实战口语情景对话：Beauty Regiment 美容程序

Tom: Jess, you were talking before about getting your hair done.

汤姆：杰西，你之前说过理发的事情。

Jess: Every month, I have my hair done. Well, every four to six weeks I have my hair done. I have highlights which is one color. They take small strands of the hair and color that so overall it looks like it's more sunkissed, like it's bleached in the sun. But then I also get a low-light put through it, which is less harmful to the hair and gives more volume to the color if you have two colors, and that takes a long time to do. They wrap the hair they're going to color in foil and it takes about half an hour for it to take effect and during that time they put a big ... I don't know how to describe it really. It's like a big helmut which releases hot air onto your hair, which speed up the process of the coloring, so it's quite long and drawn out. I usually get through two or three magazines while that's happening. And then they wash out all of the color, and I have a treatment to protect the hair because the color often makes it dry, so the colors kinds of ... the treatments nourishing and moisturizing and they leave that on for about twenty minutes again so usually I fall asleep at that point, and then they'll rinse your hair and then cut it and style it so anything between two and a half and four hours, so much more complex and longer than you're half-an-hour short-back and sides. Yeah, I have a whole monthly beauty regime. Every month I also go and get my nails done and I have a manicure and a pedicure simultaneously to save time. And I love that. It always feels decedent to have one person working on your hands and another scrubbing away at your feet, and sometimes I'll have like a matching polish which always makes me feel good. What else do I have done every month? I try to go for a massage and a facial once a month. At the moment, I'm doing like a workout regime so I'm working out every day, so my muscles are aching a lot, especially when I stand up and sit down, so I'm going for special ... what's the word ... ayurvedic. I'm not sure what the right word is: special massage where they really push down on your muscles and then I have a facial afterwards. Yeah, I think that's about it. I think that's enough, no!

杰西：我每个月都要剪发。大概四周到六周的时间，我就要剪次发。我染发时会用高光，只使用一种颜色。理发师把小缕头发染上颜色，使头发整体看起来更耀眼，就像在太阳下漂白的一样。之后再用低光，如果用两种颜色，这样做对头发的伤害更小，而且使颜色看上去更饱满，这个过程需要很长时间。理发师用锡箔纸把要染色的头发包起来，染色过程需要半个小时，这段时间他们会把……其实我不太清楚要怎么形容。他们会在你头部上方放一个会释放出热气的大头盔一样的东西，来加速染色过程，所需时间很长。这段时间我通常能翻完两三本杂志。之后他们会把染色剂洗掉，对头发进行护理，因为染色会让头发很干，所以护理是给头发增加营养和水分，这个过程需要20分钟，那时我通常会睡着，之后理发师会帮你冲洗头发，然后修剪，通常整个过程需要两个半小时到四个小时，比你修剪盖式发型所需的半个小时要长得多。我每个月都要做美容服务。我每个月还要去做美甲，为了节省时间我会同时进行手部护理和足部护理。我非常喜欢这个。让一个人护理手，另一个人擦洗脚，这让我感觉很体面，有时我还会做美甲抛光，那一直让我感觉很好。我每个月还要做什么?我一个月会去按摩一次还有做一次面部护理。现在，我在执行运动计划，我每天都会去健身，所以我的肌肉非常疼，尤其是我站起来和坐下的时候特别疼，所以我要，那个词怎么说来着，我要做阿育吠陀按摩。我不太确定是不是这个词，这是一种特殊的按摩方式，按摩师会帮你按摩肌肉，然后给你做个面部护理。我想大概就是这样，就是这些!

Tom: Well, I don't envy all that time you spend! But you do look great.

汤姆：我并不羡慕你花的那些时间!不过你看上去的确非常漂亮。
