What should be taken into account when selecting products for clients?

When selecting products for clients, taking into account their individual hair and scalp conditions is essential for effective and personalized care. Each client presents unique hair types, textures, conditions, and concerns, such as dryness, oiliness, color-treated hair, or scalp issues like dandruff or sensitivity. By understanding these factors, a cosmetologist can recommend products that will best address the client's specific needs, leading to healthier hair and a more satisfying salon experience.

Choosing products based solely on age and gender, current market trends, or price may not account for the unique characteristics of a client’s hair and scalp, which are crucial for achieving the best results. Products that are effective for one demographic may not be suitable for another due to the inherent differences in hair structure and scalp health. Therefore, a tailored approach based on individual conditions is paramount in product selection.
