Image is everything..... How you are judged.
Charles Henson talks about his experience with test taking for the License
Sir Charles Henson came by today to tellt he class how his state licensing test went. He had information he wanted to share with the upcoming seniors as they prepare for the test. He took his time to stress how to dress for the test, and how carefully you have to plan so you are on time. His client/model cancelled at the last minute, and put him into a jam, so he arrived about 5 minutes late. Normally, the board will just tell lyou to reschedule, however, they let him proceed. He felt if he had not worn his jeans, but arrived in a nice button down shirt and slacks, he would have made a better impression. He also mentioned that because he was late, they applied visual pressure on him to do better. He also mentioned that another classmate who had arrived on time, in dress pants and shirt and tie was asked for a business card as he was leaving. Just goes to show you, dress to impress. As one of hte guys here said "Fake it until you make it".
We will miss Charles, he leaves tonight to return to Las Vegas and his kids and mom. Best wishes on your career.

85%- 15% Rule from Milady.
85% – 15% Rule
Did you know that there is a huge misconception in the beauty
& wellness industry? It has been said that your success in the shop/salon
will be based off your technical abilities. The truth is that 85% of your
success will be based off your communication skills, your people skills, and
the level of customer service that you provide to your clients. This 85% is
what we refer to as your "Soft Skills". The remaining 15% is
your technical abilities. So, how are you spending your time in school? While
working in the Student Salon make certain you communicate effectively with your
clients to discover their true needs and wants, show a sincere interest in
helping them look and feel their very best and always think of ways to create a
WOW experience for each and every customer. They will come back if they are happy.

Where will my business come from?
Have you heard of the Pareto Principle? Named after Italian economist Vilfredo Pareto, it’s also known as the 80-20 rule, the law of the vital few and the principle of factor sparsity. It’s the idea that 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes.
In business, it’s the origin of the idea that 80% of your sales come from 20% of your clients.
Thought for the day.. by Dr. Suess
You’re off to Great Places! You’re off and away!
You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You’re on your own.
And you know what you know. You are the guy who’ll decide where to go.
—Dr. Seuss, "Oh, the Places You'll Go!"
