Does that guy ever stop to draw breath ???? The Irish have a reputation for being `chatty`--that guy could talk for Norway !!!!!
One thing I noticed [and had forgotten about,as it`s so long since I used Salons ] was that stylist was cleaning his scalp with a white tissue -like thing ----- as far as I can see, that is a medical swab [ the type they use to clean /sterilise the skin before giving injections or taking blood in clinics] and you can buy them in drug stores in sealed foil packets --- if a system is stuck to your skin for a month, after cleaning the glue off the scalp, it`s a good idea to wipe the skin with one of those to kill off any bacteria which may be lurking ---just a tip for anyone into long -term bonds /wearing and it might help to avoid skin irritations or possible infections. They are pre -injection swabs, so anyone who is interested, just ask for those.

Hi Paul!

He he he - yeah, he's quite talkative :-D
Too bad there are no subtitles, because he has some very funny comments!

From what I can see in the video, the stylist is just using that white tissue to wipe of the glue that he is cleaning from the scalp with the plastic creditcard-like thing...?

Anyway - that's a very good tip, so today I went to the local drug store and bought a box of "cutisoft wipes". They contain: "Isopropyl alchohol BP 70%".

I hope they will do the trick and I will bring them with me to the stylist in case he's not using something similar - just to be safe ;-)

Did your stylist use these tissues to clean your scalp at the time you were using salon services?

If this system looks and feels good and I will decide to stick with it, then I'm planning to go and have my service done once every third week... I hope this frequent service along with the tissues will maintain a problem-free scalp with little odor and a bond that will stick for that time period. I thankfully (in this regard) don't live in a very hot country when it comes to the weather - so I guess that's a bonus as well ;-)
