Styling and colour templates for your clients

Tuesday, January 17th, 2012 by Kim Bolsover

"Kim, I was scrolling through the earlier newsletters that you sent me. I found one about ready-to-print templates and some online resources at 75% off if I purchase the complete package at this great price?

If yes, are there two different pro packages – one for colour consultancy and one for styling? 

I am a personal stylist but I offer colour consultancy as part of my service so Ideally I would like to have styling and colour template for my clients? Does the ‘Complete Resource Package for Image Professionals’ include colour forms?" Clementburga, Australia

Dear Clementburga,

Complete Resource Package for Image ProfessionalsThe Complete Resource Package contains all of the digital resources on that website.

It has been designed for image professionals already trained in colour analysis, personal style or men’s image who are looking for ready-made client handouts, ready-to-use articles, proven ready-to-implement ideas, hints and tips for marketing and building their business

The package is crammed full of content, far too much to attempt to list here, so you can browse the extended contents descriptions here.

Please note that the Complete Resource Package
is NOT a substitute for any of our training courses. 

These digital, online, downloadable resources are for consultants who already know what they’re doing!

There’s one package and it includes client handouts for seasonal and tonal colour analysis, ladies’ style personalities, men’s image, and fashion trends.

It also includes loads of articles and information about hair colour and style, and lots of business stuff too – getting started, business building, business marketing and lots of newsletters you can freely use to get your message out there.

Save a huge, enormous, incredible 75% and also get free updates for 2 whole years!

I suggest that you check the content for yourself as what you mean by ‘colour forms‘ and ‘styling and colour template for my clients‘ might be completely different from what I think you mean! If you get stuck, email me.

What prompted this horrified knee-jerk reaction?

Thursday, October 6th, 2011 by Kim Bolsover

I nipped in to Wallis recently and invested in an oh-so-Eighties black, 3/4-sleeve, bottom-covering jacket. I can almost see myself wearing it with black leggings stuffed into black, knee-high, leather boots, and being a total Dramatic.

I posted this revelation on FaceBook and ending by asking, “Wonder if I should get the perm to match…?”

Several people (clearly in distress) replied, “Oh, no, no, no!”

What prompted this horrified knee-jerk reaction?

I wonder if most are simply reacting to an ancient memory of the Eighties’ perm?  Most of us who are old enough will remember seeing (or even having) one of those bushy concoctions that dominated the late 70s and 80s.

My own first perm was in 1976 and I only had it done because I’d broken my wrist and couldn’t wash or style my Seventies’ Farrah-Fawcett-Majors’-layered flick with just one hand any more.  I needed something that I could wash and leave to dry.

I came out looking like a toilet brush. Hideous. But, the only option hair salons could offer back then was the ‘Bubble/Afro’ and I came out looking like a toilet brush. Hideous.

However by the end of the Eighties, perming was definitely an art form and I absolutely loved them.

So some TWENTY-FIVE YEARS later when I was discussing hair issues with Scott Cornwall, our expert Hair Image Consultant, he gave me a severe ticking-off for assuming all sorts of rubbish about the lack of technical progress in the hair industry during the last quarter century.

For instance, I told him, “I’d love to go blonde but I guess it would be impossible for me, with very dark hair, to do that? Actually, I’d love a perm but I guess that’s completely old hat now?”

After nearly spitting out his coffee and staring at me as though I was a complete dimwit, he told me in no uncertain terms what he thought of my unbelievably out-of-date ideas.  “What do you mean, it’s old hat?  Honestly, the nonsense that non-hairdressers talk makes me really angry.  Of course you could have a perm.  It would totally work for your hair texture and style. And you’d look fabulous as a blonde.  Your ideas of what the hair industry can and can’t do are so out of date…”

And, to prove the point, he did two things:

  1. He personally coloured my hair from dark to blonde
  2. He wrote a hugely illuminating article for us about the technical improvements in perms over the last 25 years

I quote from that, “#5. Other candidates for the perm are those who blow-dry their hair to get volume, but find the results flop after an hour or two.”

So that would be me, then!

TIP FOR YOU: If your client has fine hair and wants volume but finds that she looks like a wet rag a couple of hours later, then a perm might be the answer to her problem.

I agree with Scott.  It’s about time that image professionals ditched their old, out-of-date ideas.  After all, so many would-be-potential clients think we’re all stuck in an Eighties time warp as it is!

Let’s change that right now by learning about what’s actually available TWENTY FIVE YEARS later.
