Responsibilities of hairdressers in Battersea

Posted by Johny Dean on October 12th, 2014

Hairdressers are professionals whose main occupation is to enhance their clients’ appearance by providing them with a hairstyle that make them look good. This can be done by cutting their hair, arranging it in a new manner or by changing its colour.

But this is the main responsibility of an experienced hairdresser who already has a diploma or certification that allows him to perform hairdressing as a profession. Until a rookie becomes a hairdresser, an apprenticeship needs to take place.

This means that an inexperienced apprentice has the responsibility to learn everything his master tells him. This can be easily done by helping a seasoned hairdresser with bookings, cleaning, answering phones or shampooing clients.

Once the apprenticeship is over, rookies become hairdressers themselves. With this, a new series of responsibilities comes along, such as teaching new rookies about the art of hairdressing, knowing the current trends in fashion and hairstyling and learning on a permanent basis.

Here is how a person who was once an apprentice can become a professional teaching other people how to cut hair, change someone's hair colour or create new hairstyles designed to enhance their clients’ appearance.

Hairdressers in Battersea know what hairstyle is the most appropriate for a person, depending on the shape of their face, the garment they plan to wear and also the event where they are going. At the same time, they know what tools and cosmetics to use to create a certain hairstyle.

Speaking of cosmetics, another responsibility that hairdressers in Battersea have is represented by the constant learning of new cosmetics that appear on the market. Shampoos, hair dyes, lotions, creams, masks, all these need to be very well known and also tested by a hairdresser.

Some hairdressers offer their services to everybody, while others are solely mens hairdressers Battersea, for example. In this case, their responsibility is to notify their clients that they offer hairdressing services only to a certain category of clients, to avoid misunderstandings.

Mens hairdressers Battersea can do this by posting a large sign at the entrance to their shop and also by promoting their services online with a focus on hairdressing services for men, not for women, children or pets.

Besides working with natural hair, hairdressers can also have the responsibility of styling wigs for people who wear them daily or for artists who perform on stage and need to have a spectacular appearance.

Finally, hairdressers have the responsibility of working with sanitised tools and high-quality cosmetics, maintaining good relationships with their clients, and respecting their appointments. And, of course, they also need to look neat, to inspire their clients and increase the level of credibility.
