So I had a lot of friends and family anxiously awaiting the day when I would start on the floor and be able to do their hair. The weird thing about doing the hair of people you’re close with is you see them way more often than your regular clients. So let’s say your sister comes in and ends up not liking what you did to her hair. How would you handle that? (Leave comments with tips.) Luckily my friends and family have all loved what I’ve done for their hair. I will admit, I put a hole in my brothers haircut last week. It was our late night and I was doing clipper over comb to blend and my clippers just slid off the comb and took it a bit shorter on one tiny spot on the back of his head. His response was “I literally don’t think I’ve ever seen what the back of my head looks like so it’s fine!” Thank goodness for Miss Miller and her wonderful blending skills but that is still just a bad feeling. Your clients will always be your walking billboard and you clearly never want a single flaw on their head but that’s why we’re still students. And you know what I learned from that day? FOCUS. Even if you might be running a little bit behind, don’t sacrifice your skill to make yourself go faster than you should.
Till Next Time,
Teresa
