Tips before the next appointment with your hairstylist.
Try to be on time & be understanding.
Your hairstylist is juggling many things at once so sometimes they will run late.
Recognize that they may be quieter some days versus others because they too have lives with ups and downs.
It’s nice when you ask how they are doing.❤️
Help your hairstylist maintain good posture while working.
If you bring your laptop to your appointment please understand that sometimes you will need to stop working so the hairstylist can do their work well.
Keeping your head in the position instructed as this helps your hairstylist do a good job and protect their body.😊
Share & recommend.
If you’re not happy, let them know so they can try to solve the problem in the moment.
Leave public reviews, this is such a nice way to show your appreciation and support their business.
They love it when you recommend them to your friends.❤️
