Scarlett fully agreed, “Yeah, they’re doing a great job,” to which Drew excitedly replied, “Oh my God, it’s an institution!”

“Um, I don’t think so, no,” said Scarlett hastily. “First of all, my brother had the same haircut… I just can’t. I don’t mean who chose this haircut as a stylish thing, like what hairdresser was, I’ll try it.”

“I mean, he’s a really nice guy, but the other time I was there, I had a different relationship… this time the timing was right,” she said. “I think he looked at me differently because I was available, it just had to be the right time.”
