Thanks Chrissy
I really appreciated your time today. Where has a hair coach been all my life?!
Your passion project business is absolutely awesome and I encourage you to keep at it!Salons really do need to change to meet our needs, especially as we age and change. Many of us are happy to pay for excellent advice and good products. Keep putting the word out!It's got to catch on because it's a really needed service for no doubt many of us. Like any great new idea it can be slow to take root, but once it does it will grow. Change is hard and status quo will push back, but it won't take much once you get one Salon on board, then two...

What people say about the
Your Hair Coach© Method
This is one of those training sessions I wish I had done 20 years ago! But it didn’t exist 20 years ago. It has taken my confidence in a consultation to another level. This was such a valuable experience for me and my team. It has taught me to trust myself more. To be more patient with clients and myself.
Chrissy you are a great teacher. You have managed to create a wonderful course to help your fellow hairdressers become the best they can be. You are a wonderful listener and attentive to the person you’re talking to.
Every part of this course was interesting and thought provoking. The explanations of theories and concepts were so interesting.
We use a few of these in our salon for reference. These help remind me to be present and focus on the process and what the client is saying.
The Beautiful You Hair Experience is exactly what I want to be offering to my existing clients and to new clients. It’s an excellent opportunity to add this service to our service menu.
I think the training program was perfect.
The whole course is , enjoyable, well thought out and in depth where it needs to be.
The content was interesting. I learnt so much about aligning my thoughts/gut/heart.
Trusting myself to do what I know am able to.
The one on ones were really good to talk with you about what’s going on. Just having a confidant and a friend who understands the ins and outs of business.
Doing this course has help me bring up certain things in a consultation with not only new clients but my regular clients as well.
Feeling more confident in myself and in my questions.
How you present yourself when you first meet a new client, I think just by adding a wash, treatment and dry to a consultation gives you more time with them and also shows that you care not only about there hair but also about them and how they are feeling.
Yes I would feel confident doing the Beautiful You Hair Experience in salon, Chrissy did an amazing job, she knows how to help you understand without you having to say a word. An amazing amazing woman!
This course is a 10/10 from me.
I really enjoyed my experience with Chrissy’s hair coach training. I learnt about how to match my energy to clients and work colleagues to make me feel closer to them on a personal level. The content Chrissy showed us was insightful and valuable.
What really stood out was the Inner Compass tool to connect with my higher self to become more focused and confident in my work to achieve great results. I really liked how the Beautiful You Hair Experience we learnt how to run, was so in-depth and gave the client more understanding of what we are doing with our products and for them to know how much we care about their hair journey.
I feel confident to launch myself into this service now that I’ve had Chrissy’s training. I also loved the one-on-one sessions which Chrissy got to know me and how I felt while in salon, she did an amazing job helping me to understand myself as a hairdresser and how to overcome obstacles and challenges in my work and home life.
I would highly recommend the Your Hair Coach Training Method to any hairdresser looking to boost their confidence in salon.
FAQ
In a standard ‘cut and blow wave’ appointment you might have say 5 to 10 minutes to discuss the client’s needs. And while you might try to share some helpful tips, there’s simply not enough time to educate and empower the client to really understand her hair.
While we recommend Organic Colour Systems products, you can choose to offer any quality brand that provides clarify, hydration, protein and normal hair options.
