Liquid Metal Peroxide

Winter has arrived for a treatment and later makes a grand entrance at the hairdressers. At home,forged metal, molten metal ,blacksmith hammering a horseshoe. Quicksilver mercury smooth metal etched and inlayed with black enamel Straw bale for pillows, candles for lighting illuminating dried sage fumes. Family crest on metal armour , heavy metal armour etched with all over design. Clip-clop , clip-clop your chariot has arrived with footman unrolling the steps. We're off to lunch at the hog's breath cafe, the smell of burgers is over- whelming! Just a small bite, that will do , no need to wolf it , the puppy can have the rest. Today is our hairdressing day and many small swatches are presented. Fingers running warm water through reclining hair start a scalp massage. Swishing fabrics, clicking heels, strong musk perfume , Madame has Arrived! This year Winter wants to make a strong impression...Platinum Blonde! Thin as a whistle, pale make-up, fluffy white sheepskin collar and cuffs. With just a small dash of colour ..A chunky red jewel sparkling in silver.
