Literal (Need to know) 
While I was cleaning the shop, I was wondering if maybe taking an actual beauty class would help my project.


Interpretive

What I gained from this experience was the the feeling of a family inside of a salon. The stylists treated me as their own and gave me advice about Beauty School. It also showed me all the work that needs to be done in a salon that I did not know about.

Applied

The cleaning really had nothing to do with my topic but I did get a lecture about how important a good clientele is, which is very helpful.
