I saw this poster in the window of a local hairdresser (-37”47’21, 144”58’23), and had no idea what it is.

So I asked my friend Barbara, and got the following response:

I got as far as "Digital Revolution" and then I think "Now totally possible!" before the characters got too small for my untrained eyes to laboriously decode.

The things in the boxes are as follows (please bear in mind this is a slightly intoxicated translation): 1. "Volume saving voluminous perm." 2. Also short hair "setting" perm 3. Acid perm without hair damage 4. "Seramide / theramide (an English loan word I can't distiguish since I have no knowledge of hair dressing or chemistry and doesn't appear in my dictionary)" acid coating perm 5. Operation time reduced by 1/2 (this one is kind of funny because the word '½Ã¼ú' usually refers to surgery. I was unaware that it could be used in referece to hair styling as well). I can't really make out the words in the red box at the bottom (aside from the word "setting" written out in Korean and the big "OK" at the end). Next time I get my hair cut I'll ask the hairstylist about "seramide" as opposed to "theramide" and attempt to figure that nonsense out. ---- so there you go. -barbara
