Right on!
Frame control is very important during the haircut conversation, she will probably shit test you a couple of times depending on how hot she thinks she is and how much she got hit on by customers that day.
As for the silence while she is working 3 hands, well she could just be really serious about her work or a bad multi-tasker. But once she saw that handsome man she just spent 20 minutes creating...oh she was more than INterested
Basically, the name of the game is to have her invest as much as possible in you in some way, and knock her out of her routine of drape-clip-cut-undrape. In getting her to create the haircut for you, she's invested a great deal of her creative energy in making you look good...for HER!
Some light game during the haircut will smooth the process along, but even AFCs can do this. You two just spent a good deal of time together, and she was doing something that was probably a lot more fun than anything else she had done that day. Plus she's rubbing her hands through your hair, there's bound to be a lot of incidental contact, and there's no awkwardness or buyer's remorse there should her breasts prop up against your shoulder when she leans in to check her handiwork because it's her job (or so she will rationalize later on).
Trust me on this, go get a haircut and if you think the girl is cute, let her create your haircut for you---but remember to control the frame. You "describe" the haircut, and approve of her understanding of your directions, when in reality she's the one who decided what kind of haircut would make you look best in her eyes.
