Yeah...I've had several occasions where a client does the "purse dive" when
their phone rings. I hang on to their hands....don't let 'em go! Expecially
if they've got sticky gel product all over all their nails! Then after I'm at a
quitting place...will say "OK...if you feel you need to check your
phone...we'll stop now. And I do NOT work on them while they're on their
phone. They wiggle...they gesticulate....they get loud....they are
stiff....they don't move like I need them to...and on and on. I just sit
quietly and smile...not touching them. They usually get the message. At the
pedi chair I DO warn them about letting their phone go swimming...but I don't
care if they want to be on their phones "up there" where I am not trying to
work! lol

Subject: Re: NailTech:: clients and cellphones
I recently had a massage from a very spiritial thearapist who told me not to
allow my clients to use their phone while I was touching them as it would or
could pass a negative energy on to me...which could be possible since we do
touch people and I have had several clients through the years pass on negative
moods and I've touched a few I felt like not ever toucing again and had to wash
my hands with cold water after their services....its not only rude but it could
be hazzardious to both the client and the service provider....I've had clients
try to reach for their ringing phone while I had a ver sharp bit on my drill
going to town on a gel coating and oh damn they got cut...gee wonder why and
how that could happened....keeping your clients still facing forward is hard
enough....I don't talk on the phone while doing a service so don't talk on the
phone while getting a service!!!
