Individual approach to each client: step by step
V.S.: The individual approach consists of several stages. The first thing you should always pay attention to – psychological contact between the master and the client: this includes both subordination and personal psychological characteristics of a person. Second, this is the desire and goal of the client: what request did the person come to us with. It is mutually decided whether this is possible, whether such hair has the potential to achieve the desired result for this procedure. The third stage is the definition of hair structure, its type, features. It is not possible to fit all clients into one template.

Next comes description of the planned procedure – what it is, what steps it consists of, what materials and brand will be used. The client must be aware of what will happen to his hair.
What is the hair structure
V.S.: Hair is the conductor of our pores. Each hair consists of three parts: the inner part – medula, intermediate part – cortex, surface protective layer – cuticle. Hair 90% consists of protein – keratin. Proteins are made up of amino acids linked by polypeptide chains.

V.S.: To keep them from breaking up, there are hydrogen, disulfide, ionic (salt) bonds.
V.S.: Disulfide bond – this is a strong chemical bond, which is very different from physical hydrogen and ionic bonds. It connects the sulfur atoms of two neighboring amino acids cysteine to create one – cystine. Cystine, on the other hand, combines two protein chains into one.
When such a connection is broken, it is almost impossible to restore it.
Hydrogen bonds are destroyed by water and temperature. Ionic or saline bonds depend on the pH of the hair, so they are easily broken by strong alkaline and acidic solutions.
Hair types: how to determine yours without the help of a master
