Going for first salon set/style-any suggestions

BashfulBoy

As those of you who have read my posts in the past know, my girlfriend began to roll my hair (now about 8" below my collar) many months ago. We posted alot of messages here and got some really great feedback and suggestions. We were really encouraged by alot of writers here to go to a salon for a professional set/style experience, especially for updos that she was tyring out on me.
Well, I've finally mustered up the courage to give it a try. I'm going late tomorrow afternoon. I'm still pretty nervous about it. ( My girlfriend dubbed me Bashful Boy for a good reason). I've told the stylist that its for a Halloween party (thanks for that suggestion R . There really is no party, but thats just my shyness ruling my actions. I do want to experience this but am just to shy to come out and tell someone else that. So, the Halloween excuse seems to work. The stylist,on the phone, sounded great and thought it would be fun. I paln on surprising my girlfriend when she gets home from work, so I'll be at the salon alone.
I'm taling a picture with me of a style that I want to try ( thanks J.J. for e-mailing the updo pics).
Are there any other suggestions that anyone has to make this less stressful for me? I really can't believe that I'm doing this, but all of the encouragement we got here has really helped.
Anyway, since tomorrow afternoon is the big day (big hair day?) let me hear from you soon if you have any thoughts.
Thanks to all.

  Bashful Boy:
  It is 3:30 on sat so too late for advice. Sounds like a fun experience.
  On the 31st people are usually pretty open about costumes so I
  doubt if you'll get any ridicule (But I'm sure you'll get some looks.
  Give us a play by play of how it went. I'm sure you'll greatly enjoy
  the results with your girlfriend.
