English Japanese <Pronunciation>
Jack:
(Beautician)		 Hello, Mary! Long time no see!
How have you been?
Mary: Hi Jack. I'm fine.
How long has it been?
A half year?
Jack: How would like your hair today?
Mary: I let my hair grow long, so leave it at shoulder length in back. And take about two centimeters (an inch) off my bangs.
Jack:

I remember, you tried really short hair last time, didn't you?
You tried changing your whole image.
You look good in short hair, too, but did you get tired?
Mary:

Yes, thank you.  My husband liked that. But I want to be my hair long because it's getting cold.
Jack: OK.  How about your hair color?  Would you like to dye?
Mary:

No thanks.
I will dye next time, but I'm thinking of a straight perm instead.

Jack: Yes, Madam.
Mary: Does my hair get damaged in a straight perm?
Jack: Right, I think you should do treatment.
Mary: Do you have any recommended treatment?
Jack:

Yes, we do!  Our treatment is
very popular with the other customers. Would you like to try it?
Mary: Yes, please.  I will buy one bottle later.
Jack: Yah, Mary. Hisashiburi-da-ne. Genki datta?
