Suicide Haircut by K.Araniello

Transcript:

Victim: Hello, Katherine here again. I'm here to basically say possibly goodbye. At the moment I'm having my hair cut in preparation for my trip to Zurich. Um, I think it's important that one looks nice when they're about to exit the world. So, um, I'm just going to make my hair look nice. I also dyed it today, so it's more redder than it has been on my other film 'Valentine's Day'.Um. The trip isn't finalised yet. I need to book a boat or a plane, probably a boat, I'm not sure really yet how I'm going to get there, but I will, I will sort all of that out fairly soon. I think though fist it's important just to look nice, look presentable and to look good. I think one needs to look good when they're about to say their last goodbyes so to speak. So, um as you can see my hair is ...

Hairdresser: whistles and hums

Victim: being cut and um, it's very important this day for me because it's like the beginning of my, my sort of preparation, my image, the way I want to look when I have the media attention on me, paparazzi following me around with the cameras. Um, so yes, that's it. In a few, in possibly around an hour's time I think I'm going to look great. I'll get back to you and show you how I look.

Hairdresser: You going anywhere nice on holiday this year?

Victim: I'm going to Zurich.

Hairdresser: You're going to Zurich! Oh lovely!

Victim: Possibly um that's going to be my last holiday actually ever.

Hairdresser: Your last one, poor you. Why's it your last one? Can't you afford it no more?

Victim: It's not really about expense, it's really about it's going to be my last holiday because I'm going to go to this special place.

Hairdresser: Oh that's nice.

Victim: Yeah, it is. Mm hm.

Hairdresser: That's lovely, how long you going for?

Victim: Well once I get there I need to book into a hotel and then I need to find this place in Zurich where, I'll be going there and that will be my last destination. And once there I will swallow this solution and then that will be the end.
Hairdresser: Oh that's lovely. That's nice, that sounds nice.

Victim: Thank you. I'm really looking forward to it actually.

Hairdresser: Oh, I can imagine.

Victim: I won't be needing your services any longer.

Hairdresser: Why not? Have you found another hairdresser's in Zurich then?

Victim: Well no, it's just that this is my last haircut ever.

Hairdresser: Oh is it? You gonna grow it?

Victim: No, I'm not gonna grow it, it will probably stay pretty much the same length as it is now, in fact it will never grow again.

Hairdresser: Won't it?

Victim: No.

Hairdresser: Oh that's nice, that's nice.

Victim: Anyway, I'm gonna go now because this conversation is not really doing much for me. So I'm gonna say...

Hairdresser: Where you going?

Victim: I'm just gonna go because I need to go now.

Hairdresser: I haven't finished yet.

Victim: I mean

This hairdresser is so stupid. She hasn't inquired as to why her client is being videotaped? She hasn't listened to a word her client has said about ending her life..."That's nice," and the happy whistle drove me insane. Very sad statement depiction of human interaction...or, lack there of. I found myself wanting the hairdresser to finally get it and try to talk her out of doing it.

Actually, alot of people have gotten haircuts previous to suicide.

[TheMeltingSnowman]

Your videos are brilliant, I love your sense of humour. Keep 'em coming!

[genmama1955]

I watched your latest video before I watched this one, and I must say that your hair looks very nice. My son is an amature film maker, and this is just the type of video he would make. Because I'm used to watching his videos, I've noticed little details in your video that some people here are missing. Your vids are brill. 5 *
