A New Challenge
As Maria worked through the girl’s hair, she noticed that while they had managed to tackle the major tangles and mats, there was still significant damage closer to the scalp. Frowning, she pondered the best way to address it without undoing all the progress they had made.
Concerned that bringing up the remaining damage might trigger a setback for the girl, Maria approached the situation with a different strategy. She didn’t want the girl to feel hopeless again after they had come so far together.
After some thought, Maria formulated a plan, determined to find a solution to continue their journey toward healing and restoration without causing unnecessary distress.

Buying Time
Maria understood she needed a moment to strategize without raising suspicion. She couldn’t just stop and stare at the girl’s hair without a plan; that would make her wonder what was happening.
Her brain went into overdrive as she mulled over how to extend the situation while she figured out the next step. Maria’s biggest worry was that if she didn’t come up with a solution soon, they might have no choice but to resort to cutting the hair, which she was determined to avoid if possible.
With determination, Maria kept calm and searched for a way to navigate this challenge without causing unnecessary stress for the girl. She knew she had to find a solution to maintain their progress and preserve the girl’s trust in her expertise.

The Best Approach
Maria’s success in hairstyling wasn’t just about her talent; it was also about something more intangible that she offered her customers—a sense of trust and comfort that was priceless.
With her regular clients, Maria’s additional services always felt seamless and easy. But with the girl, it was different. Her struggles and the heavy burden she carried made the situation more delicate to handle.
Navigating through the girl’s challenges required a different approach, one that Maria hadn’t encountered before. Despite the situation’s complexity, Maria was determined to find a way to offer the same level of care and support that she provided to all her clients.
