Hair I would imagine is easier to be mobile although I could be wrong. I am solely beauty much to my regret with the current situation.
A big moan is coming along so be prepared.......
I have a few mobile clients which are for me a complete nightmare. Packing before a visit, humping the items I need (Remembering every mortal thing I need is not easy at all!) They are mobile now because of their health preventing them from coming to my home salon which they did previously.
Even needing a small stool, extension cables, pedicure bowl and the mass of beauty paraphernalia is no easy task. Bags and bags of the stuff.
Their lighting is useless and I mean useless...but I can only do my best.
Tables and carpets have to be protected, and sitting on an angle to do gel nails or a manicure is so uncomfortable. Plus there have been quite a few tales of personal care issues that I never thought I would have to sort out for them. Otherwise my work would have been wrecked. Honestly it is really quite testing.
They only pay mileage not travel time as I am paid like a care worker when it comes to mileage. Charge more and they will say goodbye.
If I am taking a selection of nail colours and not all 200 bottles at every visit you can guarantee that there isn't just the right colour they had in mind!
Ask for pink? well which tone? light? dark? fuchsia? baby pink? I take all my pinks plus a risky extra 1 just incase they are tempted. I aren't traipsing back for any more.
Once I return home the unpacking and sanitising takes such a long time, I really can't be bothered to book anyone in after their calls so it limits my other clients on that day.
Any suggestions for me would be most welcome. It's just not my preferred way of working at all.
Moan over
For those of you beauty geeks permanently mobile you deserve a medal. Sorry to have drifted off topic again !!!
