Yet at the same time I was informed by a lady who cut my hair that do not worry, sometimes when there's only one client they don't require

Shelley delivered my home delivery colour kit today so that I can do my roots at home since the salon is closed because of Covid. What an awesome service! She called me when she arrived at my house and told me that she would be about 10 minutes because she mixed the colour right in her vehicle. She brought me everything I needed ... my specific colour that is already used in the salon that is mixed in a disposable container, applicator brush, gloves, shampoo, conditioner, instructions and a magazine! The day before, she emailed me a fabulous video of her on how to apply the colour at home! Not
