BEFORE A CONSULTATION

THE BEAUTY SERVICE BOOK / BAI

Come with an intention.
Leave room for a discussion.

A useful first enquiry connects the service, setting and open question without sharing unnecessary private information.

01

Describe why you are asking

Name the service question or occasion you want to discuss. Add a broad place and timing context when relevant. The provider can explain what is offered and which further information belongs in their actual consultation process. Do not assume that an image contains a complete brief.

02

Keep a reference attributable

If a public reference helps, identify the creator and original location and explain what you noticed. Share only what you can authorise. The reference opens a discussion; it is not an agreed specification or a guarantee that another person’s result can or should be reproduced.

03

Ask what the agreement includes

Discuss scope, responsible person, location, timing, financial terms and changes directly with the provider. Understand which response confirms an appointment and what remains open. The directory operator does not make the agreement or guarantee a professional’s availability.

04

Use the appropriate contact route

Keep health histories, identifying case records and confidential project material out of a general enquiry. Ask how the provider handles relevant information through their own process. Questions outside a beauty professional’s actual scope should go to an appropriately qualified professional.

05

Review before sharing

A private brief helps make your wording clear. Choose whether to download or print it, then decide separately how and with whom to share. The tool does not send, publish, reserve time or approve a service.

Take a clearer question with you.
