**Mo**

I need some help!  I am going to attempt to get my hair cut in my town but I have no idea how to say "layers" or "side bangs".  I realize I am taking a huge risk by going to get my hair done when I can't exactly communicate what I want, but I figured I would be adventurous and see what happens.  I can get by with my broken German fairly well now, but I don't really know "hair terms".  I planned to take a photo with me and hope for the best, but I figure if I could get those other two terms down it might help a bit. 

Oh, I am also going to attempt to get my eyebrows waxed, they are out of control and something needs to be done about them.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Hey lady,

    I'm really bad with that kind of stuff, because I never got my hair cut over there. I assume with a picture it should be ok.

    Augenbrauen wachsen = eyebrow waxing :)

  • Also bangs = pony like a horse.

    So maybe seitenpony for side bangs?

  • Ha!  That is so funny because I asked one of my co-workers if he knew and he said he thought it was pony or scheitel.  I guess I should have trusted him...he is gay, but then again he is also bald and wasn't too confident about it. 

    Thanks so much.  I hate going into a place and not at least trying to communicate in German, so this helps.  I'll definitely bring a picture and do a lot of hand gestures...I've pretty much perfected the broken German with crazy hand gestures by now!
