2 Consultation with Client Using Gadgets

In a modern salon, gadgets like tablets or smartphones can be used during the consultation phase for a more
interactive experience. Stylists can use these devices to:
• Showcase Hairstyle Options: Digital portfolios can help clients visualize different hairstyles and color options.
• Hair Analysis Tools: Some salons use specialized gadgets that analyze scalp health and hair quality, providing
customized product recommendations.
• Augmented Reality (AR) Apps: AR apps allow clients to virtually try on different hairstyles and colors using
a tablet or smartphone, making it easier to visualize the final look before any changes are made.

the variety of services offered, from cutting and coloring to styling and treatments.
