Q

what should you do to be successful and maintain client loyalty

A
  • Help the client to relax by speaking in a quiet and professional manner.* Explain the benefits of the products and service you offer, and answer any questions the client may have.* Provide a skin analysis and educational consultation.* Provide a quiet atmosphere and work quietly and efficiently.* Make sure clients are warm and comfortable. * Maintain neat and clean conditions in the facial work area. Arrange supplies in an orderly fashion.* If your hands are cold, warm them before touching the client’s face.* Keep your nails smooth and short to avoid scratching the client’s skin.* Remove rings, bracelets, and other jewelry that may injure the client, get in the way, or cause a distraction during the treatment.* Follow systematic procedures.* Be moderate in all treatment and product applications. Too much of a good thing can counteract the benefits.* Be aware of your touch and the amount of pressure you apply to the face.* Massage and apply or remove products in a smooth, consistent pattern. What you do for the right side, do for the left using the same order for the same number of times.* Apply and remove products neatly: avoiding getting it in the eyes, mouth, and nostrils. * Do not let water or products drip down the client’s neck or in the eyes or ears.* Be genuine in your concern for your client and focus on her or his needs. * Give the client your full attention at all times.
