What to ask at a first consultation
A first consultation is where we get to know your hair and what you want from it.We ask about your hair history, past colour treatments and how much time you like to spend styling at home each morning.
We also chat about your face shape, scalp and any concerns you have, so the plan we build actually suits you long after you leave the chair.
Come Prepared
Good questions to ask are what the cut or colour will need from you at home, how long the result should last and whether a patch test is needed first.
Ask about products suited to your hair type too, and when you should come back for a trim or touch up, so you always know what to expect next.
During Consultation
When you sit down, your stylist will look closely at your hair before saying anything. They are checking thickness, condition, how it falls and where it has been coloured before. Use this time to ask questions too. Find out what products they recommend for your hair type, and why, so you understand the reasoning rather than just following instructions. A good consultation feels like a conversation, not a monologue from either side.
Before you leave, your stylist should tell you how to look after the result at home, including which products will keep it looking right and how soon you should book your next visit. If the appointment is a trial run for something important, like a wedding or a big event, say so early. That way there is time to make small changes before the real day, instead of discovering on the morning itself that something needs adjusting.
