hands yet."
"Be careful what you wish for," I laughed, signing off. "Okay," I nodded, laying the CB onto the front counter. "I'm all yours. Do to me what you will."
The lady hairdresser raised her eyebrows and gave a wry smile. "Now there's an offer I don't get every day!" She raised a fingernail to her lips and studied her newest patron for a moment. "First we'll start with a shampoo," she mused. "Then I'll have a better idea of what I have to work with." Pam gestured to a chair in the back of the salon by a wash basin on the wall. The chair was not the typical vinyl type, but more like a raised recliner of crushed velour. It was very comfortable to sit in, and I found myself relaxing under Miss Weldon's skillful fingers.
As Pam tenderly washed my hair, she made pleasant conversation by asking questions about me. Not in a probing manner, but in the casual, off-handed way that barbers and stylists are famous for. I talked about my mother passing away and about living here with my father. Quiet Springs certainly was different from the hustle and bustle of the big city of Raleigh. Eventually I was able to shift the conversation to how the town had changed since I had been gone. Pam told me all about the comings and goings, who was married, divorced, and who moved away.
"You sure know a lot about everyone in town," I remarked candidly.
The woman shrugged a shoulder. "People talk -- I listen."
"Know anything about that auto mechanic down at Henderson's Garage, Peter Groom?"
"Pete the Meat?" she snickered. "Hottest hot rod in town."
I was slightly taken aback. My mystery lover, a cunt-happy womanizer? "The man has a reputation, does he?"
"Honey," Pam sighed ruefully, "that young stud has porked just about every skirt within a fifty-mile radius."
"Including you?"
"Once," she admitted with a shrug of her shoulder.
"Any good?"
Pam leaned down to my ear and whispered, "Nicest piece of cock this girl has had in a long long time."
"Then why only once?" I probed.
Pam placed her hands on my shoulders and leaned close to my ear again. "Because," she whispered conspiratorially, "some women like to have other things between their legs besides a man." She slid her hands down my arms and gave them a squeeze just above the elbows. "If you know what I mean." Pam's lips lightly brushed against my earlobe.
"Hmmm," I murmured knowingly. "I get the picture." Son of a bitch, I thought. The fucking dyke hair stylist just came on to me. This damn town is too fucking much.
Pam released my arms and drew a line below my right breast with the tip of the styling brush. "What about you?" she mused, snipping and styling my new coif. "Which way do you swing?"
"Only with guys."
"Pity." She clipped and combed some more. "Such a waste."
"I wouldn't exactly say a waste," I chuckled to the mirror.
"Oh, are you getting some?" she leered. "A little Pete the Meat perhaps?"
"I'm not one to kiss and tell."
"But he is. I'm not surprised word hasn't gotten around town that you two are an item."
"We are not an item, and besides, Peter is not like that."
"If you say so." She clipped around my left ear. "I'm not much for pillow talk myself." She combed the back of my hair and snipped some more. "What happens in my bed, stays in my bed."
"Any good?" I asked.
"Who, me?"
"Yes."
"I haven't heard of any complaints." Pam's eyes flashed in the mirror. "Why, are you interested?"
"Just curious, that's all."
"Well, I've never left a partner wanting, if I must say so myself."
"Neither have I," I laughed at our reflection in the wall mirror.
"Now you piqued my interest, young lady."
I smiled to the mirror. "Something to dream about on those long winter nights."
Pam smirked and wrinkled her nose at me. "You're such a tease." She set her scissors and comb aside and removed the plastic drape from my neck. "All finished!"
I turned my head from side to side checking my new do in the mirror. The style was reminiscent of a perky Meg Ryan style, but with more lifts and tapering to give it a more modern look. It fit me perfectly. "Looks great," I nodded approvingly.
Pam stood behind me and fluffed the edges at the neckline. "I like it. Cute and just a little bit sassy."
"Just like me," I smiled.
"You were very trusting and cooperative," she grinned. Pam placed her hands on my shoulders and smiled at our reflections in the mirror. "I hope I get to work on you again real soon."
I couldn't tell if she was still coming on to me or not, so I thought I'd play her up a bit. I tilted my head and rubbed her fingers with my chin. "You have very talented hands," I said into the mirror. I saw her smile grow into a leer, as she cupped my chin with her hand, her other hand sliding gently to my cleavage. I closed my eyes as her hand tenderly caressed my chin and neck, her other rubbing my shoulder and chest.
"You're a very pretty girl," Pam breathed behind me.
She moved both hands to my neck and gently massaged my shoulders. "Oh, yes," I murmured softly. "That feels great."
I lolled my head to the side and she lowered her lips to my neck, kissing my ear and exposed nape. "I like you, Mary Jane," Pam murmured. "I like you a lot."
"Mmmm," I purred, reveling in the kneading of my neck muscles. "I like you too," I sighed.
