Hi Guys,
I thought id share something that happening in my salon yesterday. My first client was booked in at 8.30, a young lady from Norway who wanted her nails done in England befroe flying back home as it was far too expensive to have them done there. Lovely young lady, not too chatty, i think she had just dragged herself outa bed - bless!! Anyhow. i was on my own as it was my partners day off, so i went through consultation and then offered her a drink, which she declined. So i set about the treatment. Got as far as the cuticle work, when she pulled her hand away from mine, so i looked up real quick to see if there was a problem, just to see her eyes shut, and her fall sideways off the chair!! OH MY GOD!! I freaked, quite calmy but i did freak, i jumped up so quick that my flip flops flipped off my feet, and i rushed round to help her! She really hit the deck with some force, and i honestly thoguht she was having an epileptic fit as her head was moving very errattically. (i have to add her consultation form didnt say she was epileptic, but thought she maybe didnt want to say). Anyway, she began to come round, and i was calling her name, and holding her head still, just in case. Bless her, it must have been hard trying to talk back to me in a foreign language, what with my nutty northern accent im difficult to understand at the best of times!! She bloody well passed out on me, due to her not eating anything that morning. I have never been so freaked, and would only let her stand up after drinking water and eating some sugary cakes!! She insisted she was ok, and i wanted to send her home, but she was having none of it! So after half an hour of me trying to persuade her to go home, and her telling me she felt better, i carried on with her treatment. I have now enrolled on a first aid course, so i know what to do in an emergency!! What a great way to start the day! Has anyone else had anything like this happen to them??
