Synopsis

It is often said that hairdressers are the nation's unofficial therapists and have historically been part of ‘confessional booths’. This unwritten responsibility can sometimes leave those in the industry feeling out of depth or overwhelmed.

As creatives, we are constantly investing in various ways to improve our technical skills, but are we ignoring the part of the profession that comprises a huge part of the service?The emotional intelligence and psychology involved in the every day life of serving the public is often overlooked and taken for granted.

The national qualification for hairdressing covers technical ability, practical skills, and theory on the science of hair. None of the modules on the curriculum, however, cover the equally essential part of the profession; connecting with your client. This soft skill is what constitutes 50% of the service. A client may forget how you made them look, but they will never forget how you make them feel.

Serving the public in any capacity, especially in fashion and style, requires emotional intelligence, a good understanding of psychology, and non-verbal communication. The intimacy of changing the way someone looks, building rapport, and psychologically reading your clients is an unspoken skill we are expected to pick up along the way.

In The Mindful Hairdresser, Jordanna Cobella, a nationally know hairdresser and stylist in the UK, provides her unique touch on fine-tuning these skills to make for better customer service and becoming a much better hairdresser.

After making ongoing observational visits to businesses around the world and learning the different methods of communication; the art of consultation, Jordanna developed her own style of communication at her own high-end salon in London where she challenges her team of 30 to expand their on-the-job skills to include this emotional intelligence side of the profession rather than just focusing on the practical skills. She also educates the industry in London at-large on behalf of Wella which allows her to have exclusive industry insights into this world.

This book empowers hairdressers, stylists, and salon owners to optimize the synergy between human connection and technical ability. The examples and proven methods of communication and cues she teaches allow the day-to-day lives of a hairdresser to run more smoothly, prevent burnout and drastically improve the service for clients.

Learn these tips to become a more mindful hairdresser:

The trust triangle and how to shift the burden of responsibility in achieving unrealistic expectations during a consultation.
Communication strategies such as psychologically getting the client on board and trusting you before you begin working on their hair.
A list of potential nonverbal communication queues to pick up on and how to respond to them.
Single-tasking to avoid burnout while managing your tasks to complete things to your best ability and how to fully focus on one thing at a time to avoid the stress of multi-tasking and potentially running into problems/complaints.
How to exert the right amount of authority with a client when you are first qualified even though you may not be the most confident.

Audience

There are around 250,000 people working in the hairdressing and barbering industry in the UK aloneand 772,000 in the United States This figure is comprised of salon owners, hairdressers, beauticians, apprentices and front of house receptionists. All of which are exercising the emotional intelligence skills that are not taught as part of the curriculum and, generally speaking, not part of any training program in-house or externally.

Interestingly, hairdressers spend their first few years of their career picking up these skills from peers through observation. With no guidance from the national curriculum nor any training providers, there is a large gap in the education of psychology and the true power of the responsibility that comes with being the nations unspoken therapist. This empathetic role can develop into compassion fatigue which affects their well-being , mental health and, in turn, productivity and performance. 1 in 3 hairdressers have experienced a period of 'burn-out' that they believe is due to the energy it takes to be emotionally present for each client.

If these individuals were better equipped with coping mechanisms, mindful practices, a deeper understanding of psychology and emotional intelligence, it would not only prevent burnout, but also make for a better service for their clients and potentially a better client rapport.

Promotion

INSTAGRAM

I have a following of 11.3k on my IG profile, @jordannacobella, which is made up of hairdressers in the UK and US. I plan to plug my sales through a series of video teasers on my grid and use this as a platform to communicate my message to others who may share on the link and recommend it to their peers.

Competition

1) Self-Care for Hairdressers by Rebecca Beardsley. This book focuses more on the ways in which you can avoid stress on the job and how you can make more money. My book is aimed at the psychological element of hairdressing and what it really takes to connecting with people. Avoiding burnout is addressed from a place of compassion fatigue and taking on too much emotionally rather than stress management.

2) The Salon Jedi - Caroline Sanderson. This book is written for salon owners struggling to find a way to step off the salon floor and put more energy into growing and building a profitable business. My book is aimed at anyone in the profession who is looking for an insightful guide to the emotional intelligence behind the service.

	1106 Design, LLC Dear Author, You worked hard to write your manuscript; finally, it's ready to release. You know that expert assistance is needed, but perhaps you didn’t know that it’s no longer necessary to work with a publisher—especially publishers who charge fees to produce your book upfront and deduct more costs on the back end whenever a book is sold. 1106 Design is an author services company. We provide all the editorial and design services you’d expect from a publisher to turn your manuscript into a market-ready book—editing, cover design, interior layout, proofreading, eBook formatting, and more—at the traditional publisher level. Unlike a publisher, we’ll help you obtain print-on-demand printing and worldwide distribution in your name so that you earn, in most cases, several dollars more for every book sold instead of a measly “royalty.” We’ll customize a package of services to suit your exact needs at affordable prices ranging from $4,000 to $10,000, depending on your manuscript's word count and complexity. And we’ll manage all the intricacies of book production, so you don’t have to. After this one-time investment, every penny of net revenue from book sales goes directly to you, never to us. If this sounds like a better way to publish your book, I invite you to browse our services, design samples, no-surprises pricing, outstanding customer reviews, and educational articles at https://1106design.com. 1106 Design has been in business since 2001 and is rated A+ by the Better Business Bureau.

	Finn-Phyllis Press, Inc 250 copies • Completed manuscript. At Finn-Phyllis Press, our goal is simple: help you tell your story in a powerfully vulnerable way, publish it so that it can sit next to any New York Times bestseller in terms of quality, and support you as you reach the readers who need to hear what you (and you alone) have to say. We believe that every story matters. We believe that the smallest moments of connection create the widest reaching ripple effect of change. We believe that book publishing doesn't have to be overwhelming, feel high-pressure, or take years to complete. We believe that authors deserve to earn 100% of the profits---it's your story, after all! We believe that 100% of the rights to your story are your own (and should remain that way). We believe that while most stories aren't, in and of themselves, completely unique, no one else has your exact perspective or experience, and that is your superpower. We believe in partnerships. This isn't our first rodeo (although, in full transparency, we've never been to an actual rodeo), and it is our privilege to guide our authors every step of the way. We are proud of our no-tears-or-panic-attacks policy. We believe in the bells and whistles that help our clients increase their impact---and leave the ones that don't in the metaphorical slush pile. We don't have an actual slush pile. Are you with us so far? If so, let's talk about what's next... We are passionate about powerfully vulnerable storytelling, inspiring backstories, and yet-to-be-discovered voices. We believe that everyone has a powerful story and that those stories are meant to impact the entire world, one reader at a time.

Can't wait! This subject has always fascinated me as a hairdresser and as you have stated, it is not covered by the curriculum which is so crazy! Thank you for writing this book 🙏

I got into emotional intelligence, mindfulness and social psychology a few years ago and since then I’ve tried to apply it everyday but expecially on the chair with my clients and with any kind or interaction.
I’m really looking forward to read this book as it’ll be the first one that I’ll from a hairdresser perspective ! XX

Love all things mindset but also at times dreading going back to work again. I've realised I need to set boundaries with my clients as they, in the past have ruled my 30yr Career. And I love my job. Good luck with this launch xx

Excited to gain insight on not only the technical skills, the science and especially the mindfulness as a stylist to connect with the people who sit in our chair.

One thing that initially made me listen when you we’re cutting a ‘Billie Illish’ cut, was that you didn’t come across as a pretentious hairdresser or a hairdresser full of their own importance. Keep hold of that ‘honest’ persona. There’s too many fake people in our profession.
For years I thought about the psychology of hairdressing. Part of my degree was in psychology, but my heart was in hairstyling 😀. I’ve often thought about running a course on the psychology of hairstyling including its marketing. You’ve pretty much sold me the manual. Fantastic!
