Going in with clips is a game changer, @bennett.paige. Otherwise you're just hoping they read your mind and that never ends well. Like that time I tried to describe 'beachy waves' and left looking like I stuck my finger in a socket. Or when I said 'just a trim' and came out with bangs I didn't ask for. Now I bring a whole folder of videos so we're both on the same page. Saves me from crying in the car afterwards.

Jana672 is spot on with the too many computers thing lol. My friend spent hours on a simple fix only to find out he needed a proprietary tool. Now even changing a battery can trigger a system reset. It's getting ridiculous.

Ever notice how many things have a tell before they go wrong? Sounds can give you a heads up when your eyes miss it.
