Moved!!

Yep! I moved to a new salon! I now work at the Beauty Center off of Durango, in the Kohl's shopping center! Tuesday was my first day here and so far so good (except for one thing that happened but I will get to that later!) I have my own room that has its own sink and dryer, and I got to decorate however I want! I'll take some pics and post them soon. Ok, so here is what happened...tuesday, my first day here, lots of people are coming by my room to say hi and to introduce themsleves to me. And this one lady who works here came up to me and said "I just wanted to tell you that I haven't had a walkin in 4 weeks! Its so dead here! I've been here ever since this place opened and I'm here 5 days a week from 9-5 and its SOOO dead! I've seen soooo many girls come here who are building their clientelle and they only last a month or two because they can't make enough money! I don't know what they told you when you signed up here, but whatever it was, they were lying! So good luck cause your gonna need it!" She went on for about 10 min on how dead it is here and how I should basically get out now while I can. So after she left I started freaking out a little cause that's one of the reasons why I left the other salon. So I decided to go talk to the receptionist to see how many walkins they had last week. And the receptionist told me they had 9 last sat and this Monday they had 5! So after hearing that I felt a little better. Well about 10 min later I got a walkin for a color! And while I was busy with my client that lady walked by my room and I just smiled at her! She probably was just trying to scare me away. I have had atleast one walkin a day sofar. So we will see how things go...its slow everywhere but its nowhere near as bad as she says! Oh, and she hasn't been here since Tuesday....so much for her being here 5 days a week from 9-5!!! Hah! Anyways.....so that's pretty much all that's been going on sofar..I'll write more with pictures later. Love ya!!!

Nice job Chelsea. . . You should steal her clients too. That will show her who's boss. Survival of the fittest. . .

Congrats on the move. You better keep your eyes on that girl! Sounds like she is into sabotage! Hope it turns out great for you.
