Last Thursday was the busiest day I've had in 3 years at my studio

I had 6 back to back facials starting at 8am with no gaps for lunch. Three clients were new and two of them cried during their extractions because they said nobody had ever been that thorough. How do you all handle days where you barely have time to pee let alone eat?

Scheduling buffer time between clients has been a game changer for me even if it means charging a little more to make up for it. Do you block out 15 minutes between appointments or just power through?

I really feel you on the "game changer" part. Blocking out 15 minutes between appointments saved my sanity. I used to try to power through back to back and I'd end up rushing out the last client or feeling totally fried by noon. Even if it means charging a little more now, it's worth it to not feel like I'm constantly behind. It also gives me a chance to take a real breath or jot down a quick note before the next person walks in.
