and no, not profession (oldest), sheesh!
If I'm in a big town, I can contract with a wizard to cast some spell. Great. Here's what I'd like to do.
1. I have a kerambit.

kerambit:This small, curved pull dagger has a metal loop at the base of its handle, allowing it to be secured with a pinky or worn on a string tied in the hair. While relatively small, the curved blade can create brutal wounds. Easily concealed (you gain a +2 bonus on Sleight of Hand checks made to conceal a kerambit on your body), it is a favorite weapon of ninja and assassins.
2. I would like to conceal it in my hair (or in a wig that I then attach to my scalp with alchemical glue), like as a ring on the end of a braid that's secretly a slip knot. Tug the little ring on the end (standard action), ta~da, I'm armed. I've no idea if there's any sort of scenario where my standard 'covered in weapons' clothing would be disallowed or inappropriate, I just believe in preparing for any eventuality.
3. The thing is, I haven't trained in Sleight of Hand at all, so presumably I can't conceal any weapons if I tried. I'd probably just end up stabbing myself in the eye. That's no good.
a) Can I buy the services of an expert (presumably a 'hairdresser of Norgorber') to hide the kerambit for me?
b) I could spend a prestige point and get '+4 on any skill check'. Presumably the two guys who are aiding me on my Sleight of Hand check have Sleight of Hand themselves. Couldn't they just braid it into my wig for me (and they make the check, or take 10, rather than me)?
