6 ways to Smash Your Salon Trade Test and land your dream job!

Hey sweet!

Ready to slay that dream job in the perfect salon? πŸ’‡β€β™€οΈβœ¨

We've got your back, we will spill the tea on acing your trade test and landing that coveted spot.

1. Communication is key

Don't be shy! Reach out to the salon and ask about the nitty-gritty details. What should you bring?

What needs covering? No question is too extraβ€”show them you're all about that communication game. Queens ask questions, and we're here for it!

2. Model Matters

Your model is your ride-or-die in this journey. Choose someone reliable you don't want them ghosting on test day. If a cancellation emergency happens, don't stress; just contact the salon owner to reschedule. Time is precious, and we want you to shine, not stress.

3. Keep it Simple, Slay it Right 🌈:

When it comes to colours, less is more. Avoid turning a blondie into a pink surprise (been there, done that). Stick to what you know, slay the basics and avoid the ick moments. Remember, even if things go a bit off-course, own it. We all make mistakes, it's about showcasing your problem-solving skills..

4. No One's Perfect πŸ’–:

Embrace imperfections and showcase your problem-solving magic. If things take an unexpected turn, flaunt your ability to handle it like a pro. Confidence is key, and a re-do is just another way to show your problem solving skills.

5. Research is Key πŸ”:

Going solo but unsure about what the salon favours colour wise? Ask about their colour line and then dive into some research at home. Knowledge is power and it shows you're serious about bringing the right vibes to the team.

6. Pack Your Kit

Ready to slay?

Pack your equipment, the hair dryer, straighteners, curling iron, scissors combs, and don't forget that trusty pin tail comb. Be the stylist with the tools, ready to conquer any hair challenge.

So you’re now armed with the secrets to nailing that trade test.
