Before recommending a product or service to a client, make sure that it is suitable. If you give an incorrect recommendation, and the client has a reaction or feels it is unsuitable, it can have a very negative effect upon the reputation of yourself or your salon. Therefore be quick to pick up on each individual client’s needs and be aware of the legislation regarding products and services that your salon offers.
