After 23 years doing all styles I've now retired from the wedding scene I'm finding as I'm getting older I'm finding doing wedding hair is becoming more stressful. Plus I love my Saturdays to myself now.
So would you bother going on a course or just say it's not something your salon offers ?
Just curious as to how other salons handle it [emoji6]
You hate bobs? I love bobs... Hate fidgety clients who want bobs...I hate women's short cuts and bobs,
Also hair up!
Bobs and short cuts terrify me! I need more confidence in it! XYou hate bobs? I love bobs... Hate fidgety clients who want bobs...
Your so right it is hidden agenda !! And then I had to wash it as well which made hair slippy [emoji37].. All wrong from start to finish ..I hope you charged her extra fro this! I hate it when client book in for one thing and then turn up with a hidden agenda!
Nice [emoji5]️ enjoy [emoji6]After 23 years doing all styles I've now retired from the wedding scene I'm finding as I'm getting older I'm finding doing wedding hair is becoming more stressful. Plus I love my Saturdays to myself now.
I love the idea of recommending another stylist to do up dos ... Sounds really civil .. But in the real world it's a bit cut throat and I would be worried about her then trying the other stylist out for her regular colour .. [emoji47] I suppose that's business thoughI'm freelance now so can pick and choose what I do. In past few salons I was in 1 of them never was asked to do up dos/bride as city salon and other I did the occasional up do but other stylists would take the bride. I always made it clear I hate doing it. I was never pushed to do something I didn't want to do. Funny thing is when I first trained I loved doing them and was good, but absolutely loath them now. I know so many stylists who specialise in weddings and up/dos I just pass on their details.
It's what's great about being part of a team in a salon. We all have different talents and can collectively play to different strengths. I once had a client who used to say "do what you like" she liked Mohawks, shaved on one side etc and out there styles. That's really not my thing, so I had no hesitation in recommending her on to my co worker who was mad as hatter. They got on brilliantly and together produced some fun creative looks. Then one day she booked back in with me for her sisters wedding to be sorted out with softer colouring, cut and styled. I think it's great when we as hairdressers can recommend each other so the client has the perfect fit and also feels comfortable to see different stylists. Retains the client within the salon rather than going else where.
I turn down perms all the time, I can't stand doing them. gents I turn away too, hate doing them. youngsters wanting huge colour corrections (when you know they've bleached the crap out of it then box coloured over it & have no intention of maintaining what you do to them) won't do them. I really hate the combing out part after removing extensions too
I will personally pay for you to come to my salon to take that job over next time! Haha I really hate it, somethings it takes longer than actually taking the extensions out!I love the combing out after removing extensions.
