After growing up and working in Bedminster nearly my whole life, I thought I had seen everything and that nothing could surprise me. I was wrong. It was a normal busy day in the salon and my next client was having colour which I was looking forward to, as it is my favourite service. The lady arrived and she was in a good mood, she was an elderly lady so I assisted her to the chair and started the service. The colour developed and it was now time to wash it off, I again helped her to the chair of the basin and it was there that it had come apparent that she was a very small lady as she couldn't really reach the basin. I propped a cushion under her and washed her colour off. After assisting her back to her chair to dry her hair, I noticed she had got a bit wet from the basin but she assured me it was fine as she had bought a change of clothes with her, as she was going somewhere nice after. I blow dried her hair and suggested she go in the beauty room for some privacy when getting changed. After about 5/10 minutes of her being in the beauty room she called my name for assistance. I imagined she needed help with a button or a zip so I entered the beauty room. What happened next nothing could have prepared me for, after giving me no warning or idea what was happening I looked up to find this elderly women completely and utterly naked! No pants not even a bra, just stood there happy as anything in her birthday suit! Not knowing what to do I asked the lady what was wrong, she then asked me if I could help her get dressed. So trying to stay as professional as possible in the situation I helped her get dressed. The worst part of it all was that i even had to help her put on her Tena Lady. After she was dressed and left the salon I couldn't help but laugh because one thing I have learnt, is if you don't laugh you will cry and even if you think nothing can surprise you, something always will!
