When your client walks into your salon or barbershop for a hair system application, you want to give them the best hair systems and hair system products for their unique needs. There’s no better way to keep your clients loyal than customizing a hair system application plan (and providing top-notch expertise and services, of course!). 

Your clients might have questions about hair systems costs, the right kind of tape for hair systems for them, or hair system adhesive removers. Answering their questions and recommending the right products shows your client that they’re a priority––and they appreciate that!

Not sure what the best hair systems products are? Let’s review the client consultation process first, because that’s how you’ll discover the best Sunshine Tape hair system products to recommend to your clients.

Tips for Stylist and Client Consultations 

You want to make sure each client gets a custom-tailored hair system application, and you want to help them have the best hair systems experience possible. That’s why you have to start with a consultation! 

Here are the main points you’ll want to cover so you understand your client and their needs.

Skin Type

Get to know your client’s skin! They might need products for a sensitive scalp or to avoid allergy-causing ingredients. If you understand your client’s skin type, you’ll know what products to use for scalp prep to get the best application experience possible. (You can do a skin patch test to test hair system products on your client’s scalp, too!)

Lifestyle

Next, ask your client if they have an active lifestyle and what climate they spend most of their time in so you know how much humidity, moisture, or sweat might accumulate on the scalp or hair system. Then, you can decide what hair system products will work for them and can easily recommend the best hair systems for their lifestyle. 

Desired Hair System Wear Time

The best hair systems for your clients depend on how long they plan to wear them and the type of liquid adhesive or tape for hair they’ll need. Do they want to wear a wig or toupee? Are they interested in daily, extended, or maximum hold? 

After a successful client consultation covering these basics, you'll know exactly what hair system products, like tape for hair or hair system adhesive removers, to recommend.

How to Recommend the Best Hair System Products

Depending on what you and your client talked about during your consultation, you’re ready to recommend the best hair system products for their skin type, lifestyle, climate, and wear time. Remember that some products can work interchangeably!

Here’s what we recommend for clients with sensitive skin:

• Sunshine Skin Prep spray forms a protective layer for sensitive scalps.
• Skin Safe Acrylic Adhesive Daily Wear is a gentle liquid adhesive that dries clear.
• 1522 Tape is a daily wear tape for hair that’s medical-grade and hypoallergenic.
• Skin Safe White Glue Extended Wear holds for three to five weeks and has a skin-safe formula.
• Super Lace Tape can last from two to four weeks and has hypoallergenic properties.
• Oil Solvent is a mild oil-based hair system adhesive remover.

Got a client with an active lifestyle or one who lives in a hot climate? Here are a few recommendations:

• Any Sunshine Tape Liquid Adhesive works for clients who sweat or swim often! 
• You can suggest a synthetic wig or toupee hairpiece as the best hair systems for more breathability in higher temperatures.
• You can also tell your client that lace bases allow for increased airflow and can help reduce sweat or moisture in the hair system.
