Changing Hairdressers!

Am I strange or do others find changing haridressers quite an ordeal? I have had to change several times in the last year and still don't feel confident and comfortable with my new one. I had a lovely hairdresser about 3 years ago and always felt well groomed and stylish with her cuts. Last year she left me to go back to uni to become a nurse! Good on her ofcourse we need nurses but that left me with the man that took over from her. Now he could certainly cut hair well but he smelled of smoke which was not so pleasant so I left that salon. I found another nice local salon run by a lovely girl and her cousin. I went there for about 6 months when the girl who cut my hair got very ill and could no longer work (that was sad). I then had her cousin cut my hair and was once again very happy, but after a year she left to have her first baby ((a girl - beautiful) but that left me again to start over with yet another. Then the very lovely English lass (lovely accent) who worked there became my hairdresser and she and I got on very well (good hair cut too) but would you believe it she tells me three months ago that she is going back to the UK for an extended family holiday! Oh how lovely for her but once again I was moved on. I was complaining to my close friend about my delema and she suggested her hairdresser. Well I have now had three cuts and so far so good, and she is friendly and chatty (ah I am going to be happy here I thought), and she even asked whether I would like try something new. I was there Friday last and very happy with the style cut, and guess what she said as we were making my next appointment? Yes another change, she is off on holidays OS and will not be back for 2 months (that is 2 hair cuts for me). I am now going to have to experience yet another hairdresser in that salon and am worried that I just might like the haircut she gives me more than the haircuts I have had from the girl who is on holidays!! I try to be a loyal client.
I have always loved going to the salon and chat away to someone who gets to know me, my family and most of the really personal stuff we tend to share with our hairdressers. Will have to start all over again - explain that I have a husband who isn't well and both my girls live in other states with my beautiful little grandsons and ofcourse sort out our political bent and who our favourite film star is and discuss the latest gossip mags etc. Oh it is like adopting a new family member when you have to get used to a new hairdresser. Does anyone else feel like me?
