Work Experience Week 2

I've finished my second week at Athena Hair Studio and I love it! The day goes by very quickly. I'm standing and walking around the salon for most of the day because there are only 2 stylists in on a Wednesday. Their names are Sinead and Amy. I help them to arrange the appointments in the morning of the people who are getting their hair dyed and we get the colours ready for those people. Then when the first customers arrive I gown them. This involves putting a towel around the customer and then a gown followed by a cape which stops the hair dye from getting on the customer. Afterwards I ask the customer if they would like tea or coffee and make it for them. I take my lunch at around 1 or 2 o'clock or whenever the salon isn't busy. I also slot in appointments in the appointment book which is quite difficult to use but I'll get used to it soon. I have to start answering the phone soon aswell but I am a bit nervous.
