HAIR-DRESSER

Specialty Definition: HAIR-DRESSER

DomainDefinition

19th Century Satire

A linguist whose position in life enables him to do his head-work with his hands. Source: Foolish Dictionary, 1904.

Dream Interpretation

Should you visit a hair-dresser in your dreams, you will be connected with a sensation caused by the indiscretion of a good looking woman. To a woman, this dream means a family disturbance and well merited censures.
For a woman to dream of having her hair colored, she will narrowly escape the scorn of society, as enemies will seek to blight her reputation. To have her hair dressed, denotes that she will run after frivolous things, and use any means to bend people to her wishes. Source: Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted ....
