Last week's split end reveal on your regular client is classic. It's the hair stylist version of a doctor smoking behind the hospital. I do the same thing with my own cuts, always telling people to trim often while my ends look like a broom. We're all out here preaching what we don't practice. Maybe this is the sign to finally use that deep conditioner sitting in your shower.

Read a magazine tip about using folders like that.

Maybe bad design does cause user error, like @thomaspatel was getting at.

Chaos has its own beauty sometimes.

Honestly mesh is the right call most of the time now. In an old plaster house or a rental, trying to run new cable is a nightmare and costs a ton. I've put in mesh systems for families and they're still solid years later, no dropped calls on the back patio. Sure, a perfect wired backhaul is great, but clients want a fix that works today without tearing up walls.
