12 Hair Care Welcome and Introduction Educator Guide KEY POINTS The purpose of this lesson is to help the learner connect with the idea that asking open-ended questions is an effective way to collect information quickly. Slide 1 Welcome to the Connect Aveda: Hair Care training module. For the next two hours, you re going to learn how to use different tools and perform service behaviors to discover and provide solutions for guests hair care needs. Slide 2 Page 2 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

13 Educator Guide Welcome and Introduction Hair Care Page 49 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Learning Objectives Our learning objectives for today are: Educate guests on the hair care domain and its associated products Use the appropriate tools and service behaviors to discover guests hair care needs Use the appropriate tools and service behaviors to provide appropriate solutions for guests hair care needs Effectively perform instant and elite hair care consultations, including the porosity and elasticity tests and scalp analysis Describe how to perform the complete Hair Care Experience ACTIVITY: COIN GUESSING Give the learner a quarter or other type of coin. Tell the learner that you are going to try to determine the year on the coin by asking a series of questions. Ask six or seven close-ended questions: Is it 1971? Is it 2003? Continue in this manner, asking six or seven close-ended questions. Pause the activity and ask the learner the following questions: 2012 Page 3 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

14 Hair Care Welcome and Introduction Educator Guide What are you noticing about the questions I m asking? How effective are they at determining the date on the coin? How many questions have I asked so far? Resume the activity by asking one open-ended question: What is the year on the coin? Debrief the activity by asking the following questions: How was this question different from the others I asked? Did asking this question give me more information in a shorter amount of time? Earlier in the Connect Aveda training, you learned about open-ended questions. Open-ended questions give us the maximum amount of information in the shortest amount of time. Today s training is all about using the tools available to discover and provide appropriate solutions for guests hair care needs. Open-ended questions are just one of those tools, but they may be the most powerful tool you can have. They re a significant aspect of performing an effective consultation. You ll learn how to perform consultations for instant and elite guests later. Let s review the other tools now. Page 4 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

15 Educator Guide Hair Care Product Knowledge and Service Tools Hair Care KEY POINTS The purpose of this lesson is to review the tools the learner can use to improve their hair care product and service knowledge. Slide 3 One of the most important tools you can have is knowledge. It s important for you to know which Aveda hair care system addresses which need. Let s look at the tools that can help you discover the right hair care system. Give the learner copies of the Hair Care Positioning Chart, Shelftalkers, End Benefit Cards, Product Resource Guide, Hair Care Consultation Tool and Purescription Pad. Pages Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Review the hair care product knowledge and service tools with the learner. Encourage them to take notes in their workbook: Hair Care Positioning Chart Provides basic information about each hair care 2012 Page 5 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

16 Hair Care Educator Guide Hair Care Product Knowledge and Service Tools product Organized into basic, specialized and treatment systems and daily leave-in and weekly leave-in treatments Organized into specific product families and their associated results Provides individual product benefits Shelftalkers and End Benefit Cards Located on the sales floor under each product Act as visual guides to help you make product recommendations to guests on the sales floor Shelftalkers provide the product name, price and some benefits End Benefit Cards describe the need the product family addresses Product Resource Guide Provides detailed product information by domain, including positioning statement, technology, functional botanicals, sourcing story, pure-fume aroma, texture/form, packaging, usage and application and Q&A Hair Care Consultation Tool Designed to help guide you and the guest through the consultation Helps you collect detailed information about the guest s hair care needs Includes a series of questions to ask the guest and space to record their responses Purescription Pad Page 6 Organized the same way as the Hair Care Positioning Connect Aveda: Hair Care

17 Educator Guide Hair Care Product Knowledge and Service Tools Hair Care Chart Helps you record product recommendations for guests to take home Slide 4 Page 51 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Hair Care System Together, daily care and treatment products are a complete hair care system. Daily care Refers to shampoos and conditioners that the guest will use most often to wash and condition their hair Shampoo Cleanses hair Removes products, minerals and build-up Conditioner 2012 Page 7 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

18 Hair Care Hair Care Product Knowledge and Service Tools Slide 5 Repairs hair Puts things back into hair (e.g., moisture, protein, etc.) Educator Guide Doesn t mean that the guest washes their hair every day; it means that when they do, they re using one of each of these products Treatment Provide more intense or targeted treatment Often used to treat hair on a weekly basis in place of daily conditioner, but can be used daily depending on the product May be chosen from a different product family depending on the guest s primary or secondary concern Therefore, a complete hair care system consists of: 1. Shampoo 2. Conditioner 3. Treatment Page 8 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

19 Educator Guide Hair Care Product Knowledge and Service Tools Hair Care ASK Take a look at the Hair Care Positioning Chart. What shampoo and conditioner would you recommend to a guest who wanted more volume? (Listen for: Pure Abundance Volumizing Shampoo and Clay Conditioner.) What shampoo and conditioner would you recommend to a guest who wanted repair damage? (Listen for: Damage Remedy Restructuring Shampoo and Restructuring Conditioner.) Correct. Both Pure Abundance and Damage Remedy are daily care product families; however, they re listed in separate categories on the Hair Care Product Positioning Chart. Pure Abundance is a specialized system, and Damage Remedy is a treatment system. ASK What treatment product would you recommend to a guest who wants to protect their color and strengthen their color-treated hair? (Listen for: Color Conserve Strengthening Treatment.) What treatment product would you recommend to a guest who has curly hair and is concerned about dry hair? (Listen for: Dry Remedy Daily Moisturizing Oil and/or Dry Remedy Moisturizing Masque.) 2012 Page 9 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

20 Hair Care Educator Guide Hair Care Product Knowledge and Service Tools Slide 6 That second question is somewhat tricky. The curly-haired guest probably uses Be Curly Shampoo and Conditioner. Because there is no Be Curly treatment product and the guest is also concerned with dry hair, you would recommend the Dry Remedy daily leave-in and/or weekly treatment products. Guests can use a treatment product from a different product family than their daily care product family. Treatment products are versatile and can be added to any daily care system. ASK What does a complete hair care system consist of: (Listen for: Shampoo, conditioner, treatment.) What does shampoo do? (Listen for: Cleanses hair; removes products, minerals and build-up.) What does conditioner do? (Listen for: Repairs hair, puts things back into hair, including moisture, protein, etc.) Page 10 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

21 Educator Guide Hair Care Product Knowledge and Service Tools Hair Care What does a treatment product do? (Listen for: Provides more intense or targeted treatment; Used to treat hair on a weekly basis in place of daily conditioner but can be used daily depending on the product.) Can guests use treatment products from different product families? (Listen for: Yes, treatment products can be chosen from different product families depending on the guest s primary or secondary concern.) You ll learn more about how to use the other hair care product knowledge tools later in the Connect Aveda training. For now, remember that the Hair Care Positioning Chart is a valuable source of information when it comes to determining the appropriate hair care system for a guest Page 11 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

22 Hair Care Understanding Hair Educator Guide KEY POINTS The purpose of this lesson is to review hair physiology, texture, density and curl pattern; types of damage; and scalp conditions and how they affect hair care system recommendations. Slide 7 Before you can provide solutions to guests, you need to understand and identify hair texture, hair density, damage and scalp conditions. These things will reveal themselves during the consultation, which you will learn how to perform later. Page 12 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

23 Educator Guide Understanding Hair Hair Care Slide 8 Everyone has a unique hair structure. Hair is a slender, threadlike outgrowth that grows from a follicle in the skin. It s composed primarily of keratin and has three main layers. Page 51 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Review hair physiology with the learner. Instruct them to fill in the blanks in their workbook: Cuticle Outer layer of hair Shampoos, conditioners and styling products generally work only on the cuticle Cortex Inside layer of hair Chemical processing services (e.g., color, perms, thermal straighteners) and heat styling tools alter the cortex Products that help repair damage often work on the 2012 Page 13 Rev.

24 Hair Care Understanding Hair Educator Guide cortex Medulla Inner-most layer of hair Function unknown Slide 9 Page 52 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Hair Texture Page 14 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

25 Educator Guide Understanding Hair Hair Care Texture refers to the diameter of each individual hair strand. It is classified into three categories: Fine Soft, silky, thin, sparse, lacks volume, tangles easily, easily weighed down by product Medium Wavy or straight, neither coarse nor fine, frizzy, lacks smoothness, natural volume/body Coarse Wiry, rough, dry, fuzzy, difficult to style Hair texture can be determined by feeling the thickness of an individual strand of hair with your fingers and listening to guests describe their hair. ASK What is texture? (Listen for: The diameter of each individual hair strand.) What are the three hair texture categories? (Listen for: Fine, medium, coarse.) What are some key words/phrases a guest might say that indicate they have fine-textured hair? (Listen for: Soft, silky, thin, sparse, lacks volume, breaks easily, tangles easily, easily weighed down by product.) What are some key words/phrases a guest might say that indicate they have medium-textured hair? (Listen for: Wavy or straight, neither coarse nor fine, frizzy, lacks smoothness, natural volume/body.) 2012 Page 15 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

26 Hair Care Understanding Hair Educator Guide What are some key words/phrases a guest might say that indicate they have coarse-textured hair? (Listen for: Wiry, rough, dry, fuzzy, difficult to style.) Well done! Knowledge of hair texture helps us determine how much moisture the hair needs and as well as how much hold it needs from styling products. Fine hair typically needs products with less hold and moisture; coarse hair typically needs products with more hold and moisture. ACTIVITY: HAIR TEXTURE PRACTICE Invite team members with different hair textures to join you and the learner. Instruct the learner to compare each team member s hair with the key words/phrases for each type of hair texture in their workbook and to determine the team members hair texture. Ask the following questions during the practice: What hair texture do you think they have? How does it look? How does it feel? Page 16 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

27 Educator Guide Understanding Hair Hair Care Slide 10 Page 52 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Hair Density Hair density refers to the number of hairs that are present on a head, or more specifically, the number of individual strands per square inch. It is classified into three categories: Thin Normal Thick Hair density can be determined by looking at the top of the head and evaluating the number and closeness of the hair follicles and listening to guests describe their hair. Guests may describe their hair as thin or thick, meaning they have less or more hair than someone with normal density. ASK What is density? (Listen for: The number of strands present on a head; 2012 Page 17 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

28 Hair Care Understanding Hair Educator Guide specifically, the number of strands per square inch.) What are the three hair density categories? (Listen for: Thin, normal, thick.) Well done again! Knowledge of hair density helps us determine which products will work best for the guest s hair type. Thin, less dense hair often requires products that won t weigh it down or add excess moisture, like the Pure Abundance system and Light Elements styling products. Thick, dense hair often requires products that provide moisture and softness, like the Dry Remedy and Brilliant hair care systems. Page 52 Page 18 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Review curl pattern with the learner. Instruct them to fill in the blanks in their workbook. Curl Pattern The degree of wave or curl in the hair. Three Categories Straight Wavy Curly Knowledge of curl pattern helps us determine which products will work best for the guest depending on whether they want to wear their hair straight or wavy/curly. Remember, you ll have to find out how the guest wants their hair to look when it s styled. For example, if the guest has Connect Aveda: Hair Care

29 Educator Guide Understanding Hair Hair Care curly hair, but straightens it every day, you wouldn t recommend the Be Curly hair care system; you d recommend Smooth Infusion. Page 53 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Damage 2012 Page 19 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

30 Hair Care Understanding Hair Educator Guide Damaged hair often requires more specific care, and your product recommendations will depend on what type of damage the guest has. There are three types of damage: Environmental Caused by environmental factors such as wind, sun and water Leads to a lack of moisture To repair, add moisture back into the hair Mechanical Caused by styling tools, such as blow dryers, irons and rollers Leads to a lack of moisture and potential breakage To repair, add moisture and/or protein back into the hair Chemical ASK Caused by chemical services, such as color, perms and thermal straighteners Breaks down the strength of the hair, causing weak spots To repair, add protein back into the hair to restrengthen it What are the three types of damage? (Listen for: Environmental, mechanical, chemical.) What causes environmental damage? (Listen for: Environmental factors, like wind, sun and Page 20 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

31 Educator Guide Understanding Hair Hair Care water.) What does environmental damage do to hair? (Listen for: It leads to a lack of moisture.) How do you repair environmental damage? (Listen for: Add moisture back into the hair.) What causes mechanical damage? (Listen for: Heat styling tools, like blow dryers, irons and rollers.) What does mechanical damage do to hair? (Listen for: It leads to a lack of moisture and potential breakage.) How do you repair mechanical damage? (Listen for: Add moisture and/or protein back into the hair.) What causes chemical damage? (Listen for: Chemical services like color, perms and thermal straighteners.) What does chemical damage do to hair? (Listen for: It breaks down the hair s strength, causing weak spots.) How do you repair chemical damage? (Listen for: Add protein back into the hair to restrengthen it.) Direct the learner to the Hair Care Positioning Chart Page 21 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

32 Hair Care Understanding Hair Educator Guide ASK What treatment product adds moisture to hair? (Listen for: Dry Remedy Moisturizing Masque.) What treatment product adds strength to hair? (Listen for: Damage Remedy Intensive Restructuring Treatment.) Well done. Knowledge of damage helps us determine which products will restore the guest s hair to a healthy condition. Hair with environmental or mechanical damage is often dry and in need of moisture. Hair with chemical damage is often weak and in need of protein. Slide 11 Page 53 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Scalp Conditions Page 22 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

33 Educator Guide Understanding Hair Hair Care Scalp conditions occur when the skin on the scalp is out of balance. There are several different types of scalp imbalances: Normal Looks/feels: healthy Oily Looks/feels: Slick, oily, shiny Dry Looks/feels: Itchy, flaky, tight, uncomfortable Dandruff Looks/feels: Scaly, flaky, irritated Sensitive Looks/feels: Red, hot, itchy, irritated, uneven Guests often use these words to describe their scalp during the consultation, so these are the words you should listen for when talking with guests about their scalp concerns Page 23 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

34 Hair Care Understanding Hair Educator Guide ASK What is a scalp condition? A scalp condition occurs when the skin on the scalp is out of balance.) What are some key words/phrases a guest might say that indicate they have a normal scalp? (Listen for: Healthy.) What are some key words/phrases a guest might say that indicate they have an oily scalp? (Listen for: Slick, oily, shiny.) What are some key words/phrases a guest might say that indicate they have a dry scalp? (Listen for: Itchy, flaky, tight, uncomfortable.) What are some key words/phrases a guest might say that indicate they have a scalp with dandruff? (Listen for: Scaly, flaky, irritated.) What are some key words/phrases a guest might say that indicate they have a sensitive scalp? (Listen for: Red, hot, itchy, irritated, uneven.) Well done again! Knowledge of scalp conditions helps us determine which products will restore the guest s scalp to a healthy condition. Guests with scalp conditions can benefit from using the Scalp Benefits system, which is formulated to balance the scalp. Scalp conditions are common among male guests, so the Aveda Men Pure-Formance hair care system, which is formulated especially for men to soothe and relieve the Page 24 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

36 Hair Care Discover Needs Educator Guide KEY POINTS The purpose of this lesson is to review the tools and service behaviors associated with discovering guests hair care needs, including how to use the Hair Care Consultation Tool to perform the instant and elite hair care consultation, time check, elasticity and porosity tests and scalp analysis. Slide 12 Page 26 Now it s time to learn about the hair care consultation and its associated service behaviors and tools. When we think of the Aveda Service Cycle, we have a set of behaviors that we offer each guest. However, guest service differs from country to country, and even among countries. Also, the needs of today s consumer are changing every day. People have a lot going on, and time is a valued commodity to them. What this means for us is that we needed to re-think the way we re offering service to our guests and offer them a unique service experience based on the amount of time they have available. To accommodate the needs of every guest, Aveda developed the global guest experience. For the most part, we will perform the same connect, provide solutions and confirm service behaviors for every Connect Aveda: Hair Care

37 Educator Guide Discover Needs Hair Care guest. But there is one step of the Aveda Service Cycle that we ll need to adapt to different types of guests. ASK Do you remember the difference between instant guests and elite guests? (Listen for: Instant guests have 2 3 minutes to spend with us; elite guests are guests have 5 10 minutes to spend with us.) What step of the Aveda Service Cycle is different depending on whether the guest is instant or elite? (Listen for: Discover needs.) Correct! As you learned earlier in the Connect Aveda training, there are several different types of Aveda guests. But ultimately, there are guests who have more time to spend with us and those that don t. For the sake of today s training, let s say that every guest is an elite hair care guest. You also learned that discovering needs consists of one key behavior performing an effective consultation. An effective consultation includes asking the guest a minimum of three open-ended questions. The Hair Care Consultation Tool helps you do just that. You already learned about this tool earlier in the Connect Aveda training Page 27 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

38 Hair Care Discover Needs Educator Guide Slide 13 Direct the learner to the Hair Care Consultation Tool. The Hair Care Consultation Tool is designed to be used with every guest, regardless of whether they re instant or elite. The questions on the tool relate to the information about hair you learned earlier. As the guest responds to each question you ask, you ll hear them say some key words that will help you make product recommendations. The first question is especially effective at collecting information. ASK Can you please read the first question on the Hair Care Consultation Tool aloud? (Listen as the learner reads the first question: Tell me about your hair.) Thank you. This is a great open-ended question. It Page 28 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

39 Educator Guide Discover Needs Hair Care encourages the guest to give you specific information. As you ask the guest the consultation questions, record their responses directly on the tool using a dry erase marker. The tool is made from a recyclable laminate and can be used over and over. Doing this not only lets you refer to any key words later when making a product recommendation, it reinforces you as a hair care expert to the guest. ASK Can you read the next five questions on the on the Hair Care Consultation Tool aloud? (Listen as the learner reads the next five questions: What products are you currently using? What is your main concern with your hair? Describe your scalp. How do you want your hair to look when it s styled? Do you use heat styling tools to help you achieve this style?) Thank you. These first several questions in these first three sections of the tool the hair, scalp and style sections are the ones you re going to ask each and every hair care guest. You will skip the test section until you ve determined whether the guest is instant or elite, as the elasticity and porosity tests and scalp analysis are only performed with elite guests. Remember, after you ve taken the guest through the first three sections of the Hair Care Consultation Tool, you want to perform a quick time check. An effective way to do this is to say, I d like to further analyze your hair and scalp to better understand your needs. Are you doing ok on time? 2012 Page 29 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

40 Hair Care Discover Needs Educator Guide If the guest says no, the guest should be considered an instant guest, and you should proceed to making a product recommendation. Let s use an instant guest scenario to practice. ACTIVITY: INSTANT HAIR CARE CONSULTATION ROLE PLAY Instruct the learner to play the role of the guest while you play the role of the advisor. Use the learner s own hair type as the scenario. Ask the learner the questions from the hair, scalp and style sections of the Hair Care Consultation Tool, and record their responses. Perform a time check by using the following language: I d like to further analyze your hair and scalp to better understand your needs. Are you doing ok on time? Note: The learner should say no. Review what you determined as their primary hair care concern and why. Note: Do not make any product recommendations. The purpose of this activity is to understand how to use the Hair Care Consultation Tool to determine the guest s primary hair care concern. Switch roles, and instruct the learner to play the role of the advisor while you play the role of the guest. Use your own hair type as the scenario. Allow the learner to reference their notes if necessary, and coach them as needed. Debrief the activity by giving the learner feedback on what they did well and what they could improve. Demonstrate the things you are asking the learner to do differently, and then have them practice the new behavior. Page 30 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

41 Educator Guide Discover Needs Hair Care Great job! Now, if when you perform the time check, the guest says yes, the guest should be considered an elite guest and you should perform the elasticity and porosity tests and the scalp analysis. Let me show you what these tests look like. Slide 14 Page 54 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Elasticity Test ASK Can you please read the elasticity test description aloud? (Listen as the learner reads the elasticity test description: Elasticity measures how well the hair stretches and returns to its original length. Hair with great elasticity stretches about 1/5 (about 20%) and returns to its original length. Hair with healthy elasticity is more resilient during styling. Sensitized or weak hair stretches easily but doesn t fully bounce back. Damaged hair typically lacks elasticity, which 2012 Page 31 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

42 Hair Care Discover Needs Educator Guide can result in breakage during daily styling.) Thank you. Now watch me as I demonstrate how to perform the elasticity test. Afterward, you ll have the opportunity to practice. ACTIVITY: ELASTICITY TEST DEMONSTRATION AND PRACTICE Invite a team member to join you and the learner. Instruct the team member to play the role of the guest. Perform the elasticity test on the team member. Instruct participants to follow along with the steps in their workbook: 1. Using both hands, hold a strand of hair at the scalp and at the ends. 2. Gently stretch and release the hair. 3. Evaluate the results: Hair that stretches easily and returns to its original length has great elasticity. Hair that remains slightly stretched has good to great elasticity. Hair that breaks or remains stretched out has poor elasticity. After you ve performed the elasticity test, record the result on the Hair Care Consultation Tool. Switch roles, and instruct the learner to play the role of the advisor while you play the role of the guest. Allow the learner to reference their notes if necessary, and coach them as needed. Debrief the activity by giving the learner feedback on Page 32 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

43 Educator Guide Discover Needs Hair Care what they did well and what they could improve. Demonstrate the things you are asking the learner to do differently, and then have them practice the new behavior. Well done. Again, the purpose of the elasticity test is to determine whether the hair is damaged. Now let s move on to the porosity test. Slide 15 Page 54 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Porosity Test ASK Can you please read the porosity test description aloud? (Listen as the learner reads the elasticity test description: Porosity measures the hair s ability to absorb or hold moisture. Porous hair absorbs products quickly and processes faster. Non-porous hair is more resistant to product absorption.) 2012 Page 33 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

44 Hair Care Discover Needs Educator Guide Thank you. Now watch me as I demonstrate how to perform the porosity test. Afterward, you ll have the opportunity to practice. ACTIVITY: POROSITY TEST DEMONSTRATION AND PRACTICE Invite a team member to join you and the learner. Instruct the team member to play the role of the guest. Perform the porosity test on the team member. Instruct participants to follow along with the steps in their workbook: 1. Hold a section of hair between your thumb and forefinger. 2. Lightly backcomb the hair strands from ends to scalp. 3. Evaluate the results: Hair that feels thick and smooth and does not backcomb easily is non-porous or resistant. Hair that feels rough and backcombs easily is porous. After you ve performed the porosity test, record the result on the Hair Care Consultation Tool. Switch roles, and instruct the learner to play the role of the advisor while you play the role of the guest. Allow the learner to reference their notes if necessary, and coach them as needed. Debrief the activity by giving the learner feedback on what they did well and what they could improve. Demonstrate the things you are asking the learner to do differently, and then have them practice the new behavior. Page 34 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

45 Educator Guide Discover Needs Hair Care Well done. Again, the purpose of the porosity test is to determine whether the hair is lacking moisture. After you perform the elasticity and porosity tests, you then use the results to add treatments to your product recommendation. Page 55 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Understanding Elasticity and Porosity Tests ASK Can you please read the Understanding Elasticity and Porosity tests section aloud? (Listen as the learner reads the Understanding Elasticity and Porosity Tests section: Lacks elasticity recommend products to make the hair stronger (e.g., Damage Remedy Porous recommend products to add moisture (e.g., Dry Remedy Lacks elasticity and is porous treat the damage first.) Thank you. The final step of the elite hair care consultation is to perform the scalp analysis. Earlier in the Connect Aveda training, you learned that a scalp condition occurs when the skin on the scalp is out of balance. The scalp analysis helps you determine whether the guest s scalp may need additional attention Page 35 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

46 Hair Care Discover Needs Educator Guide Slide 16 Page 55 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Scalp Analysis Watch me as I demonstrate how to perform the scalp analysis. Afterward, you ll have the opportunity to practice. ACTIVITY: SCALP ANALYSIS DEMONSTRATION AND PRACTICE Invite a team member to join you and the learner. Instruct the team member to play the role of the guest. Perform the scalp analysis on the team member. Instruct participants to follow along with the steps in their workbook: 1. Part the hair at the crown using an Aveda comb and section with clips. 2. Rub the scalp gently, and look for sign of flakiness, irritation or oil. 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 behind the ear and at the nape of the neck. Page 36 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

47 Educator Guide Discover Needs Hair Care After you ve performed the scalp analysis, record the result on the Hair Care Consultation Tool. Switch roles, and instruct the learner to play the role of the advisor while you play the role of the guest. Allow the learner to reference their notes if necessary, and coach them as needed. Debrief the activity by giving the learner feedback on what they did well and what they could improve. Demonstrate the things you are asking the learner to do differently, and then have them practice the new behavior. Great! After you perform the scalp analysis, you then use the results to add treatments to your product recommendation. For example, if the guest is experiencing scalp challenges, you can potentially add Scalp Remedy Dandruff Solution to your recommendation, which will gently exfoliate the scalp and reduce flaking by up to 41% in one week. Now it s time to put it all together. Let s use an elite guest scenario to practice. ACTIVITY: ELITE HAIR CARE CONSULTATION ROLE PLAY Invite a team member to join you and the learner. Instruct the team member to play the role of the guest while the learner plays the role of the advisor. Use the team member s own hair type as the scenario. Instruct the learner to ask the team member all of the questions on the Hair Care Consultation Tool, perform the elasticity and porosity tests and scalp analysis, and record their responses/results. Allow the learner to reference their notes if necessary, and coach them as needed Page 37 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

48 Hair Care Discover Needs Educator Guide Instruct the learner to review what they determined as the team member s primary hair care concern and why. Note: The learner should not make any product recommendations. Debrief the activity by giving the learner feedback on what they did well and what they could improve. Demonstrate the things you are asking the learner to do differently, then have them practice the new behavior. Great job on the role play! If you ve performed an effective consultation, you should have the information you need to provide solutions. Page 38 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

49 Educator Guide Provide Solutions Hair Care KEY POINTS The purpose of this lesson is to review the tools and service behaviors associated with providing appropriate solutions for guests hair care needs, including how to use the solutions formula and Purescription Pad to make product recommendations. Slide 17 At this point in the Aveda Service Cycle, you should have collected enough information to provide a solution that meets the guest s need. ASK Do you remember the provide solutions service behaviors? (Listen for: Suggest and educate on a system of three or more products, offer an Aveda Ritual of Renewal, share a reason we re different: mission, packaging, sourcing, etc., provide a Purescription, introduce what s new.) You ll find that after you ve performed an effective consultation, it will feel very natural to move into suggesting 2012 Page 39 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

(Listen for: Hair Care Positioning Chart, Shelftalkers and End Benefit Cards, Product Resource Guide, Hair Care Consultation Tool, Purescription Pad.) Great! These tools are always available for you to use to find hair care product information you need to determine the appropriate products to recommend to the guest. In fact, it s time for you to practice using them. Pages Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Hair Care Needs and Solutions ACTIVITY: HAIR CARE NEEDS AND SOLUTIONS Instruct the learner to read the hair care scenarios in their workbook and record the appropriate product system solutions. Debrief the activity by asking the learner to share their product system solutions: 1. Hair is frizzy and lacks smoothness. (Smooth Infusion ) 2. Hair is curly, frizzy and has an irregular curl pattern. (Be Curly ) 3. Scalp is itchy, flaky and irritated. Page 40 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

Date 4/26/2012

52 Hair Care Provide Solutions Educator Guide Slide 18 After you ve determined the appropriate product system solution, you need to recommend it to the guest. To do this, you use the solutions formula, which has three components: Because (guest challenge/need) I recommend (system) which will (results). The solutions formula is a great way to recommend product system solutions to guests because it connects their need to the system s benefit. Page 57 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Hair Care Needs and Solutions Formulas ACTIVITY: HAIR CARE NEEDS AND SOLUTIONS FORMULAS Instruct the learner to read the hair care scenarios in their workbook, determine the appropriate product system solutions and record the associated solutions formulas. Debrief the activity by asking the learner to share their product system solutions and associated solutions Page 42 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

53 Educator Guide Provide Solutions Hair Care formulas: 1. Guest has fine, straight, shoulder-length hair and wants volume but doesn t want to use products that will weigh their hair down. ( Because you said you want volume, I recommend the Pure Abundance system, which will make your hair look fuller and feel thicker without weighing it down. ) 2. Guest has coarse, dry, curly hair and wants to enhance their curl and tame frizz. ( Because you said you want to enhance your curl, I recommend the Be Curly system, which will enhance curl, combat frizz and boost shine. ) 3. Guest wants to preserve their color-treated hair. ( Because you said you want to preserve your color, I recommend the Color Conserve system, which will protect and preserve your color-treated hair and leave it shiny, silky, soft and vibrant longer. ) 4. Guest has a family of four and wants to share the same shampoo and conditioner. ( Because you said you want to share a hair care system with your entire family, I recommend the Shampure or Rosemary Mint system, which will cleanse and condition all of your family members different hair types with a pleasant, plant-based aroma. ) 5. Guest has frizzy hair and uses a blow dryer and flat iron to wear their hair straight and smooth every day. ( Because you said your hair is frizzy and you wear it straight and smooth every day, I recommend the Smooth Infusion system, which will smooth and softens hair, making it easier to achieve smooth and 2012 Page 43 Rev.

It s your job to determine the guest s primary concern. However, you may be able to address the guest s secondary concern through treatment or styling products. Now, remember that the first provide solutions service behavior is to suggest and educate on a system of three or more products. After you use the solutions formula to introduce the product system solution to the guest, you ll need to educate the guest on what each product in the system does and how to use it. Page 57 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Hair Care Needs and Solutions Formulas, question #3 Take a look at the solutions formula you recorded for the Color Conserve system during that last activity. What I want you to do now is think about how you would tell the guest to use each product in the Color Conserve system. Use the Product Resource Guide or the information printed on the back of the bottle to help you. Give the learner a few minutes to think about how they would tell the guest to use each product in the Color Conserve system. ASK How would you tell the guest to use each product in the Color Conserve system? Page 44 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

55 Educator Guide Provide Solutions Hair Care (Listen for: First, cleanse your hair with Color Conserve Shampoo, which is a daily color-maintenance shampoo that helps protect and preserve color-treated hair with gentle cleansers. Then, condition your hair with Color Conserve Conditioner, which also helps protect and preserve colortreated hair with plant-based conditioners that lock in color. After conditioning, rub a coin-sized amount of Color Conserve Daily Color Protect between your palms and finger-comb through damp hair. Don t rinse out the product, as it s a daily leave-in treatment that seals in color to help protect it from fading for up to six weeks. Finally, once a week, in place of conditioner, apply the Color Conserve Strengthening Treatment evenly to damp hair, from roots to ends. Leave it in for 2 5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. ) Page 58 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Review the provide solutions service behaviors with the learner. Encourage them to take notes in their workbook: Suggest and educate on a system of three or more products. We just covered this. When we recommend a complete product system to a guest, we want to connect the guest s need to the benefits of the system this makes the recommendation meaningful. We use the solutions formula to make this connection. Offer an Aveda Ritual of Renewal. With elite hair care guests, we perform a stress-relieving ritual. This is part of the complete Hair Care Experience, which includes a hair care consultation, a Signature Hair Styling Ritual (which you ll learn about in the next module), and either the Stress-Relieving Hand Ritual or Stress- Relieving Neck and Shoulders Ritual. However, it s important to remember that some guests may not have as much time to spend with us. With instant guests, the Hair Care Experience could consist of a hair care consultation and a quick application of the finishing 2012 Page 45 Rev. Date 4/26/2012

56 Hair Care Provide Solutions Educator Guide product you re recommending. Or, if the guest isn t a hair styling guest, the Hair Care Experience could consist of a hair care consultation and a quick ritual. For example, while the guest is checking out, you could use a cotton ball to apply Blue Oil Balancing Concentrate or Stress-Fix Concentrate to the back of their neck and briefly massage the two points. IMPORTANT NOTE Demonstrate how to perform a quick ritual on the learner. ASK Do you remember how to perform the Stress-Relieving Neck and Shoulders Ritual? (Listen for: Yes!) Do you remember what language you should use to offer the ritual to a guest? (Listen for: While you re here, I d love to treat you to an Aveda Ritual of Renewal. The Stress-Relieving Neck and Shoulders Ritual is a 3 5-minute experience that features relaxing massage movements covering the neck and shoulders. ) Great! Now s your chance to practice. Page 46 Connect Aveda: Hair Care

57 Educator Guide Provide Solutions Hair Care ACTIVITY: STRESS-RELIEVING NECK AND SHOULDERS RITUAL PRACTICE Instruct the learner to turn to the Rituals of Renewal chapter in their workbook and review the steps for performing the Stress-Relieving Neck and Shoulders Ritual, and ask if they have any questions. Instruct the learner to perform the Stress-Relieving Neck and Shoulders Ritual on you, a team member or guest. Allow the learner to reference their notes if necessary, and coach them as needed. Debrief the activity by giving the learner feedback on what they did well and what they could improve. Demonstrate the things you are asking the learner to do differently, and then have them practice the new behavior. Page 58 Direct learners to the Connect Aveda Participant Workbook. Continue reviewing the rest of the provide solutions service behaviors with the learner. Encourage them to take notes in their workbook: Share a reason we re different: mission, packaging, sourcing, etc. Tell the guest an Aveda story to educate them about the brand and its mission. When making a product system recommendation, share something about the sourcing, ingredients or packaging that is relevant to the system. This is also great opportunity to allow them to experience the product s aroma. Unscrew the cap of one of the products you re recommending, and have them experience the aroma.

With elite guests especially, take their time in the EC as the opportunity to introduce them to something new, either a new product launch or something from a different domain. Elite guests love Aveda and want to hear about the newest product or focus. A great way to introduce what s new is to say, When was the last time you visited us? I d love to show you what s new since the last time you were here Page 49 Rev. Date 4/26/2012
