My Hair Stylist Doesn'T Want Me To Transition

Why your hair stylist may not be happy about you no longer coloring your hair. Julie the Hairapist will explain why your stylist might not be happy and why she will be happy and have answers.

Everybody Julie, the harpist. The question today is: why doesn't my hairdresser want me to transition, and unfortunately I love my industry, but it is so uneducated. We are not forced to be trained, so what that means is the 1600 hours that we are required to do to get our license is all about health and safety, it's not about how to actually do hair, and so what that means is when we come out Of beauty school, that's the time when we're supposed to learn it doesn't matter what industry you're gon na be, and they know some scientific numbers. Ten thousand hours four years of training is what it takes to be skilled in most businesses. Well, we only have 1600 hours in our industry, we'll let you go to work off of that and I've know 1,600 hours. Most of them are on health and safety. When I came out of the industry, the only way to get educated was to spend thousands of dollars in travel today. Luckily, our industry, you can take classes online and actually learn from your couch, but nobody will make you learn. You can go to work it most. Salons in the country, with just a beauty school license when you see someone who's been doing it for hair for 10, 20 30 years. It really doesn't mean anything. What matters is what kind of education did they have after beauty school? If all they did was just start working on people? It'S not enough. You actually need to take some classes and learn. Even I'm fine if they just sat on their couch and learned videos. There needs to be education outside of beauty school. It'S not enough. When your hairstylist is educated, she will not push back or he will not push back. They will have answers for how to transition. They'Ll have many answers for how to transition. There isn't just one way for how to transition and they will not see it as a financial hit on their income, because when you're skilled in this industry you only have two hands, so you can only work on so many people at a time when you have Skills you're more people trying to get on your books trying to get you to do their hair. Then you have people transitioning out of their chemicals or moving. You know, hairdressers, we don't own humans, so humans move. They try a different hairstylist, but when you have skills, it doesn't matter because you have so many other people that are trying to come in. Unfortunately, the answer to why hairdressers pushed back his skills - and it's also the answer to why they don't make enough money. It'S the answer to everything I used to tell people. I never marketed my business. I had a salon for over 15 years. I never did marketing for my business, your clients or your marketing, your clients or your advertising. Your clients will send you more people, and better-qualified hairs are hair clients than any ad than any coupon ever will skills. That'S the answer. Hope you had an awakening for my horrible industry. I love it with a passion but wow. If I could fix that one part of my industry, I would fix that education. Alright hope you have an awesome day, growing out or transitioning or if you've already been there, and you know what it took to get there and you want to chime in and cheer someone on. Please do have a great day from your campus

Sonerila: When I told my hairdresser I was considering growing out my gray, she said I did't have "good gray" so I gave up the idea. Another hairdresser said I didn't have much gray hair, but now that I'm beginning to grow it out (thanks to your videos), I've discovered I am mostly gray & it appears to be a pretty silvery color. That only leads me to believe those two hairdressers didn't want to lose their monthly income from my cut/color/weave/blow out/tip. Hope I'm wrong.

mbmotto: At my next appt I am dropping this bomb on my hair stylist. I had mentioned it a while back way before I was ready but her reaction was clear that she doesn’t like that. I don’t know if she is anti-gray in an age way or if she was saying it would be bad on me. I’ve come to decide I’m sick of thinking I can’t wear styles/color etc bc what I have isn’t good enough. I have curly hair that is pretty fine but I am ready to give my silver a chance to shine. I am hoping that my hair stylist’s response will be trying to help me achieve a smooth transition and helpful as opposed to distaste for my choice on my head.

R Andino: How long did it take you to arrive to a full grey hair?
