1. Punctuality is Key

3. Take note of products and tools being used.
- If a professional needs them to achieve your look, so do you!
4. Ask the stylist for tips

5. Rebook your appointment
- This enables you to get the date and time that suits you best.
6. Don’t hesitate to mention something you’re not happy with
- A good stylist will aim to please, so your feedback is crucial.
