When performing a blowout on textured hair, I prioritize hydration and moisture. I typically use a round brush for tension alongside a high-quality heat protectant product to reduce frizz and enhance shine. I also tailor my technique by adjusting the heat settings and the angle of the blow dryer, ensuring that the final look is smooth while maintaining the client's natural texture.

I have experience working with various textured hair care lines specifically designed to nourish and enhance natural curls. I understand the importance of using sulfates-free products and those that provide deep conditioning. I'm knowledgeable about recommending products that align with each client's hair type and needs, which adds to their experience at the salon.

I take hygiene very seriously in the salon environment. I consistently sanitize my tools before and after use, including brushes and combs. Additionally, I ensure that workstations are cleaned regularly and that any spillages are addressed promptly to maintain a clean and safe environment for clients and staff.

My approach to upselling focuses on being genuine and informative rather than pushy. I assess each client’s needs and offer suggestions that will truly benefit them, such as recommending a deep conditioning treatment for dry hair. I believe in building relationships with clients, and they are more likely to appreciate personalized recommendations that reflect their unique hair goals.

I actively stay informed on the latest hair trends by participating in continuing education courses, following industry leaders on social media, and attending trade shows. I also enjoy collaborating with fellow stylists, exchanging ideas and techniques that can ultimately benefit my clients and help refine my skills.

In a busy salon environment, there are often moments when things can get overwhelming, especially during peak hours. I recall a particular day when I had back-to-back appointments. I stayed calm, prioritized my tasks, and communicated effectively with clients, ensuring they felt attended to. I also made sure to manage my time efficiently to maintain a steady flow during those busy hours.

While many skills are crucial, I believe communication is the most vital for a Hair Stylist. Understanding a client's vision and being able to convey options effectively creates the foundation for a successful hairstyle. Listening skills allow you to build trust and ensure clients leave satisfied, which is essential for repeat business.

My customer service philosophy centers around creating an exceptional experience for every client. I believe in treating customers with respect, being attentive to their needs, and making them feel valued in every interaction. Being genuine and approachable creates a welcoming atmosphere that encourages clients to return.

I am motivated by my passion for helping people feel beautiful and confident in their hair. Seeing a client’s reaction after a successful styling session is one of the most rewarding aspects of my job. Also, having opportunities for continued education and growth drives my ambition to excel in this profession.
