Hair Removal Methods Professional Electrolysis
#1

I will forever be grateful to James for introducing me to Josepha (Jossie). I suppose I feel lucky, but I’m also reminded about my “über-angst” for all these 33 years of being in this profession. See, for me, Jossie is “the one.”

She represents the kind of professional I had assumed populated our ranks. Without being invidious, I must say I have been largely disappointed with most. The operative adjective to define Jossie is “open-minded.”

She has no rigid point of view and is influenced only by the objective data. She has never been dismissive in the face of something she didn’t understand. She has no agenda, hidden or otherwise. And, likewise, I’m learning from her, in both substance and spirit.

Indeed, we have been corresponding almost daily, and with each day my admiration for her grows. I’m not going to become obsequious, but this is the person I had been waiting for, for my entire professional career. Jossie has given me renewed hope for our future. Bravo Jossie!

I must echo Michael’s statement. Josefa is indeed one of the few.

True. Josefa is the real deal.

Thank you friends.

Michael, I would need to work other 30 years to try to be at a height of your feet, and this way I would not even manage to have your talent.

Nonetheless, you have achieved that I get excited.
Thank you teacher!

I admire and have the upmost respect for you as well Jossie. You have enriched hairtell in more ways besides sharing your electrolysis pearls. Students of electrolysis must be thriving as they tune in for their daily dose of Jossie. I am glad you happened onto About.com and our paths crossed. Remember, you had to remind me of that in the recent past! What was I doing or saying over there anyway!

Did you purchase the Apilus Platinum after we ‘met’ or did you have it before? I hope to see you in August. You are a great treasure to our profession. We need to get you on the AEA’s speakers list.

Love and huggies,

Dee

PS: I don’t think Andrea will have to warn us about being so complimentary and loving to each other, will she?

Michael Bono - I think your comments were directed at me. It’s okay to talk to me directly. I don’t bite. :eek:

#8

Funny Dee…I was sure Michael B was talkin’ about me!

#9

Ah, Barbara, you have put me in an invidious position, and I am tempted to refuse comment. :grin:

#10

Here here…well said Michael!

I had already purchased. I was aware of the existence of Platinum for my dear friends, the marriage Teruel (Centro Kebec in Lorca (Murcia)).

The machine had to travel from Madrid to Malaga so we could try. The training Dectro in Spain were very kind to me, they gave me a demo and let me use a few hours. At first I was afraid that the representatives of Dectro in Spain did not allow me to test the machine because of my collaborations with other Spanish machine manufacturer, SORISA. You know, someone could think I was doing industrial espionage. Nothing could be further from reality, Sorisa has not been interested in creating anything new for electrologists since the late 90’s.

Then I bought my first Platinum, a year after I bought the second one for my sister, and a year later I bought the third for my doctor. Now we can all work with a Platinum and customers do not feel discriminated against.

Oh yes Dee, I’d like to attend the Symposium Dectro in Quebec. I will do everything possible to go. I hope my French is up to the circumstances.

#12

Having attended Dectro Symposiums in the past, I can tell you that lack of French (Francophone) is no barrier. They set up your hotel rooms, and shuttle bus you from hotel to their headquarters daily, and on any functions outside the Dectro compound, a dual speaker is there to represent you at all times.

Should one venture out to mix with the locals, one will find that most speak French and English equally well.

It is money well spent, and a trip one would remember for a lifetime.

Post Script:
Since you bought your Platinum after checking out the Teruel Platium, which they bought because they spent their honeymoon with me, getting free time on my Platinum, I guess you can blame me that you have those, and Dectro should be sending me at least a number 7 Jersey from the Quebec Nordiques and/or Montreal Alouettes :wink:

WITH Michael. Fully. I am greally grateful to be able to learn from Josefas contributions - thank You very much.

I’ve been to some 40+ countries now and not speaking the local language is pretty much never an issue unless you’re not willing to be open-minded. France is definitely a non-issue, especially in major cities. English is the language of choice outside of the local language pretty much everywhere around the world. So visiting from an English-speaking country already gives you an advantage everywhere. Other foreigners have to learn English in addition to their native language when they travel a lot.

The toughest countries are probably Japan, China and many in Eastern Europe. But even then, they typically know written English at least a little and are just shy when it comes to speaking.

Also, asking younger people for help will usually result in finding someone who understands you.

Then, there is always communication by hands! You’d be amazed how much can be accomplished with hands alone and not using your tongue at all. :slight_smile:

#15

Now allso in Eastern Europe most young people (under 30) know at least a little english, so allso there you shouldnt have any problem at all :slight_smile:

Yes, James, I have seen photos of that unforgettable trip that made our mutual friends. I know you were the best hosts. Dectro is indebted to you, but they are not alone. How about a Spanish national team jersey? you know, the winning team at last, after all, it has the same colors Hairtell. I think you would look great with our jersey. :wink:

#17

Yes LAgirl, I can imagine how is communication with your hands, I recently had clients of many nationalities. I can only communicate with them via instant translator when the session ends. But I discovered that I only need to use a word while I’m working: “Painful?” .
If the answer is: “It is Okay” is that all is well. :wink:

#18

I would love to have a Spanish Number 7 in my collection. :wink:

I am still waiting for the Madrid or the Renaldo that someone promised.

Forget about Madrid and all its international stars, James, they are acquired with scandalous bank heel. Barcelona is better, they represent the triumph of teamwork. Players will not work if you take them out of the team because the team itself is the winner (see Messi).
I like to think that Electrolysis is like football and that electrologists in Hairtell are like FC Barcelona, a real winner team. :slight_smile:
