Consultation
wheel

Using this wheel will help you to cover all important elements of the consultation process

How do we find out what the clients wants?

Identify client requirements

How do we find out what a client what the client would like to have done???

• Questioning

• Visual aids

• Reviewing colour card to find out colour history

By identifying the clients requirements, you can then start to think about the best colouring technique to use.

Identify factors which may influence
the service

Once you have identified the client requirements, you need to make sure the service can be carried out.

In for group write as many factors as you can think of, and how they impact on the service.

REMEMBER we are looking at colour services so these factors must be relevant to a colour service

Factors and the impact on the colour service

Factors

Skin tone

Existing colour

Life style

Strength of peroxide

Haircut

Porosity

Density

Percentage of white hair

Client requirements

Sequence of application

Identify factors that may influence the service

As well as factors, we also need to consider contra indications. Remember, contra indications will limit or prevent a service from being carried out.

• History of previous allergic reaction to colouring products

• Other known allergies

• Skin disorders

• Incompatible products

• Medical advice or instructions

• Evident hair damage

• Age restrictions

Identify factors that may influence the service

History of previous allergic reaction to colouring products

• A client with a history of reactions is more at risk to reactions in the future. Alternative services should be offered avoiding application directly to the scalp

Other known allergies

• These clients may be more sensitive to ingredients in colouring products. You must check what they are allergic to and then offer alternative services if necessary.

Identify factors that may influence the service

Skin disorders

• Skin disorders will prevent colour services being carried out in some cases. Colour services should NOT be carried out if the client has an infection or infestation or broken or bleeding wounds. Clients with eczema and psoriasis can have their hair coloured as long as the area is not experiencing a flare up.

• Incompatible products

  • If there are products on the client’s hair which are incompatible with colouring products the service must not be carried out. Alternative services could be offered.

Identify factors that may influence the service

Medical advice or instructions

• If a client has medical advice this must always be followed.

Evident hair damage

• If the hair is damaged, you must avoid carrying out additional chemical services. Consider kinder colouring services if the hair would allow while you treat the condition

Age restrictions

• If the colour manufacturer states the colour cannot be carried out on under 16 you cannot carry out the service. This would be in breach of the manufacturer's instructions and could mean your insurance is invalid if an issue was to arise.

What tests should be carried out for colouring services

Hair tests

• Elasticity

• Porosity

• Incompatibility

• Skin test

• Colour test

• Strand test
