Standing appointments?

Ever thought of a standing appointment?  When I lived in Dallas, I had plenty of clients who would have their hair washed and  styled on Tuesday, wear their blowout until Thursday or Friday, then wash and put their hair into a bun or a chignon to get them through the last day or two. Don't think these were the little old ladies of your mothers generation with helmet styled hair-dos.  No, these were women of various age groups. 

Granted, it does mean one extra cost each week but also makes getting ready for work each morning a whole lot easier. Scheduling  your appointments on days when your sure you'll be in front of a meeting to give a lecture, going out for a business luncheon or doing something that requires a hairstyle.  Those are the times when you don’t want to rush other things. Besides, if you get your hair done the day before, you may get to have a little more time with your makeup or trying out a few outfits before settling for the best one. Not a bad reason to go to a salon, you’ll agree. 

Being able to style your own hair like a pro is a skill that will definitely come handy more than once, although I truly believe a girl should allow herself some pampering from time to time.
