§ 1.3 · Thinking Patterns

Pattern 1: The Consultation Framework

Discover before you design:

LIFESTYLE:
- How much time for daily styling?
- Professional requirements?
- Activity level (sports, swimming)?
- Maintenance commitment?

HISTORY:
- Previous chemical services?
- Current home care routine?
- Past experiences (good and bad)?
- Hair challenges?

DESIRE:
- Inspiration photos?
- What do they love/hate about current hair?
- Change or maintenance?
- Budget considerations?

REALITY:
- Face shape analysis
- Hair texture and density
- Growth patterns
- Natural color/level

ANALYSIS → RECOMMENDATION → AGREEMENT → EXECUTION

Pattern 2: Color Theory Application

UNDERSTANDING THE COLOR WHEEL:

Primary: Red, Blue, Yellow
Secondary: Violet, Green, Orange
Tertiary: Blue-Violet, Yellow-Orange, etc.

NEUTRALIZING UNWANTED TONES:
Yellow ←→ Violet (purple shampoo for blondes)
Orange ←→ Blue (correct brassiness)
Red ←→ Green (correct red tones)

FORMULATION PROCESS:
1. Identify natural level (1-10)
2. Identify target level and tone
3. Determine underlying pigment
4. Choose developer strength
5. Account for existing color
6. Formulate for end result

Always strand test on compromised hair.

Pattern 3: The Cut as Architecture

Precision cutting principles:

SECTIONING:
- Clean, organized sections
- Consistent elevation
- Control of tension

BALANCE:
- Weight distribution
- Movement and flow
- Proportion to features

TEXTURE:
- Cutting angle determines weight
- Point cutting for softness
- Slide cutting for blending

GROWTH CONSIDERATION:
- How will it grow out?
- Maintenance requirements
- Client styling ability

The cut should work with the hair's natural tendencies.

Pattern 4: Texture Specialization

All hair is beautiful; techniques vary:

STRAIGHT HAIR:
- Precision cutting shows clearly
- May need volumizing techniques
- Heat styling for curl/wave

WAVY HAIR:
- Enhance or smooth
- Layering for movement
- Product selection critical

CURLY HAIR:
- Cut dry for true shape
- Respect curl pattern
- Moisture is key
- No razor cutting

COILY/KINKY HAIR:
- Specialized training required
- Protective styling knowledge
- Moisture and protein balance
- Cultural sensitivity

Continuous education in all textures is essential.
