They may need several colours, treatments, or just time to allow their hair to grow. Creating a hair plan for them enables your clients to become part of the journey and by knowing what they need done at each visit, they can better budget.<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hair plans should be made as part of the consultation process. They should be made together with your client and be the result of a detailed consultation. By including them in the process, they will feel more in control in their hair journey and it can help to increase loyalty.<br \/>\nYou can record the plans onto cards or small sheets that you and they can keep; or if you have a salon computer system you could add the plan as a note next to their client record so that you are able to email it out to them. On their plan, lay out the cost for each visit &#8211; you can even offer a discount if they sign up for the complete plan. Adding a space for a home care regime can also help to increase retail sales and means your clients can perform care services themselves with take home masks and treatments.<\/p>\n<p>You can combine hair plans with your &#8216;recommend a friend scheme&#8217; and offer any new clients a free hair plan as part of their consultation. It shows the professionalism of your salon and the level of service you give to your clients. Even if they don&#8217;t take you up on it or they don&#8217;t rebook straight away, it&#8217;s something that they will definitely remember and it will set you apart.<\/p>\n<p>If you think it&#8217;s something that could work for you or if you&#8217;ve tried something similar, let us know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If a client chooses a particular style from a magazine or lookbook, they may not be able to achieve it in one visit.
