Before Your Consultation

To make the most of our time, take a few minutes to review my work so you can better understand different lengths, textures, and methods.

Website: yourwebsite.com

Have a few inspiration photos saved or questions ready so we can stay focused and productive.

Hair Must Be Fully Visible

Your natural hair must be completely out so I can properly assess:
• Density
• Length
• Texture
• Edges / hairline

If you are currently wearing braids, a wig, or extensions, you will need to reschedule.
I cannot give an accurate recommendation without seeing your natural hair.

Consultation Time

Hair Preparation (Read Carefully)

You have the option to arrive with your hair already washed to shorten your appointment time.

If you choose to wash your hair beforehand:
• Do NOT use conditioner (leave-in or rinse-out)
• Do NOT use oils or heavy products
• Hair must be clean and free of residue

If there is any oil, buildup, or product on the hair, it will need to be shampooed again before we begin.

If you prefer, your hair can be fully prepped during your appointment.

All final prep (blow drying, straightening, trimming) will be done before the install begins.

———

Time Expectations (Plan Accordingly)

K-Tip installs are detailed and cannot be rushed.

Example schedule:
Start time: 10:00 AM
Latest completion: 7:00 PM

Please plan your day accordingly.

Note for stylists using this template:
Adjust this timeframe based on your speed and experience level.

Payment

Remaining balance is collected during the appointment.

Preferred:
• Zelle
• Cash

Non-preferred methods may include a processing fee.

Please come prepared to avoid delays.

After Your Install

If you are local, it is recommended to schedule your maintenance appointment in advance to keep your install looking its best.

A Note for Students

If your clients are confused, something was not clearly communicated.

This system is designed to prevent that.
