I.  INTRODUCTION
+++++++++++++++++

I had purchased the 'official guide' along with my copy of Animal Crossing:
Wild World.  Upon reading through it I discovered that there was NO
explanation of the new Barber Shop/Hairstyle features beyond 'well, play with
it and you'll find out'.  Well, I don't know about you, but when I'm trying
to pay off my house I don't have 3,000 bells to spend each time until Harriet
gets it right.  After the first couple of experiments I discovered a pattern,
and this guide was born.

II.  QUESTIONS
+++++++++++++++

Shampoodle will appear inside Nookington's, the final upgrade to the department
store.  (Spend 200,000 Bells and have someone visit your town over Nintendo
Wi-Fi or DS to DS connections.  When they buy something from the shop it will
upgrade.)

When you enter Shampoodle and ask Harriet for a haircut, she will ask you a
set of questions.  The way you answer these questions will determine your
'style' and the haircut you get, as well as the color.  So here is a simple
