"Hair Salon" is a 2 minute viral video shot in a cinema verite style - intended to look like a real life moment that has been captured by someone's mobile phone.

Hairdresser

The hairdresser is the lead role. She is an experienced hairdresser who is sick and tired of grumpy clients who don't trust her expertise, or her hard work. She's completely fed up, and when her current client complains that her hair was cut too short, it's the straw that breaks the camel's back. Hairdresser loses her cool and throws a tantrum in the middle of the salon, and then in a fit of rage, hacks off a chunk of the client's hair before storming out.

Females, aged 25 to 35 from Queensland, Australia

Minimum Acting experience: No previous acting experience
Languages spoken: English

Hair Salon Client

This client has long hair. She loves her hair, and is adamant about trimming off as little as possible at each appointment. When she sees the hairdresser's work, she complains that it's too short, and antagonises the hairdresser. After a heated argument, the hairdresser hacks off the clients hair (don't worry, not your real hair), and the client is left to mourn the loss of her precious tresses.

The character is a bit of a princess. She demands her way, and whines when she doesn't get it.

Females, aged 18 to 30 from Queensland, Australia

Minimum Acting experience: No previous acting experience
Languages spoken: English
Hair length: Long

Any gender, aged 18 to 99 from Queensland, Australia

Minimum Acting experience: No previous acting experience
