Bump Off at the Beauty Shop

Another year has gone by, making it ten years since the Loopey Lady Beauty Shop first opened its doors and cut the ceremonial ribbon as well as the first lock of hair. What a trying and tumultuous year this has been! Who would've guessed that our new location - a Victorian house in the old part of town - once belonged to an elderly spinster named Meara Unkinde, a woman who vowed on her deathbed to haunt the beauty shop and wreak havoc on the hair of all who enter here. Since then, we've had a few ghost sightings, though oddly enough, only on the days when one of our best customers, Kat E Cauldhart, has an appointment. Speaking of Kat, we're very excited that she has promised to wear her antique emerald necklace to our annual party.

And what a party it will be, as we celebrate another anniversary in the Loopey Lady Beauty Shop's reception room! We'll be serving drinks and goodies, as well as offering you the chance to try out a few of our new products and services. So come join us for the fun. See you there, ladies!

CHARACTERS

Faulleen Sizzorze 
is the lovely and lively owner of the Loopey Lady Beauty Shop. A savvy businesswoman who has survived the ups and downs of the Looslypes, Louisiana economy, she's managed to bring her business, as well as her customers hair, to new heights. Hardworking and headstrong, Faulleen is the queen of customer service, making sure her clients adore their do's. Hairdo's, that is.
Costume Suggestion: She dresses in the trendiest of fashions.

Gilda D. Nailson
is the Loopey Lady's manicurist, as well as an aspiring actress who has appeared in the local community theatre's production of Edgar Allen: a Poe-trait of Fright. Giddy, gregarious and grandiose, Gilda is the ultimate glamour girl and simply adores glitz.
Costume Suggestion: She wears anything with glitter, sequins or rhinestones.

Coco Coiffure
is a new girl in town, having moved into the decrepit old DeDaye home, which holds as much dust as it does ill-fated history. Mysterious, moody and often melodramatic, Coco is quick to change the subject when the questions are directed at her. And of course, she's a constant customer at the Loopey Lady Beauty Shop.
Costume Suggestion: She prefers clothing of eras gone by.

Barri Bouffant
is a beautiful and boisterous benefactor, a woman whose heart is as big as the hairdo atop her head. She is the founder of the "Let the Large Lizards Live" Society, for which she hosts a charity ball at her own mansion every year.
Costume Suggestion: Bubbly and bodacious, Barri is partial to anything big, including big jewelry, big dresses, big handbags, and of course, big bucks.

Teasanne Kombe
is a hair stylist at the Loopey Lady Beauty Shop. Sassy, stunning and sophisticated, Teasanne has studied the art of haute coiffure in such high fashion centers as Paris and Milan. She recently returned to the Loopey Lady Beauty Shop, the salon where she first learned to trim, tease and detangle.
Costume Suggestion: Teasanne wears nothing but the latest in dark-colored clothing.

Ruby Redhedd  
is a ravishing redhead as well as a reporter for the local Looslypes Herald. Flashy, famous and fearless, she's got the guts to go for the important exposés. Some say she has the total package: brains, ambition, and beauty, and that one day she'll be an anchor on a major network news station.
Costume Suggestion: Ruby is a regular at the Loopey Lady and wears only casual business attire.

Flo Z. Frizzee
is the shop's stylist who specializes in the art of perming. Big or small, she'll curl them all. Ingenious, elegant and slightly introverted, Flo is a whiz when it comes to chemical applications, and she's never afraid to try out the latest technology, all in the name of hair science.
Costume Suggestion: Often caught with her nose in a chemistry book, Flo dresses for comfort and not fashion.

Harriet Hilite
is the wife of the wealthiest doctor in town, and an active member of the local Gamma Gabba Gabba women's sorority. Refined, regal and ravishing, Harriet has an absolute gift for gossip and is considered a well-connected link in Looslype's grapevine.
Costume Suggestion: She is a weekly customer at the Loopey Lady, and wears only her finest jewelry wherever she goes.

All right, ladies . . . are you ready to pamper yourself? This is your party, have facials, do nails, do hair, but of course, have lots of fun with this game.

Costuming is very easy -- casual, casual, casual. In other words, you want to dress in your most comfortable attire!
