While their salon doors may be closed for the time being, many stylists have taken their talents and techniques online to help clients look and feel their best — virtually. While we work through this time together (yet apart), Virtual Appointments serve as a way for Pros to provide the personalized style-guidance we love at a distance we can get behind. From quarantine consults to video tutorials, here’s how some of StyleSeat’s top Professionals are using Virtual Appointments to stay connected with clients and bring in revenue.
