Why Many Stylists Often Fear Haircoloring 

The biggest reason anyone is ever afraid is lack of knowledge. Timid about attempting haircoloring, stylists often discourage people from trying a tint or color effect. Yes, this strange phenomenon occurs more times than you would think! Stylists have actually talked customers out of trying color, resulting in the loss of larger service revenues, retail sales, and eventually the loss of the client, who is dis-appointed by not receiving the service requested. Other reasons stylists are afraid to try color or suggest it to clients are: a previous experience that was a disaster, lack of confidence arising from lack of experience, and fear of client rejection with the finished look. Either they don't know what to do with colors or they are afraid to try! Fear keeps the potentially successful stylist from becoming a true technician.
