What happens during the hair & Grooming Analysis?

This service applies the color, fit, and style principles from the image portfolio and feasibility to both hair and grooming styles. The hair analysis will reveal the best hairstyles, hair color (if applicable), and maintenance to match your lifestyle. The grooming analysis will reveal if your current facial hair, visible body hair, skincare, and scent are the most optimal to your image including your facial features, regular maintenance, and style personality.

The Hair Analysis Process:

• Based on the fit (body & line) analysis, your image consultant will play with style and hair-part placement to flatter your face shape and features. By considering your bone structure, your hair texture and your amount of hair, she will show you visual examples of the hair cut you need to enhance your overall appearance.

• By considering your style personality from the style analysis, your image consultant will make suggestions for styling that would match who you are. She will also consider the goal analysis to make sure the hairstyle would be feasible to maintain for your lifestyle and send the right message based on your personal and or professional goals.

• While this may not apply to all men, hair dye is still to be considered especially when facial hair is a different color from your head of hair. Based on the color analysis, your image consultant will first discuss color tone and hair dye placement to flatter your natural skin-tone. She will hold up different sample hair swatches near your face to compare color shades.

• All the notes and or pictures will be logged in your image portfolio.

Benefits of the Hair Analysis

Usually men have the habit of going to their barber and trusting the barber to decide the cut. With trends, potential misunderstanding and trial and error, men spend money on cuts that do not make them feel like themselves or left unsure if it is their best. If this is you, you’re going to love the hair analysis!

The hair analysis gives clarity of what will look good on you by using the image consultation fundamentals of color, fit and style. You will learn why other styles do not flatter you, so you do not have to keep learning by trial and error. Plus, if you are thinning in your hair, you will learn how to create the appearance of more hair. For those who have lost their hair, we still recommend this service to evaluate grooming.

For an added service, your image consultant can directly communicate to your barber or hair stylist by providing a sample hair swatch, inspiration photos, and give the basic instruction of what was discussed in your hair analysis (see price below). Or your image consultant can recommend her favorite barber or hair stylist for your needs depending on your location.

The Grooming Analysis Process

• You will arrive at your image consultation with your hair and facial hair styled as you normally would.

• Your image consultant will analyze if your grooming routine flatters your facial features and will give you tips on how to shape your beard and eyebrows to look natural but enhancing to your overall image.

• You will need to express what is realistic in your daily maintenance. However, you may be encouraged to maintain eyebrow threading, waxing, more regular shaving, nail care, or trips to the barber for grooming especially behind the neck.

• You may be encouraged to purchase different products that can help the texture of your hair and beard, as well as skincare and teeth whitening.

• You will learn how much cologne to apply and receive feedback if the scents you use in cologne, aftershave, or hair products reflect the message you want to send in your overall image.

Benefits of the Grooming Analysis

Even though men may have quicker routines than women, they still have routines that enhance their overall image. We know the details matter because they signify self-care. The more strategically groomed you are, the more you will convey authority, financial security, and confidence. A lot of men do not get the professional feedback on how to tweak their grooming techniques to be more attractive. This custom service helps you know what you can do with the natural hair and features you have to match the message you want to send through your appearance and adapt to your lifestyle. Plus, your image consultant will help you know your options for how to accentuate or camouflage your facial features with the right grooming techniques.
