Brave Enough To Try: BAD PERM EXPERIENCE!

This is how you know you might not know how to do a perm. 1. You have to ask your co-worker who is also your boss if you roll a perm on wet or dry hair. (The answer is wet) 2. you get the top of the 90 year old clients shirt wet while washing her hair because she is to old to get her neck back in the shampoo bowl. 3. You ask your boss to demonstrate a curl for you just to remind you(cough) of how its done. He kindly points out that the roller set rods you were about to use are not perm rods and kindly fetches the perm rods for you. These are Roller set rods.

These are Perm Rods. Notice they have a little rubber band across back to secure them to hair.

4. After boss demonstrates 13 curls he hands it over to you and in the time it took him to get 13 rods in you manage to get 3 poorly wrapped ones in. 5. Boss sees you struggling, gives advice. You whisper in a panicked moaning sort of way, I CANT DO THIS! Boss kindly takes over and rolls whole perm! (Also imagine client, who is 90 has a 50 year old daughter who is watching you miserably fail in doing all this) 6. You go to wash out perm old lady who all ready cant get her neck back in the bowl definitely cant with an inch of perm rods on the back of her head. but before you realize she is not back in the bowl her WHOLE BACK is WET! I dont mean ran through the sprinkler wet.

I mean you stood under one of those HUGE water buckets at the water park and it dumped on you, WET!

7. You try to dry it with towels you try to hide it before boss sees.... boss sees. (Great! As if you have not all ready made an idiot of your self!) He calmly says ok just blow dry her shirt some and style her up! EMBARRASSING!!! 8. You start to blow dry her shirt. Boss decides he could do a better job grabs dryer and works on it himself! You stand there awkwardly while 50 year old daughter watches all this. 9. You style her up it looks as good as a 90 year old's perm can look and she leaves(with a still drenched shirt). The end.
