By Linda DeLoatch

DeLoatch is a hair expert. Her
enthusiasm to better-solve thinning hair and hair loss has made her the “go
to” hair person in Virginia Beach. A sensitive touch is essential. Below you
can find five points you should consider when choosing a professional to
care for your hair loss or thinning hair needs. Her mission is to help
people find solutions for hair restoration and hair replacement while at the
same time respecting their privacy at a low key salon. She has over 27 years
in the hair replacement industry and has dedicated most of her adult life to
hair styling. She feels as though the biggest challenge is getting customers
through the door the salon the first time.
1.
Do they take the time to listen? A
consultation, done properly, should take at least 60-minutes.
This time is necessary to allow you to feel comfortable and the
clinician to understand your concerns.
So, on your first visit you should plan for a
60-minute consultation with me and my trained hair loss specialists.
Also, you should bring your significant other or a friend to help you
reach a decision about the best procedure needed to fulfill your needs and
to see the artistic expertise of the staff.
2.
Do
they supply education on hair restoration or replacement option?
A
well-trained and highly experienced hair restoration artist will listen to
your story, assess your situation, and tailor an appropriate plan for your
lifestyle. The staff will want you to
understand the causes of your hair loss and supply you with the information
necessary to make a knowledgeable decision.
3.
Do they provide comfort and privacy with the
staff and office environment?
They should understand that the call
you make from home or work is not always made in the privacy you need so
your appointment should be made without too many questions. When answering
your telephone messages they should only confirm the time and date of your
appointment or report “your order is in, please call”.
Upon entering you should be greeted and invited to a private
consultation room where the environment is clean and serene and decorated
with fresh flowers. If you need
more privacy you can use the Salon employee entrance. Also, there should be
plenty of “at-home options” as well.
4.
Do they recommend follow-up appointments and/or
check-ups as needed?
They should want you to feel
self-assured about your appearance and the person you see in the mirror each
morning. Depending on the hair
restoration or hair replacement treatment option that is right for you, they
will need to measure progress and make adjustments if necessary to see to it
that you get satisfactory results.
5.
Are they qualified to keep you abreast of new technology?
Your stylist should
distill information from multiple sources, such as trade technology seminar
publications and the internet, making sure proper products and or materials
are available for clients.
