Chapter 3 - The winds of changes
It was Hogsmeade morning. This morning it was my turn to wake up Cissa in an annoying way. I jumped on top of her.
"Hey Cissa! How ´bout some SHOPPING?"
However Cissa didn't get irritated at all.
"Sure!" She turned her face from the pillow with excitement in her eyes.
We practically jumped into our clothes and jogged down to the great hall.
The train would leave Hogwarts at 10am. The clock was 9:30. I ate my breakfast in 4 minutes and the time after that felt like eternity. Finally after what seemed like a few hours Cissa stood up.
"Let's go girlfriend."
"I jumped up and galloped out of the hall."
"Seriously Crystal..." She tried to look pissed but there was a twinkle in her eyes.
We were the first ones to enter the train and the ride was short, about ten minutes.
We squeezed ourselves out of the train and studied the street and the mob walking on it for a moment.
"I think we should begin with your hair." The expert friend of mine pointed out.
"Right... We're not going to do anything extreme now are we?" I couldn't hide the frighten in my voice. I liked my hair. It just needed a little defining.
"No we're not Crystal. Unless of course you want to do something drastic?"
"No Merlin forbid... Just something to smooth it out... You know, silken it. Maybe change the colour a bit." I wanted Lily Evan's hair. I felt it deep inside.
"Do you think red would suit me?" I asked carefully.
"Naah, then you'd start looking like that Gryff know it all red head girl. She keeps hitting on James. Have you noticed?"
"Yeah! She's sure gonna get green of jealousy when he becomes mine... All mine."
"Okay you're started to scare me with those crazy comments of yours..." Cissa giggled. "Hair we said. Let's get moving eh?"
And we did. We soon reached a salon called The Skyline. It was the hottest one in Hogsmeade.
"How about we crash this place?" I asked. "You're the fashion expert after all."
"That's the place I'd say." She replied professionally.
We walked in the packed saloon and a gay looking wizard greeted us.
"Smells like teen spirit!" He cast us a wide smile and a chuckled at his own lame joke "Which of you witches is coming for the time of her life?"
"I am." I said politely. "I was thinking of doing something to give it a more appealing look, I want it kind of silky. Maybe I'll have some highlights too."
"Well I think we have a free space in here somewhere." He opened in a big black reservation book, put up a pair of humongous diamond glasses and started to flip through the outwritten pages.
"We have a free couple of hours in 2 minutes, then a woman called Evelyn can do your hair, is that okay?"
"Yeah, that's good." I replied. Cissa was flipping the pages of a fancy looking magazine, and suddenly she looked up with a wide smile.
"Hey Crystal come over!"
I went over to the magazine stall and peeked over her shoulder. I saw a picture of a woman with big blue eyes just like mine, and her hair was curly just like mine. It was silky and dark brown with some light brown highlights in it.
She smiled sweetly and winked so her long, black fake lashes hit her cheeks.
"See, that woman really looks like you Crystal. Do you like her hair?"
"Yeah, it's awesome. I think that would actually suit me."
"Yeah me too. Let's do it then shall we?"
And that moment a tall, pretty witch with blue sassy hair walked in and towards us.
"Hi gals! You want me to do something with your hair eh? Just come and sit in that chair" She pointed at a chair in the corner "And I'll be right back."
She came back and I showed her the picture from the magazine.
"Yes, that looks cool, and I think it would suit your face form, should we begin?"
I was a bit stressed but hit it off anyway.
She just cut my locks a bit so the curled ends became more 'corkscrew like', and then she put a lot of light highlights. At last she gave me some shampoo and balsam I should use to get my hair silky.
When I looked in the mirror afterwards I couldn't handle myself. Neither could Cissa.
"OH MY GOD CRYSTAAAL!" She laughed in excitement and jumped up and down very 'not Narcissa' style.
"It's the coolest huh?" I grinned at myself in the mirror.
"Totally. Now let's go shop, you need some underwear, these sport bras just make them even smaller..."
I cleared my throat loudly.
"Sorry." She added sheepishly. "Anyway, you need knickers, decent bras, cool accessories, make up, some nice clothes...yeah. That's about it!"
And we started shopping. First we visited 'Madame Diane's Finest Lady Undermentionables.'
There I bought some 'decent' bras, thongs which I had never tried, some boxers and ordinary briefs. Inside the store Madame Diane herself came to help us.
"Can I help you dears?" She asked with a fake smile.
"Yeah, she wants to find some cool kind of slutty looking bras, where can I find them?"
Madame Diane contracted her lips and blushed a bit.
She pointed a finger towards a corner with some stalls.
"Thank you Madame" Cissa said as if she had just asked the time.
The next shop we visited was The Treasure Chest of a Punk Queen. There we found some silver bracelets and necklaces with red diamonds, some huge sunglasses, nail polish, magical-makeup, (mascara, lip gloss, flawless-makeup, eyeliner, eye shadow etc...), and a lot of cool accessories.
I had never been in there, because I hardly ever wear accessories, I always either lose them somewhere or I break or spoil them at Quiddich practices.
Next we headed for tenths of clothing stores where I bought some pretty cool stuff. Many tight T-shirts in different colours with many different texts and pics, jeans, both tight and baggy, black baggy pants, tartar skirts with pins and chains. Some net-tights, sneakers, black boots, high heels sweaters and jumpers. And finally a jacket with a big picture of a pretty woman on the back.
When we finally got back to Hogwarts I was exhausted and my wallet was emptier than empty.
I jumped onto my bed, took of my shoes, changed quickly and crawled under my cold comforter. I fell asleep soon after.
Great? Horrible? Tell me please!
