New in town or just looking for a change? Tired of the rut you are in and needing a new hairstyle? If your current stylist is in a rut, probably you are too. Time for something new!
Switching stylists within the salon can be uncomfortable. So most women go looking for a new salon. Generally this is good advice. A few salons, like Frederick William Salon in Santa Maria have a culture of suggesting the client move to another stylist within the salon if stylist #2 can better serve the needs of the client. If that's you, take a look at the recommended stylist: their own hair, the styles they are crafting for their clients, their service manner and personality. This will give you a pretty good indication of whether you will be happy or not.
If you are looking for a new salon do a drop-in visit. Sit in the reception area for a bit. From this vantage point you can evaluate:
1. Cleanliness and order: This is always an indicator in what you can expect in services.
2. Tone of interaction between stylists - positive and team-spirited or filled with competition and gossip: If you are going to invest some of your precious time and money here, you want the atmosphere to be positive and nurturing, not one that leaves you drained.
3. Evidence of mentoring - a more experienced stylist giving advice to one less experienced. This is fine assurance of quality control. Stylists in this salon are dedicated to everyone leaving satisfied, even one another's clients.
4. Manner in which the calls are received - professional and helpful or haphazard: You want to know your calls will be well handled if you decide this is your place.
5. Demeanor of the clients being served - relaxed and satisfied or in a hurry to get the process over with: Clients who have been heard and are getting the service they want are peaceful and comfortable in the salon.
6. General condition of hair on the stylists and on the clients - healthy and shiny or damaged and tired looking: You want to be certain that the care of your hair is a primary value. Looking at the heads of hair coming past you should give you a pretty good idea on this. Looking at the hair products available for sale is also a good indicator. Can you purchase a detergent free shampoo? Are there treatments for colored or damaged hair?
7. Styles given the clients - current and becoming to each woman: If everyone walks out looking the same, leave.
Assuming the salon has passed your test, look for the stylist you believe would best fit your needs. Check to see if they will give you a free consultation on what you need and want. Most good stylists are happy to do this. They want you satisfied. Based on the consultation you will probably want to give this salon, this stylist a try. So book the appointment and enjoy the adventure of a new look.
