Almost falling asleep at beauty salon

I find getting pedis so relaxing that I have almost fallen asleep while having them done.

Have you ever actually fallen asleep getting a beauty treatment?

Yes I snore during a massage and wake myself up and try to pretend I am just coughing 😂

Getting my hair washed always puts me to sleep!

DD1 used to fall asleep as I blowdried her hair in winter when we'd got freezing cold and wet on the way back from Brownies or some other evening thing.

First time she went to a hairdresser when she went to University, she went for the latest appointment on a blisteringly cold December day.

I got the blame for her embarrassment when they had to wake her up at the end. 😂

I fell asleep at the hairdresser getting my hair bleached once!! I’d just gotten off a flight from Europe (back to Sydney) so I was exhausted 😂 the hairdressers had a good laugh!

@AllisColm
Ditto! So embarrassing.

Yes getting my eyebrows microbladed. My eyebrow lady is very lovely about it though!

I have fallen asleep in facials…and snored 🫣

I've had people fall asleep on me when giving treatments, I take it as a compliment that i'm doing a good job at relaxing people.

Whenever I have my eyebrows or eyelashes tinted I really struggle to stay awake. Having to keep my eyes closed for any prolonged period of time is like given me full permission to nap. I'm not usually a chatty person but I'm glad to have a natter when I'm having my eyelashes done to save the embarrassment of ending up snoring!

I’ve fallen asleep having my eyelashes done (LVL). It’s having my eyes closed, but also they have a heated blanket so it’s warm, and with calm music on…. My therapist says it’s quite common 😂

No but I've had a panic attack while getting lash extensions which was....interesting..

Always.

I once woke up disoriented to find myself face down on a massage chair with my head inside the open hole bit (this was in Asia - not sure if they have this style of massage table here), a long spool of spittle hanging down from my mouth into the decorative stone garden they'd placed directly underneath.

Massage table, not chair!
