EP 158: Beyond the Salon Chair: Mastering Consultations, with Crystal Green

Consultations are the key to your success as a Hairdresser. The salon chair is a sacred space for the client experience. It is important to know how we can best serve our clients without our ego preventing this. They don’t expect us to be a guru or to have all the information about every aspect of hair and world current affairs. They want to be seen, touched, feel a connection and have their hair washed/coloured/styled. Don’t overcomplicate it. We need to contribute to the happiness in their hair. We are not perfect. We don’t need to be perfect. What does the client sitting in your chair need? It’s so important to know how to use the tools and techniques with strong communication skills as a Hairstylist. I’m chatting with Podcast Host, Hair Stylist and Educator Crystal Green. Also known as Your Hair Mentor on social media and in her education biz. Crystal helps hairdressers in her coaching sessions to shift their mindset around being an artist and what hair means culturally. It’s important to then talk about who you serve, take the ego away, and become the mentor for your client in the salon environment. Working with Crystal as a coach could really help you. In this episode, we’re talking about the 3 most important aspects of a killer consultation in the salon and why it’s so important.   Listen to EP 158 of the Colour Kristina Talks Podcast for Hairdressers and Salon Owners to learn more about the sacred chair and mastering hair consultations for your client. -------------------- Want to learn more?
