5 Reasons Stylists Are The Best People To Date
In honor of Valentine's Day, we explain why stylists have all the right qualities to make amazing romantic partners.
After the flurry of the holiday season, clients are again clamoring to look their best once February rolls around—think elegant date-night updos, refreshed haircolor and the latest of-the-moment cuts to celebrate the most romantic day of the year. Chances are, they already know how great you are (after all, they return time and time again for your fun-loving company and expert eye), but did you know your on-the-job skills can also seamlessly translate to the dating scene? Here's why:
1. You've Mastered The Art Of Conversation
Clients come from all walks of life, and you're as comfortable chatting up a 20-something as an elderly client, a guy's guy or a Ph.D.-toting professor. Establishing a rapport with strangers isn't just an extracurricular hobby, it's part of the job—meaning that everything from blind dates to meeting the parents is way less likely to faze you.
2. Creativity Comes Naturally
Being inspired, finding beauty in the everyday, and coming up with new ideas are nothing new for you. Dates always appreciate your ability to seek exciting adventures and keep things fresh.
3. You're a Go-Getter
Ambition and a drive to always improve are at the heart of your success. Often seeking out top-tier education, you're constantly expanding your skill set and looking to work on any weaknesses—a must for any relationship.
4. Your Listening Skills Are Top Notch
Ever feel like you're a part-time therapist behind the chair? Whether hearing about a millennial's latest online dating disaster, a career woman's corporate woes, or your male client's concern over his thinning hair, you're always at the ready with an open ear—and genuine, heartfelt concern.
5. You Beautify Everyone Around You
Showing clients how to look and feel their best, you literally transform lives on a daily basis. Safe to say: Anyone dating a stylist will reap those same benefits by putting their own best face (and hair) forward!
