Thick Hair and It's Benefits

Most of us find it difficult to name our best features or say what we like most about ourselves. I have always loved my thick hair. I often think that if I could, I would share some of it with all those poor souls that have thin, limp hair….like one of my favorite aunts.

I’m not bragging….just being thankful for having lots of hair and its thick texture. This week I found yet another reason why I’m thankful. It takes me a good 25-30 minutes to blow-dry all that hair. In those minutes that I’ve often cursed (who has an extra half hour to spend on their hair?), I discovered that I have some of my best ideas….both in a personal nature and business. Personally, I think about my chores for the day, or gift ideas for family members, or fun things I can do in my spare time (okay…not lately). Business-wise I come up with some great marketing ideas, strategies to try, ways I can help my customers, networking opportunities, new designs for my jewelry, jewelry-making classes I will take (okay….not lately).

I figure thinking about all the positive things in my life and making plans while I’m blow drying my hair is a lot safer than doing that while I’m driving and rushing to my next appointment. It’s also a good thing that I get totally immersed in my jewelry making, or who knows what crazy designs I’d come up with.

Followup about my last post - Customer Service

I've been so crazy busy (all good) that I never posted the outcome of my dilemma to speak up or not about my experience at the spa. Here's what happened. I had my meeting but didn't say anything because we met in an open area where employees would have heard the conversation. It just wasn't an appropriate time or place to let the owner know what happened and how I felt. I did get the business....yeah...and will be setting up there next week. If in the future the occasion arises to say something I might or I'll just have to let it go. Thanks again for your thoughts and opinions.
