OH WOW! it took me two days to get singed up, so I could comment!
I am new to this hair world, been out of school for one year, I 'm also older then most newbes. I have tried five salons now, looking for one that would work for me, out of those five salons, four of them, had salon owners who would bring there kids to the salon. They would get in my tools play with them, leave a mess, ran around got in the way. At one salon the five year old was making water balloons and running with them in the salon! Crazy!! I love kids, have two, now 20 and 24 and sometimes I had to bring them with me (work related) but they knew the rules, act nice. These salon kids are the ones in charge.
