Common Consultations Questions And Answers
Answers to common questions so you arrive prepared and confident for your consultation.
Bring photos of styles and colors you like, a list of past chemical services, product names you use, and any hair concerns. This helps your stylist assess history, set realistic goals, and create a personalized plan during your consultation.
Most color consultations take 20 to 45 minutes depending on complexity. We evaluate hair condition, previous color history, desired outcome, and treatment plan. If extensive planning or strand testing is required, more time may be scheduled.
Yes, if your stylist determines it's necessary. Strand and patch tests check compatibility, predict color results, and prevent allergic reactions. Tests are quick and increase safety and predictability for complex color changes or when using stronger lighteners.
The consultation assesses feasibility and recommends steps to reach your goal safely. In some cases, multiple sessions, bond-building treatments, or color adjustments are advised to protect hair integrity and achieve lasting, healthy results.
Consultation pricing can vary; many salons include it with booked color services or charge a nominal fee. Contact Forward Hair Lab for our current consultation policy and pricing, which can be applied to your service upon booking.
Lightly washed, natural hair is best so stylists can see texture and scalp condition. Avoid heavy styling products or oils. If you have recent treatments, mention them so we can evaluate condition accurately during the consultation.
