Where do you do the belly casting? Do you go to the clients or do they come to you?
Do your clients come to you or do you go to them?

I have only done bellycasts at the client's house, often after a prenatal. They are much more comfortable in their own home especially if the boobs are being done.

I've only done one in my home that wasn't my own and that was because the mom didn't have running water (common here) so wouldn't be able to take a shower afterwards. I like doing it in their home so I don't have to do all the clean up (before and after). And yes, I think they are more comfortable in their own homes.

Well, the one I'm working on now has to be smoothed. I'm finding it alot more challenging than I thought it would be. I thought it'd be a simple spackle and then smoothe. So I'm discouraged and it's going to take alot more time.
