(In Cheryl’s apartment, Cheryl, Marie, and Bob discuss personal appearance.)
Marie:
Cheryl, your hair looks gorgeous.
Cheryl: Thank
you! I have a new shampoo— Bright ‘n
Clean.
Marie: I’d
like to try it. Did you find it at the drugstore?
Cheryl:
No, I bought it at my salon on Friday. I’ll pick some up for you next time I’m there.
Marie: Great,
thanks!
Cheryl: Would
you like some too, Bob?
Bob: I have shampoo, thanks.
Cheryl: But
mine will make your hair softer and cleaner-smelling.
Bob: Uh,
thanks, but no thanks.
Marie: Come
on, Bob, don’t you care about how you look?
Bob: Of
course I do. I shampoo, shower, and shave every day.
Marie: That’s
all?
Bob: Is there
more to do?
Marie:
Don’t you use any skin care products—
body lotion or skin cream?
Bob: No.
Should I?
Marie:
If you want your skin to stay young and healthy. Do you use any conditioner?
Bob: That’s
for women.
Cheryl: Lots
of men use it, too.
Bob: Really?
Marie: Sure.
Women like men who take care of their appearance.
Bob:
Really? OK. Well, what else should I do? You don’t want me to wear makeup, do you? Lipstick, mascara, eye shadow...
Cheryl:
No. But how about a manicure? I’m serious. Look at your nails. They’re a mess.
Bob: Men get
manicures?
Marie: Many do,
yes.
Cheryl: We
can give you one right here.
Bob: Really?
Cheryl: Piece
of cake.
Bob:
Well...OK.
Cheryl:
Great. Then we can talk about your haircut, facial, and face-lift.
Bob: What?
