Skills
Great people skills and the ability to communicate
I possess excellent social skills required to engage with clients in a meaningful way to
build their trust and respect. In my role at Mirror & Style, I am responsible for working with
clients to discuss their needs and create hair designs, and briefing junior staff on the
techniques required to deliver the desired result. Key to client satisfaction is my ability to
carefully listen and interpret their requests, advising and guiding them when required, my
caring and positive personality, and my friendly and easy manner. My skill in this area has
been demonstrated by repeat business with more than 40 individual clients requesting
bookings with me, as well as consistent referrals.
Proven ability to lead a team
I am experienced in helping to manage a busy salon and carrying out the creative direction
established by salon owners and senior hairstylists. In my current role, I help to teach
junior hairdressers and identify the skills and capabilities of different team members, and
assign them to appropriate roles that help to achieve the best results for the salon and
clients.
Focused on networking, training and salon promotion opportunities
I have a strong drive to stay on the cutting edge of trends and new techniques.
Management consistently commends me on my commitment to training and sharing new
trends with colleagues. I am also committed to keeping up-to-date with industry events and
meeting new people to develop opportunities for promoting the salon. In my current role, I
have secured contracts for the salon to be the hair stylist of choice for major fashion
events through my continued interaction with industry leaders. I am also in charge of our
social media strategy and have developed a considerable following on Facebook .
Creativity and artistic sense
I have a proven ability to put forward creative, original ideas in situations that call for a high
degree of artistic sense to showcase our technical ability and individuality, such as during
fashion shows or hair styling competitions. My skill in this area has been acknowledged by
a prestigious industry award as well as by clients, who have consistently left positive
feedback on my styling and advice in customer satisfaction surveys.
Proven ability to achieve set sales targets
I have been able to consistently meet the sales targets set for me throughout both of my
positions as I have a strong customer focus and always ensure I have exceptional product
knowledge in order to provide the best service and products to customers. This means that
they become confident in my product advice and are interested in trialling products that I
recommend.
