"Now we're going to discuss "As the numbing agent wears off". I have clients that don't come in on time, when they're supposed to, and/or they did not bring enough numbing agent. There?s many situations that I have to deal with throughout my day. Now we've worked on Pam, and we slid over the numbing agent as we went, but she's been in for, say, a couple of hours. Now she needs to bring that numbing agent with her, so when I'm coming up on an hour, working across her face, I can reapply to the area I'm going to come into to work, say in 45 minutes later. And coming in to it, not there yet; but I've got to do my timing in my head, that it's up to full potential. And that's where I monitor with the client. I worked with this product for a long time, and I know how to use it correctly. Now on this demonstration, it's not going to be right on, like I would in my salon, but you get the concept of what I'm talking about. So we pull that product, then we reapply, and then we go in to that other area when it's ready to go, but we never go back over an area that's been treated."
