Client ConsultationAn essential element to any color service is to conduct a thorough consultation with the client. The following factors are important to consider during the consultation:
n Texture can affect the color’s ability to penetrate the hair shaft.
n Porosity determines absorption and distribution of color along the strand.
n Elasticity helps decide if hair is strong enough to accept color.
n Density helps determine the amount of product needed to cover all strands.
n Chemical History must be examined closely.Relaxers, Permanent Waving, previously color treated hair, and Decolorizing will affect color selection and processing time. To insure accurate results a strand test is recommended.
