Why a hair consultation is key
The magic of a beautiful transformation doesn’t begin from the moment your stylist makes the first cut – it begins earlier than that, from the second you and your stylist connect. That conversation you have before your hair undergoes a makeover is the consultation, and it’s in that time where the magic really begins.
As a salon full of extremely talented hair artists, we can’t stress enough how important the consultation is in achieving the look you desire. During a consultation, we discuss your hair goals, personal style, and any specific concerns you might have. This conversation allows us to build a relationship and ensures that we’re on the same page. It’s not just about what looks good – it’s about what feels right for you and makes you feel your most beautiful and confident.
To prepare for an easy consultation, it’s helpful to bring in inspiration photos. But the absolute best thing you can do is to come with an open mind. Flexibility is key because hair is unique to every individual, and what looks absolutely stunning on someone else may not be what you ultimately love on yourself. We need to consider face shape, hair texture, and even lifestyle.
During our consultation, we take the time to assess your hair type, discuss your maintenance preferences, and suggest variations that will not only flatter you most, but also make you feel like a supermodel.
It often happens that clients come in with specific styles in mind, but during the consultation process it actually turns out that they’d prefer something a little different after speaking with the professionals. Consider this: if you want a bold colour change, but you’re worried about upkeep and don’t want to be coming in for monthly maintenance treatments, then you’re more likely to love a low maintenance balayage over a full colour change. And we can still make a low maintenance look feel bold and different!
The consultation we have with you also gives you the space to voice your concerns, whether you’ve had difficult experiences at other salons, have experienced hair damage, or are just unsure about making a change. Our stylists are here to support you, and carving out that time to answer your questions helps us understand your hair history and tailor a plan that will make you look and feel incredible.
We want you to leave Clique feeling infinitely better than when you walked in and to feel like your most beautiful and most confident self. So next time that you book a hair appointment with a consultation, embrace it! Lean into the consultation process and know that it’s the foundation to having your best hair yet.
