As, stylists, our minds are constantly running- balancing creativity, technique, and a lot of random thoughts along the way. From the moment you walk in, we're thinking of a million things. Here's a peek at what's really going on in our heads during your appointment.
During the Consultation:
- "This inpo pic is GORGEOUS... but it's also AI."
- "They want bangs, but they just admitted to never styling their hair...hmm."
During the Service:
- "Did I really just drop my comb AGAIN?"
- Client: "Is this product really worth is?" Me: "Yes, and I will cry real tears if you buy the drugstore version."
- "How does one person have this much hair??"
- "I can't hear over this blow dryer, I hope I didn't just laugh at something traumatic."
Styling:
- "They said they love it, but do they actually?"
- "Pictures, pictures, pictures- don't forget the after pics!"
- "They've been staring for so long... are they in love or in shock?"
- "Why does round brushing feel like an Olympic sport?"
After the Appointment:
- "I forgot the after pictures..."
- "That went great! I should eat something... oh wait, my next client is here."
- "Why is there color on my elbow... HOW!?"
- "That client was amazing. If they don't come back, I'll be heartbroken."
Being a stylist means juggling creativity, precision, and a bit of chaos- all while making sure you leave the salon looking amazing. Behind every cut, color, and style, there's a lot going on in our heads. But, at the end of the day, our priority is simple: your happiness. And if we manage to keep the blow dryer on the right setting, that's just a bonus!
