Fair Ladies and Noble Gentlemen

I, RaPUNzel, have a HAIR-raising tale to SHEAR with you written by the Brothers TRIMM. When I was a young CURL, a jealous queen LOCKed me in a
tower. I was STRANDed at my SPLITS END truly a damsel in THESE
TRESSES! The queen thought it was a PERMANENT SOLUTION but, day after
day, knight after knight would try to climb the tower which was so tall
the FOLLICLE you! They would climb my braid and if they weren't that
handsome I would give them the BRUSH off! Gee, I wonder if that's where I
got my reputation for being such a big TEASE. One day, a handsome
knight named Prince Latherrinse tried to rescue me. He was HEAD &
SHOULDERS above the rest. I said: "COMB and SHAVE me!" The queen
found out about it and cut off my hair. And let me tell you Hell hath no
fury as a woman SHORNED! She'll have Hell TOUPEE because I am not
someone to TANGLE with. Prince Latherrinse WISPed me away and we got
married and had twins but, we didn't live happily ever after because he
placed too many CONDITIONERS on our marriage which was really CRIMPING
my STYLE. So, we PARTED ways and a custody battle ensued. It came down
to SPLITTING HAIRS (heirs) so he took one twin and I took the other.
So, now I don't date princes anymore because I don't want a LATHER RINSE
REPEAT (read the shampoo label). And I've gotten back to my ROOTS by
changing my hair from blonde to brown and this new color is to DYE for
after all, brunettes have more pun. Well, that's the long and short of
my HAIRY tale story. I bid you all a 'DO!
