The other day I was telling you all about the bomb threats in our local small town area. I think we finished a 10 day period with 3 bomb threats at the local Wal-Mart, one at the court house, one at a neighboring small town Wal-Mart and one at their junior high school. So far no one knows who did it. I was talking to my mother about the bomb threats at Wal-Mart and she brought up a subject that I had not thought of before. She thought of it because she gets her hair cut and permed at her local Wal-Mart in the hair salon. What happens when you are in a beauty shop that is part of a store like Wal-Mart and the store needs to be evacuated? Of course you have to leave BUT what happens to your hair 
if you are in the process of hair dye and/or perming. Timing is essential!! Chemicals have to be rinsed or shampooed out of your hair after a certain period of time. I must say the day I was at the store I never even glanced over to the beauty shop so I didn’t notice any women (or men) running out of the store with hair dye dripping down their faces or perm solution and little curlers all over the place. But really what do you do? Hair dye has to stay in for a certain period of time in order for it to process correctly – if rinsed out too early you might be left with orange hair (ask me how I know this! ) I’m not sure about perm solution, maybe if rinsed out too early you just don’t have a perm. Anyway this got me curious about the whole situation.
So what do you think happens? Do salons have an agreement with other beauty shops in the area for situations like this – emergency – please help my customer? Or do you have to run home and try to take care of it yourself?
What do you think happens or should happen?
