Ok, so it is not the most overly professional look to portray, but it's also not that big a deal, IMO. It's clean and hygenic and I could definitely get excited about having my floors buffed and polish regularly .

I also agree that it isn't THE most professional way, i wonder what her other clients think of it. We use Sticky Feet here too! xx

Hey the always ultra - will be nice and thin, the right size and really cheap.


I think its a canny idea - after all - it is simply cotton wool.

I always feel hypocritical that i recycle and turn my lights off etc etc and then use tons of cotton wool and various other disposable things that i really dont need to in my work.Therefore i now use 2 small black towels on the floor which i can wash.I also use washable hair turbans instead of disposables.

But are sticky feet bio degradable,i think they are foam. I really think it is something we need to think about, all the different things we put in our bins that are carted off to the land fill just so we look a bit more professional.

This is a great idea, I already do the towels on the floor as I find the sticky feet can be too sticky? (anyone else found that?) Sometimes I have trouble getting them off clients feet and then they complain that fluff sticks to them even though I give them a good old clean with the wipes.

Can I ask where you bought your washable turbans?

Ponden mill.They are micro fibre ones.I have seen them in quite a few high street places though.
I dont like sticky feet for the exact reason you described ,as well as throwing them away.I think they make them too sticky and sanitary towels not sticky enough

Why must she be shut down for goodness sake?? To be honest, I don't see what the big deal is.

If the sanitary towels are staight out the bag and safe to use, then why should it be a problem? When I was growing up in Rhodesia (Zimbabwe) during our first civil war, you could not buy tampons for love nor money. Why? Because the army used used them out in the field to plug bullet holes as they were the perfect size and diametre and effective in stopping the bleeding. Plus they were sterile as they came straight out of their packaging. No mess, no fuss!

I have laughed out loud reading this thread. I actually think that this person thought outside the box and was quite clever. As I client (unless I saw the box) I would never know

Following on form Mrs Clooney's info, sanitary towels are also excellent to have in your medical kit. They are an excellent pressure bandage. The soak up the blood (after all that's what they are designed to do!) and with pressure placed over them will help to stop bleeding.
