Hiccups are a bit of a problem!

[Miss Sylk]

Ive never had hiccups whilst in the salon, until today and oh my word what a problem that caused. Doing eyelash extensions and nail art with them is impossible! really. Imagine if i had poked her in the eye.....Luckily i managed to stay quiet long enough and breath slowly enough to control them and they went but I hope i dont get them ever again lol!

Note- holding breath wont help either as that means you get light headed and nearly fall off your stool! :o

My partner laughs at me when I have hiccups. Apparently they are weird and sound more like really bad wretching than hiccups lol

Oh gosh my hiccups are awful, not only are they incredibly LOUD, they actually come out with so much force that after 10 minutes I'm in pain! I've never found a cure (thanks, mum, who always had me drink vinegar by the tablespoon).

This works EVERY time for me. Take a glass of water, put your upper lip on the far side of the glass as you slowly bend at the waist. when you bend low enough, slowly tip the glass so the water pours into your mouth. Swallow, and stand up. Drinking water upside down ALWAYS gets rid of my hiccups. It looks funny, so don't do it around someone the first time or you will end up laughing and snorting the water instead.

Hi. Actually holding your breath does work but only if you take the deepest breath through your mouth so it stretches your diaphragm. You don't need to hold it for more than 3 seconds (it can make you lightheaded but shouldn't make you pass out).
Hiccups are caused by an involuntary contraction of the diaphragm (like cramp). I'm a brass player and singer and was a singing teacher, I deal with hiccups a lot xx
