Hairstylists out there?

Question

How often do you carry out a shampoo and roller set at the salon
and do you find they are becoming more popular with younger women,

also if you where asked to roller set a mans hair would you do it?

Answer 1

I do roller sets alot on older women. Very rarely do I get younger women wanting them. Unless they are going to do some sort of updo. I do have one male client that likes me to wet set his hair. He comes in once a week.

Answer 2

I have done and seen done many roller sets. We are starting to stop the whole process as its a waste of our time with the iron available. Although the iron doesn't last as long as a roller set. It's the time involved for us that is wasted. We spend an hour to an hour and a half (depending on the hair and difficulty of the style) on roller sets. Very little charged...$18. We can do a dry and iron in half hour to 45 mins and it is slightly more $20. Although some of my co-workers still do sets, several of us have stopped.

If I still did roller sets I would do a man, why not? But I don't so ....no, I won't. lol!

Answer 3

I normally see women in their 40's, 50s and older getting roller sets at the salon, But I have noticed recently younger women venturing into the salons with their mums or aunts to get a roller set and asking stylists to show them how to roll up their hair properly so that they can do it at home as they have got fed up with either using curling irons or straighteners

I have only once seen a man getting a perm back in the early 80's

Answer 4

I went even further: took a permanent curls, hows that ;) he!
