Women Working Crazy/Excerpt

Chapter 1

"So, which hair product line should we use for our next video?" Dominique Rollins asked her older sister, Eva. The two were sitting at the table in the lounge of the beauty salon called Renee's Beauty Salon. Drinking Pepsi colas from drinking bottles and scrolling down the page of a website on Eva's pink Android tablet, which she hates since it was messing up. "Maybe, we should use the Creme of Nature brand," Eva suggested. But Dominique wasn't so keen on the idea, she told Eva that they had done it before. Eva was a college student attending Los Angeles College, majoring in Cosmetology and was still learning her craft. So was Dominique, but she was a part-time musician in an band with her boyfriend Brad Reese. But Eva wasn't in class at the moment, in her third week of the fall semester, Eva had injured the right heel of her foot from constant walking and wearing the wrong shoe. She had to withdrew from her class until her heel had recovered. Dominique was still attending classes, but she was getting a ride to class from her boyfriend. "We used Creme of Nature for years, why can't we use it?" "We've done it before."
