Good salon guide

Asking the right questions

If you are not able to get a good recommendation then it’s imperative that you ask the right questions to ensure that you feel confident and comfortable with leaving your hair in the care of that stylist or salon.  Many mistakes are made when you go into a Salon and the problem lies with not knowing what to ask.

Below are some questions that we feel should make your decision a yes or a no thank you:

• How long has the Salon been established for?
• What products do they use?
• Is the establishment qualified to do deal with Hair Care? Whether you are aware or not most treatments performed on hair involves very serious chemicals, which only professionals and trained stylist should be using.

Questions that the Salon or Stylist should ask you:

• What is the history of your hair care?  (This is called a Consultation)
• What products have you been using?
• When was the last time that you had your hair professionally or self done?
• Are you on any medications? (As this can effect what products or treatments can be used on your hair)
• If you call over the phone – Have they invited you in for a full consultation before you get you hair done?

On observation of the Salon/Stylist

• Does the salon look clean?
• Are they welcoming?
• Do you feel comfortable?

We hope that this will help you in making the right decisions as you will find that a Salon is for life so when you find the right one you will build a great relationship with them.
