The Salon

As some of you may also know, I work in a salon as a Receptionist. I thought this would be the perfect opposite of my other place of hearing...

Pandora station is turned on.. Ben Howard? Alt-J? John Mayer? Lorde? Damien Rice? Florence and the Machines? I don't know..
The coffee maker is brewing and snarling and gurgling
When the stylists arrive I hear:::
laughter. Really enthusiastic laughter :)
blow dryers running along hair on top of a round-brush, and then air dryers drying nothing but air.
faucets running, and then the softening sound of the water head close to a client's scalp
crinkling of aluminum foils as they are folded, and later as they are removed
the wash machine turning and spinning
the dryer clunking and clunking as it lifts the capes and hair towels.
phones ringing
the computer mouse clicks
tapping of the keyboard keys
receipts coming out of the little receipt printer
high heels clicking and clacking around the floor. Sometimes softly, sometimes quickly.
trays being rolled over to the stylists stations
tubes squshing and mixing brushes mixing colors
the door opens and shuts
cabinets open and close
