Nothing makes you doubt your skills quite like your only non friend/family customer of your newly started business texting to cancel her 2nd appointment :cry:
I text back saying I hoped there wasn't a problem with her first appointment (French Shellac) and to have a nice Christmas but she never answered. She has 2 wee kids and did say at her first appointment that she only ever gets her nails done for special occasions so hoping it is that she is too busy/skint rather than that I did a terrible job!
At least she let me know and isn't just a no-show. I'm just starting and haven't really advertised or anything yet apart from starting a Facebook page as wanted to get more practise in before properly pushing myself in 2013 but it would have been a nice boost to think that a total stranger would come to me twice. I know my French needs work so maybe it just wasn't neat enough for her. Or maybe it lifted quickly? She did have super short bitten nails and admitted to me while I was going through the aftercare that she wouldn't follow it. And that she's only had Shellac once before and it chipped in 2 days when she was cleaning and she's just let it grow out instead of removing it so maybe she's just not a nails type of person?
Urgh I hate this constant self doubt! Does it ever go away?
