And now is the time of year that 20 somethings are really thinking about their style! It is graduation season and time to move on to either college or your first job. Isn't that time for a new look?
What about people like me...thirtysomethings? Maybe with kids, some at home, some at work, some working from home! Don't you sometimes feel like you have had that same haircut for years? Or you feel like you sacrificed your fashion to get that "mom" haircut? Maybe you are worried you may pop up on one of those morning show segments where they talk about owners starting to look a lot like their dogs? Yikes.

Adriana, the Hair Stylist Team Leader, said she was most impressed with the communication skills they taught the participants. She said - "There was a huge focus on consultation. Meeting every client where they are at - what will fit in their lifestyle, what is appropriate for them, what is the best communication style to find out the real needs of your clients. It really was a lot about thinking outside the box and having consultations with your clients that end with amazing results!"
