While people tend to associate delivery with goods, many do not realise that services are also brought to the customer. From the telephone company or bank which offers the opportunity to sign up on the spot outside the company's offices to a mechanic who makes house calls, services come to the customer regularly.

And this applies to personal services as well, as 27-year-old Patricia, is one of many young women who takes her manicure and pedicure services into the homes of clients when required. That requirement comes often.

"Some people don't like to go into a salon mostly because they think that the women who come there chat too much when they come together in a group. So instead of going and staying three hours to do something that takes 30 minutes or less, they ask you to come in," she said.

This is, however, mostly after a relationship has been established at the salon. "Is not any and everybody you go to, because sometimes people get very out of order when they are in their home and want to treat you a way," Patricia said.

It is also mostly on weekends that the nail technician hits the road with her bag and boxes of beauty tricks, as women unwind for a week of work and prepare to go out in style. "It is extra work and transportation, so I put on a little extra, but they understand," Patricia, who has full weekends, said.
