Heads up, this one is considerably older than the other works in this story and consequently the first...of course I see many areas of improvement but I don't want to change it up too much.

The Beauty Parlour:

Chessie was your average blonde teenager; a popular cheerleader. Perky, pretty and dumb.

It wasn't unlike her at all when she went to the spa across the street.

She hadn't been there before but she was sure it was open because of the big fancy light-up sign that said Pretty's .

Well, at least it wasn't unlike her to go to spas.

She sat on her porch leaning against the railing waiting for a Woman to show up and take her over to the shop.

When the woman arrived she was vaguely tall and her nametag read Serene.

She said a quick hello before happily taking Chessie to the spa. Serene nudged her when they were inside. "Like it?" she asked.

Chessie was too taken aback to answer.

The place was beautiful with a seasonal Halloween atmosphere and a fountain flowing with coloured crimson water to go with the theme and even a skeleton in the corner.

Even without the decor the place was beautiful it had a nice spiralling staircase at the side and many mirrors along the wall there was even a waiting room with magazines and cozy chairs.

Serene held Chessie's shoulder kind of firmly and directed her to a long hallway behind the staircase with a lot of doors leading to rooms of course.

Serene explained what each room was for.

Chessie would have screamed with delight at all the different sessions and products they have but she just smiled widely too amazed to even talk!

Finally, Serene guided her into the last room at the end of the hall and said that she was going to get one of the best services.

This one room was usually reserved for famous celebrities and heart-throbs that made all of the uglies jealous! Chessie felt honoured.

Serene kept her perky expression and grinning face.

She had a bad case of acne and a slight uni-brow which would make a customer confused as to why she would work at a beauty parlour.

She also had a huge lack of hair.

But who was Chessie to say anything...she was about to have the makeover of her life!

Another Woman just a few inches shorter than Serene walked in and nodded at Serene and then squealed at Chessie.

"So she's our canvas...? What a beauty but now we must make her...How do you say it...Perfect?"

she exclaimed, she had a strong Italian accent. She had very bushy eyebrows and not the world's prettiest features but she seemed like a kind woman.

Being a popular cheerleader Chessie would usually look down upon uglies like Felice Jones in her school.

Right now she didn't even say a single word, she was...Excited!

"Okay darling, we shall start immediately and get your whole face done before sundown, okay?" The Italian woman said. Her nametag read:

Fuchsia

"Fuchsia...? How's about we get started!" Serene squealed impatiently.

"I can see you're excited Serene...Trust me I feel the same way," Fuschia mumbled the last part.

Chessie felt...

...Excited!

They set their tools on the table.

Serene said they used organic products only, let's hope she was right.

Fuschia plugged something into the wall and Chessie just assumed it was a curling iron or a straightener.

Serene held a small silvery object covered in crimson...Whatever it was it looked used.

Hold on a sec...It was lipstick!

She had a huge smile on her face as she pulled it close to Chessie's mouth.

Chessie just smiled from excitement the whole time.

She dragged it along the curve of her bottom lip slowly.

The same crimson on the lipstick was now on her lips, It went beautifully with her red dress.

Now for the foundation! she thought as Fuschia opened the lid to a small circular box.

She took a fluffy brush and applied some of it on her face gently.

A tingly sensation coursed through her face.

"Feels nice right?" Serene asked. Feels nice? Was foundation was supposed to feel any way at all...?

Chessie's eyes were glued on the mirror...She looked like a whole new person!

"Next, we do... eyes!" Fushia dramatized.

Serene took something out of a hot bucket of water.

Um...Mascara?

They applied it right away on her eyes not to lose heat. Weird but okay.

At first, it was burning but then it cooled down.

"Last but not least!?" Serene exclaimed.

"Hair...!" Fuschia finished.

"Now have a look at Serene's hair, your's will match somewhat," Fuschia said.

Chessie was too busy staring at her own reflection to look at Serene.

Fushia took out the object that was plugged into the outlet and smiled.

She giggled a little plainly excited.

She brought the iron to Chessies full head of blond hair and made sure to get every single strand.

When she was done she stepped back and looked at Chessie's now bald head.

"DONE!!!" Serene and Fuscia both looked at each other happily.

Chessie was beyond words staring back at that new girl in the mirror.

She really was a whole new person.

Now, Felice Jones finally had some ugly competition.

She looked again at her new face.

Her lips were cut open in large slits both the top one and bottom one.

They were bled out until they turned pale.

There was acid on her face which was sinking into her pores and intoxicating.

Her eyes were burned out and left a nasty mush of flesh.

Her hair was shaved and there were burns on her head.

What a change.

Wanna know something better?

She was never even alive.

Even before she entered Pretty's.
