I'd strongly suggest asking your friend to visit a doctor to find out exactly what she's allergic to and to be very careful if you apply any colour. The main worry is that most skin testing policies begin with something along the lines of "Do Not colour if the client has ever had an allergy to...

It's not Olaplex as such but rather a very common ingredient which is being banned, meaning products cannot be manufactured, or sold if they contain this ingredient " Butyphenyl Methylpropionol " after the specified date. As for the Ban the UK still follows the guidance laid out by the EU in...

Apologies, I think my last reply was optimistic. From what I've read all products containing Lilial need to be withdrawn from the market after 1 March 2022! Once again I may be wrong so I'd speak to your distributor but from what I can see online it's the sellers responsibility to ensure this...

Certainly not a hoax and this is indeed being banned under UE law but I believe this will be "not allowed to manufacture products containing" rather than "not allowed to use/sell products containing". I may be wrong about the above but this has been known for a fair while now so if there's...

I'd consider quoting for Mileage at 45p per mile along with an additional charge for time travelling (at your discretion maybe £15 per hour) and then adding the hair services separately. By breaking it down this way you will be able to justify it to yourself easily and can always use this as...

I think it's an amazing idea with nothing but benefits for the business. There's an awful lot of setup involved though and it would need to be exceptionally well devised to be a success. The main advice I have is to offer tiered subscriptions based on time (rather than service type) and tier...

Hey Cpazza, when you say non toxic I think you'll struggle in all honesty. If you can provide a list of ingredients you want to avoid people could likely help more but unfortunately non toxic is such a huge scope to work within I think you're more likely to end up with opinion rather than...

Hey Sunflower, I'll be honest here and say that you're going to struggle to find a range which is truly organic, vegan and sustainable. I say this as the three requests are exceptionally difficult to merge when creating a colour. Organic is nearly impossible in the first place, this is...

Hey Stella, at the moment self employed need to claim universal credit. Just hop on the website and you can apply through there :)

I'm not sure if i'm understanding your point of view correctly here but i think OP is in the right. If a client specifies what they want, the stylist then says no it's not and assumes that because the client hasn't repeated themselves they automatically agree is a bit too strong. As stylists...

What exactly do you mean by toxins and lighteners? As there are so many options out there if you provide some examples of the specific ingredients and product types (bleach/ highlift etc) you want to avoid or reduce I'm sure someone will be able to help out some :)

Unfortunately disclaimers are very counterproductive. If a client was to sign one and then had a reaction the disclaimer itself will be used against you. This is because by offering a disclaimer you're acknowledging the potential for risk and admitting that you're not following the procedures...

I charge the same price as adults (ladies cbd £42 gents cbd £31). We've recently moved to keep prices the same as the time taken is usually comparable. I should probably mention that our salon doesn't target this market though so we may be a slight exception to the usual pricing rules.

I use them pretty often. Never had any issues at all. I'd email and follow up with a phone call. They've always been awesome to me

Your best option is to talk to the colour house you work with. Depending on the company structure used most colour lines will have either freelance educators (working on an ad-hoc basis) or an employed team covering a set territory. If you want to speak to chase this further across every...

We've used it but honestly found the savings to be underwhelming. Most were based around pre-paying for items or vouchers and receiving a % discount (think buy £150 of Tesco vouchers for £145). It's a great idea but for it to really work each individual needs to purchase vouchers and no one was...

Ahh that would make it a challenge, I'll have a think and if anything springs to mind on how to implement these offsite I'll pop it here

HI Jon, I'd personally look at the behaviour over the results. By this I mean I'd attach targets to offering the opportunity to re-book over the fact that a client has/hasn't. I suggest this as when I have tried to reward staff based on customer behaviour I always feel I'm hindering their...

Okay you caught me, You get the gist though lol
