บท 119: Sato Cuts His Hair 1
"Gray.. Can I please not cut my hair?" Sato used his puppy eyes to pacify Gray. 99 percent of the time, Gray would relent and go with the boy, but this time, he shook his head determinely.
"No, it is time to cut your hair. It has become far too long." Clearly Gray being the stronger man, pushed Sato towards the barber shop that he would always go to.
Since Gray's family was majority in business related fields, their decorum was one of their top priorities. Without good etiquette or appropriacy, their image would be ruined. In order to make their lives easier in the long run, the Tobion family had established their very own barber shop brand namely, PrestineCuts.
The barber shop, PrestineCuts was rated last year as the number one hair shop in the world. Boasting customers from around the world, they have opened over 200 shops around the world. Of course, these shops were strategically placed to benefit the Tobion family businesses, allowing them to not travel far to get a cleanup on their looks.
When Sato entered the shop gloomily, he couldn't help but be surprised by the design of the barbershop. The shop retained the olden days vintage look, overhung with warm lighting to ease their customers. It was rare nowadays to find a close replica to the olden days barber shop. In addition, the staff there greeted them politely as if they were just like Gray's housemaids and butlers.
"The boy over here would be getting a haircut." Gray sat down on the couch, nearest to the door. He requested for a person as he sat down. "Let Melvin cut his hair."
"Understood, Mr Tobion." The staff bowed to his customer and led Sato in respectfully. "This way sir. Take a seat as we call Mr. Melvin for you."
Sato could only smile back grimly. He was truly reluctant to cut his hair. In his opinion, his looks never really mattered. So long as he could survive and live sufficiently, he would not want to waste money cutting his hair. He had always cut his hair when it was too long, mainly his fringe. In the end, the uneveness of his hair was very evident, making Gray get flustered. He would not want his boyfriend to look like he was mistreated, much less messy in general.
When Melvin first came out of the back room, he first went to greet Gray and to receive instructions from him. In PrestineCuts, Melvin held absolute authority in this branch. Melvin was one of the top 10 hair stylists in the world. If anyone wanted to hire him to help style their hair, the fees required were astronomical.
Yet, Melvin was in fact the only person here that knew about Gray's real identity. After graduating from the most prestigious hair styling school, he was poached by the Tobion family to become one of the co-founder's of PrestineCuts. When Gray was 15, he became his personal hair stylist. Wherever Gray went in the world, he would follow along to help style and cut his hair. Since Gray settled in Country Z, Melvin became the manager of this branch.
Melvin realised that Gray wanted him to cut Sato's hair, to which he gladly accepted. When he came to see what kind of mess Gray had handed him, he almost cried out loud. What kind of monstrosity was sitting in front of him? For a world class stylist like him, he never had the chance to see such a bad state of hair before.
To make matters worse, after Melvin had a feel of Sato's hair, he gasped out loud, which Gray smirk in agreement. Sato's hair was not only messy, but had a very rough feel too. Clearly, Sato never used any high quality shampoo over the years.
"Mr. Gray, the hair from this young man is simply horrendous! I.. I do not know if I can save it at this point." Melvin talked about Sato's hair as if it was a live species. To him, the hair was basically a living and breathing organism. To see such a badly taken care hair, it was torturous for Melvin.
"I did not come here for you to give me bad news, Melvin. I want results." Gray usual disposition was put forth on Melvin. The hair stylist felt a chill from behind his back. He turned to bow to his young master.
"I apologise for previous harsh words. I will make sure to recover this young man's hair to normal."
Since young, Gray had acted this way in front of him. Normally, after spending enough time with someone, you would have more or less gotten used to their aura. However, as usual, when Gray gets angry or what he didn't want, his demeanour was too stifling.
Sato who was the victim of such an assault felt extremely guilty. Why was Gray so strict when it came to others? Not only that, it was directed at a hair stylist. To Sato, he didn't actually care about the state of his hair. Only Gray, who loved to touch and feel the boy's hair, would want it to be restored back to normal. So, was Gray actually doing it for himself or for Sato? This was a question that would never be answered to anyone.
Melvin swiftly began to direct his assistants to grab several different hair products. There were over ten different compounds that were placed on the side table by Melvin. It was incomprehensible to those that didn't know what was going on in the first place. When does a person ever need to use this many hair products?
Firstly, Melvin mixed two different hydration products together and applied it onto Sato's long hair. Sato's hair had long glorious locks that went down his neck. It was far too long for normal standards. Stroking downwards, Melvin applied all of it onto the boy's hair, not missing out anywhere. Even before he started to cut Sato's hair, it was cleaner and more comfortable for the customer to treat his hair first. Not only that, Melvin realised that there were many knots in Sato's hair that prevent him from combing the boy's hair down. He needed to get rid of that problem.
