Analyze the consultation goal

Using the Hair Consultation knowledge point
The primary purpose of any cosmetology consultation is to understand the client's needs, assess their hair's current state, and determine the safest, most effective service plan.

Evaluate the options

Using the Hair Analysis knowledge point

• Determine whether a prospective client will be able to pay...: Financial screening is not the primary clinical or technical purpose of a professional hair consultation.
• Check if the client is fine with the use of a curette: A curette is a medical or nail care tool (used to scrape skin or clean under nails), not a tool used in natural hairstyling.
• Perform a detailed hair and scalp analysis: This is a critical step during a consultation to check for scalp diseases, hair texture, elasticity, and density before performing any natural hairstyling service.
• Prepare the tools that will be required...: Tool preparation occurs after the consultation is complete and the service plan has been agreed upon.

Using the Hair Analysis and Hair Consultation knowledge points
