Q&A with Jose Garcia, Independent Hair Stylist

For many people, a trip to the salon is a way to enjoy some "me time." What supplemental courtesies do you offer to make guests feel relaxed?
We have a beautiful waiting area with a large selection of magazines. We also offer coffee and cookies, when available.

Part of being a good stylist is mastering the art of conversation. What are some pro tips for talking to strangers?
Look them in the eyes that way they feel they are connected with you.

Is there anything else you want to add that we didn't cover?
I use hydro enzymes in all of my hair coloring services. Hydro enzymes are natural stabilizing enzymes derived from organic elements. The molecules are much smaller and gentler than a traditional peroxide-based developer, which can often damage the hair. They leave the hair with a true color, less fading, no cuticle burn while creating better shine and coverage in less time. This is the first complex developer that will enrich and enhance your hair color.
