I had a Brazilian Blow Out a few weeks ago, and it left my hair in a disasterous state! It was good for the first week, and now.... My hair gets greasy within a few hours. I used to wash my hair every 2-3 days. Now I wash it every morning, and late afternoon they look like they need a wash again...
Anyway- on the subject of 'all dressed up and nowhere to go' - I do incalls once a week, so I do 'sit around waiting for a client' on that day. I found that I can wait for hours, and nothing. But when i decide 'ok, it's time for lunch, nobody is going to turn up anyway', the minute I enter the queue at Pret, my phone rings, and the guy wants to come NOW. I've had this so many times now, that I try to pop out of the flat regularly, and get a booking within 10 minutes of leaving. I don't know why and how, but it works.
Example from Wednesday- at 10am I relised I'd ran out of towels (i was doind incalls the previous day as well). I decided that nobody is going to call before midday, so I'll just quickly pop down to Primark, and get a few towels. The whole process of getting down to the store, buying towels and getting back took me an hour and a half ( London distances..) and I had 2 booking enquiries for 10.30 and 11.00O during that time. Of course I couldn't do them. And OF COURSE once I got home, I waited for a good 3 hours for another phonecall......
