Beauty Parlor Cleaner

This is similar to the other question about what you liked least. To use the example from the last question, go in the opposite direction of salon activities. Since you will be up and active all day you could choose a job you had where you had to sit all day. Or you could choose one that was boring and didn't engage your interest.

I once worked as a receptionist in a dental office. It was difficult for me to stay put all day because I am much happier in a fast paced environment.

The answer you give will reflect the lens in which you see your management. She is wondering what you consider a good boss and if your views on management are something that will make her job easier or harder.

Think carefully. Don't choose the one that let the employees get away with anything!

Choose a boss that had positive qualities and provided strong leadership.

The dermal papilla is situated at the base of the hair follicle. The dermal papilla contains nerves and blood vessels which supply glucose for energy and amino acids to make keratin. A tiny bulge at the root of the hair believed to be one of the primary targets in permanent hair removal.

The combination of sweat and sebum that provides the skin’s protective coating.

There are limits to the questions that can be legally asked in a job interview. An interviewer can't ask you how many kids you have, if you have a car or any other personal questions. But that doesn't mean you should try to hide pertinent information because it will only backfire on you down the road.

You are building a relationship with a manager that you hope to work for. Don't start your beauty career off on the wrong foot. Tell her what she needs to know for the good of the salon.

An acronym for Holy Grail that denotes your "holy grail" beauty product, i.e., something so essential to your makeup routine and/or life that you'd rather get run over than see it discontinued.

No.

You are now a professional stylist and starting your beauty career. You know good and well you now work on weekends. Don't even try it.

Hiring a new employee is an investment on the part of the salon. It takes time and money to train a new hire. Stylist retention is important to owners. Losing stylists means losing clients. In a way, this question is asking "Are you worth the investment?"

That being said, ambition is a virtue.

And again, the only wrong answer is "I don't know."

Tell her how you see your professional life growth, not personal. She doesn't want to hear how you are going to be married with a new house and 2 kids, one boy, one girl.

Now is your chance to Shine! This is what they really want. They are saying, "PLEASE tell me what you are good at so I can hire you." So tell them!.

Tell them the strengths that will add value to their salon.

If you are a good cook, good for you, but it does nothing for the salon. Write down all of your strong qualities first, then tailor your answer to include your top 3-5.

She wants to know where your attention goes on the job. If you blurt out, "I loved the people I worked with," it would lead her to the idea that you are easy to get along with and a team player.

There is not necessarily a wrong answer here, but there could be a more helpful answer to lead the interviewer in the direction you want them to go. Zero in on the quality you would like to support. In the sample above, being a team player was reinforced. And that's a good one for a salon. If you want to show customer service is important to you maybe say something like, "I enjoyed making people smile when I gave them their morning coffee drink. I feel like I made their day!"

Turn a negative into a positive. Don't say anything that will throw up a red flag to the interviewer like, "I have a hard time getting places on time." If a candidate said that to me we would be done with the interview. A salon manager not only needs you at work on time but so do your clients.

Don't choose anything that could adversely affect salon life. Things like being too trusting, or being too guarded with your feelings, or taking on too much responsibility are good ones to use that won't work against you.

I had a new client who wanted her haircut but had trouble communicating what she really wanted. I showed her pictures and gave her time to think it through. I described what I recommended based on her current style and the pictures she showed me. Once we figured out what she needed, I asked her questions to get to know her and told stories I thought she might like. It can be hard to break the ice, but I've learned ways to communicate with even the most shy individuals.

Makeup application so good that it looks perfect from every angle. A good rule of thumb: If it doesn't give you life, it's not a beat face.

A protein that holds all connective tissue together under the skin. Collagen is sometimes damaged by plucking or electrolysis which can lead to dimpling on the skin. Collagen, from a plant, is also used to fill in scars and augment lips, often with temporary results.

When makeup looks so good that it gives your life new meaning and helps you get out of bed in the morning. Gigi Hadid, for instance, gives us (and probably Zayn) life on a regular basis.

A chemical based permanent waving product that has a pH from 7.5 to 9.5. Stronger than acid perms, alkaline perms are designed to produce tight, firm, springy curls rather than the looser curls produced by acid perms.

Thinning is ideal for those with thick, dense tresses who want to eliminate bulkiness. By relying on thinning shears, the process creates super-fine layers and adds dimension, says Penna. To thin with regular shears, also known as "slithering," stylists slide an open set of scissors along the shaft.

A sharp, intense colour used as a contrast or pick-up for a colour scheme. It is used to add excitement to an overall effect.

Originally the word crop was an alternative to haircut, without any specific meaning to the style of the cut. However it has come to be a description of hair that is cut very short with the hair hugging the head.

Contouring seems like a daunting task if you've never done it. The reality is it's easier than you may think. The simplest way to understand contouring is to imagine a light over your head. The areas of the face that the light will illuminate are the highlights and the areas cast in shadows are the contours. Finding the right products is easy, and may already be in your makeup collection. Use a foundation or concealer one shade darker than you skintone (the one you purchased after that last beach vacation), or a bronzer can do the trick.
