When clients call products/treatments a wrong name does it annoy you?

[Nicolahayley]

You post on a public forum you need to accept different views.

Did you expect to get a million posts that just agreed with you?

I do accept different views thank you. I just don't see why it has to be such a bitch fest. Especially your comments aswel!!! There's opinions then there's just down right rudeness and a personal attack... Read your comments back!! That's not just an opinion that you aired

My husband tells people that I put hot rocks on clients (hot stone massage).

People must think I'm some sort of dominatrix

I just remembered the most annoying one.
'What you 'avin dawn?'
'Im 'avin that frangeepanee wrap'

Oh are you really. I've just gone and set up for a frangipani wrap, damn it.

That probably doesn't help. I don't know wether it's the pronunciation that annoys me, or the fact the person that's saying it sounds so common. /snob

I thought it was cackee as well - well, I thought it might not be but I always read it as cackee to myself . . . so is it "casey?"

Me too. It was a client that taught me how to pronounce it.

It's an Elemis body wrap treatment. The frangipani comes as a monoi oil (which is just a-maze-innnnng) you can use it as a hair oil, cuticle oil and body oil. It just smells gorgeous. In short the oil is applied to the body after body brushing, you get wrapped up and have a mini facial/face massage and scalp massage with the oil.
They've bought out a shower cream, body moisturiser and scrub now as well. You have to go smell it, it's divine!

Wow sounds good! What benefits does it have on the body?? Does it help improve circulation, skin ttone, cellulite ect??

 

[MissLease]

It's just a very nourishing treatment. Great for dry/lifeless skin. I find using an oil better than a cream for moisturising. It also makes your hair look really shiny if you leave it on over night.

I always read it as Cack-eye. :o

 

[LolliDolli]

I had a client who came in and asked for 'Stringing'. Took me a while to realise that she meant 'Threading'. I was in hysterics but luckily so was she. It was my first time doing her treatment and she stuck with me after that, we always have such a laugh and it still gets brought up lol.

CACKY, I hear it every day....it's pronounced... KC or spelt as saying 'kay see '

 

[ColourGirly]

Yes, true colourgirly... I'm sure all your clients know exactly who you are by your membership name!

I know full well most 'clients' wouldn't be in here reading all these pointless threads and working out where everyone of us works or what businesses we all have. I do hope some of them read the intimate waxing horror story threads to help those that have to suffer the stench.

I was in a salon where a girl who's english wasnt her first language asked the client if she wanted a blowjob instead of a blowdry but I think that's a whole other thread.........
