Hi hair geeks, would just grateful for your input into this, if it would even be possible...

I have a make-up studio, just focusing on make-up application, however I was thinking of taking someone in on a Friday & Saturday just to do things like hair curling, up-do's etc so that I could offer it as package with the make up. I don't have anything set up for doing hair, so is it even realistic without a sink for washing hair?

Thank you for your input xox

It is possible, just ask the client to pre shampoo the hair before arrival :) it would be tricky, but it could work. :)
 
It could work well I think. If I'm doing a hair up then I usually prefer the client doesn't have freshly washed hair so that it isn't all wispy and fly away, as for curling too you don't need a sink and I don't see it as a problem people coming in with their hair pre washed! X
 
I never put hair up freshly washed , I always say evening before, so much nicer to manage, go for it. I have packages for hair & make up, but I'm mobile & I have another lady come with me if anyone books in for hair & make up x
 
Thanks very much for all the help geeks! Think I will take on someone temporary to start with + see how it goes

Now for another question, when I'm advertising is it a hair stylist I'm looking for? + to what level/qualification? Thanks again xox
 
You need a minimum of Level 2 qualification. Either with City and Guilds, VCTC, NVQ or VRQ. :) Anything like "Level 1 VRQ" is a no no, as they are not qualified. :)
