I’ve always proudly answered “Yes!” – Even an attempt last week. To my dismay, we broke our record perfect. Each and every one of the previous shift had left the studio 1A in an extreme case of nirvana, but we have a continuum of good fortune ended with another. Transformation of the candidate who I will call Mrs. X, ended up in tears.

It was destroyed as it was disappointing. I interviewed with all potential candidates ambush arrangements before they chose you from the crowd and I had asked Ms. Q is mandatory for all the questions: Do you were aware that they will have a new haircut, hair color and makeup different? She did not realize it would not seem like a new woman after the transformation? She did so, but then a little reluctant to let her hair. Negotiated and agreed on the length. We decided to take a few inches from the back of her hair, her face framed with layers.

I think we were on the same page. Well, maybe we had on the same page, but we must have read two books are different. Within minutes of clips in the hair salon the first few, and Mrs. X in tears. I tried to console her, but to no avail. Show that they had never wanted the truth to make more. I did not have even a chance to color her hair. I was very happy about the possibility of release, Ms. X of the beauty that my radar sensitivity was away. I can usually spot a woman know that they need to change but can not get out of her safety zone. This time, I did not listen to them enough about it closely. After years of dramatic changes, and I am usually very conscious of the woman who is not willing to go for a change. Ms. X was not ready emotionally. We had to turn back to the yard to find the arrangements are more susceptible. Fortunately, there was a woman of many excited to be chosen from the crowd. We went to the dimensions and make the new transition were very happy.

Lessons from Lewis
As I said always, and most important part of a visit to the hairdresser is the consultation. Consultation is vital to hair color or hair style is great. This is a precious time when the client connection with its desire to her hairdresser. Although it may seem like a simple conversation to some extent, and hair must be careful and listen to every word speaks of the client. This kind of attention to see the client requires time and patience. After listening to the client, post it in the hair salon to assess whether the idea is appropriate and practical for the client’s hair texture, and structure of the facial skin. Sometimes the most important words are those which he said never. If a woman makes a reference to the hair a friend, or how they used to wear her hair when she was younger, she sends you a message. I call these words between the lines. Volumes are silent loved and hated.

The best advice I can give anyone considering a new format is well thought out. Are you really ready to make a change? This is especially true if the change is significant. If you have any inhibitions or hesitation, but to make smaller changes now, those that you are comfortable, and wait until just before you are ready to make any fundamental change.

My fantasy is that Ms. X woke up the next day and I love her hair. I thought it looked great but her hair and they should feel comfortable and beautiful with a new look to it. Change is almost always good, but only when you are ready for it.
