40 ASCP Skin Deep May/June 2014 Everybody has something they'd rather avoid. What's the least favorite part of your job? Don't You Hate That? ascp and you: your turn Laundry! Jeff Mendoza LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA Repeating to clients over and over again how to gain maximum results by using pharmaceutical-grade products, yet hearing the same old thing about how their skin doesn't look like they expected—and "What products can you recommend for me to buy at Walmart?" Kimberly Handley ATHENS, ALABAMA Clients who want a pampering facial. I'd rather do more involved, results-oriented treatments. I like to get creative with customized treatments using enzymes, machines, peels, etc. Melissa Miller-Bradley PALM CITY, FLORIDA No-shows and last-minute cancellations. Angie Andersen-Kline, Yasmin Beeck, Helene Buscemi, Mathilda Golding, Holly Guardino, Cathy Hoecherl, Stacey Walsh, Jenn Whittaker, and many others VIA FACEBOOK When I know I have reached my boundaries. I wish I could work miracles on every client I treat, but sometimes it's in their best interest to refer them to a dermatologist. Dominique Bachlin VIA FACEBOOK What I like least is the business part— keeping up on accounting, marketing, and inventory. Jennifer W. FULLERTON, CALIFORNIA My least favorite part is my clients running late, because I need to shorten their treatments to accommodate the next person. I don't like to shortchange anyone. Debbie Fong Kho VIA FACEBOOK Cleaning and restocking my room at the end of the day. I'd like to hire someone to do it for me, only they'd never do it to my standards. I'm an organizational clean freak. Heidi Kenney VIA FACEBOOK I've given this question a great deal of thought, and my answer is "nothing." Truly. No-shows on a Friday evening … that's the universe giving me my much-needed break. It's their loss. Christine Clemente VIA FACEBOOK Hands down: client noncompliance! Laundry is a close second. Tabatha Potter PEORIA, ILLINOIS I think the least favorite part of my job would be all the technical (but necessary) aspects: maintaining social media, blogs, and accounting software. Krista C. OZARK, MISSOURI Taxes are something I dread, but only once a year. Noncompliant clients who say, "It's not working!" when they bought one product, expect miracles, and continue to use a supermarket product as two-thirds of their regimen. I am not your fairy godmother; I just look like her! (Minus the wand.) Jamie Packard Jacob VIA FACEBOOK Answer our next question: What advice would you give to an esthetics student who is just about to graduate? Email your answer to editor@ascpskincare.com. Answers will appear in the July/August issue and may be edited for length and clarity.
