Freaked!

Something funny happened today. This is the first time in 4 of my working years i've ever encounter this!

I had 3 customers, mother and 2 daughters coming in today and the mother told me that her 2 daughters thought of getting a perm done. (Perm - permanent curls) *note* elder daughter is 16, the younger one is 11. I was quite shocked that their mom allow them to do it.

After about 15minutes of consultation, the 4 of us came to a mutual agreement that the 2 daughters were gonna get a perm and we have also discussed on what kind of curls they want achieve and the cost for doing it.

So, we started working on it. Me and my assistants were applying chemicals and doing our magic. Half way through the process, about an hour later, the 2 daughters freaked out that she was actually getting a perm!! (ok, i know you're pretty confused right now because that was what i was feeling at that point!)

Actually, she thought it was just temporary curls because she told her mom that's what she wanted to do. But during the consultation, they specifically told me that they wanted a perm, not set their hair (set - temporary). And then i got freaked out as well because i thought that it was my fault that we had miscommunication.

When the mom came back to the salon from shopping while waiting for her daughters, i asked her if she knew that her daughters are actually getting a perm and not setting their hair. Luckily she said she knew and she wanted them to get the perm since they wanted to have curls. *phew* You cannot imagine the sense of relief !!


So, to the girls out there who thinks that a perm is temporary curls, get your terms right!!



I was pretty busy the whole entire day at work. But, i still went and hit 200 balls after work...Super Duper tired!! Physically drained..and it's 3.30am now and i still can't sleep!! Help!!




p/s: thinking of you every minute and every second of the day...
