Maybe it was good news or an extra Red Bull, but you're ridic either way.

Dear Prudence,

I went to my regular hairdresser today for a normal cut and blow dry. From the minute he greeted me, I thought, “This guy is ON SOMETHING.” He was far more exuberant, dramatic, talkative, and clumsy than normal. Plus he was a bit forgetful from moment to moment. I’ve never, in 25 years, seen him like that.

He gave me a good haircut—maybe a bit faster and shorter than normal, but all in all fine. And throughout it all I kept reminding myself that it was just hair…even if it wasn’t good, it would grow out. Alls well that ends well. Now I’m wondering if I should go back in and say something to him. Should I let him know that I noticed and am concerned?

    Maybe the LW is "on something" if they think it's appropriate to ask a business acquaintance what their problem is and why were they so hyper and "off" on ONE occasion.

    While hairdressers tend to be friendly business relationships, it still doesn't make them your social friend even when it has been 25 years.

    The LW should only mention something if this person's work begins to suffer.  Even then, they shouldn't ask him if he is on drugs or "what's going on in his life".  At best they could say something like, "I've noticed you've been more exciteable on my last few appointments.  Which isn't necessarily bad, but you've also had less attention to detail."  And then give examples of what she has been unhappy about and would like done better in the future.

    This is funny to me because one of my friends from high school does hair and a lot of blow. 

    I can promise you, LW, that you come into contact with people who are on something a lot more often than you realize. Anyway, this is none of your business. If he messes up your hair, address that. Otherwise, STFU.

    I don't think it's worth confronting him over one incident where you said your hair turned out pretty much fine and you weren't injured by him being careless or anything like that. If you're that uncomfortable now or in the future, then go someplace else to get your hair done.
