So I bought a $300 facial steamer that came with a 'calming' sound feature

The first time I used it on a client, the sound was this weird mix of ocean waves and a faint, sad harmonica. She started laughing so hard she cried, which kind of ruined the whole 'relaxing facial' vibe I was going for. I had to turn it off, but now the steamer just makes a loud gurgle without the soundtrack. Has anyone else had a gadget totally backfire in the middle of a service?

Hold up, you're saying a sad harmonica mixed with ocean sounds ruined a facial? That honestly sounds way more interesting than the fake zen spa playlist every place uses. People are so used to those generic meditation tracks that they tune them out anyway. A little harmonica might actually make them pay attention to the experience instead of falling asleep and snoring through the whole thing. Maybe you stumbled onto a new trend instead of a backfire.
