How was window shopping?
In part 2 of this blog series on How to Choose a Hairstylist, we talked about the wonderful online world that makes it super easy to get a really good look at your potential new Hairstylist’s portfolio. Hopefully you’ve had an opportunity to check out a bunch of different Hairstylists which brings us to part 3 of this series!
It’s time to look at the Salon.
What difference could the Salon possibly make? First, let’s make a list of what you really want from a hair appointment. Sort of like your ‘must haves’!
Let me guess at a few:
- Makes you feel welcome and comfortable
- Might be a bit edgy and trendy
- Gives great customer service
- Has knowledge and new things to try since they are constantly learning
- Might be super upbeat and bubbly
- Makes you feel pampered
- Stays consistent from visit to visit
- Knows the latest colour techniques (think back to when balayage first started) and current trends
- Might be calming and relaxing
- And most importantly gives you GREAT hair
Have I hit a few? Can you relate to some points?
I’ll be frank. The points above can be met by any Stylist at any Hair Salon, but as you may well know that isn’t always the case.
A great Salon creates a blueprint for the type and quality of hair services, the customer experience and the level of education required of any Stylist who chooses to work there. In other words…..
★ If you want a party of a hair appointment with music in a busy, upbeat and fun atmosphere, find the salon like that. That’s where your perfect Stylist will be.
★ If you want a quick dash in, dash out hair appointment find the Salon like that. That’s where your perfect Stylist will be.
★ If you want individual one on one services with no other clients in while you enjoy your service, find the Salon like that. That’s where your perfect Stylist will be.
★ If you want a quiet, calm, relaxing hair appointment to feel a little indulged and pampered, find the salon like that. That’s where your perfect Stylist will be.
★ If you want a high end, uber professional, chic, knock your socks off experience, find the salon like that. That’s where your perfect Stylist will be.
Human nature reveals the following to be true:
‘People like people who are like themselves.’
Find the type of Salon experience you want to have because your perfect Stylist will also want to be there too.
I’ll check back in soon with part 4 ?
Thanks for listening,
