Buying a new line is the easy part. The hard part is getting the whole team to apply it the same way and explain it without making things up. A simple plan keeps each person from ending up with their own version of the protocol.
Who should learn first?
Choose one person to take charge: whoever works most in that category or teaches best. She reads the full manual, clears up questions with whoever distributes the line to you, and prepares the practice for everyone else.
Ask your distributor what materials and training they can provide, because that is set with each one.
What should each person know from the manual?
For each product: which hair it's for, how it's applied, how long it processes, and what comes next. Summarize that on one page and keep it in the work area.
Start with a multi-use product: Uso Indispensable has 3 uses according to the manual. It's applied as a reconstructive treatment on damp hair before finishing, as a leave-in in small amounts, or as a catalyst after shampoo and before the mask. It's a good exercise in telling one use from another.
How should you organize the practice?
First a demonstration, then practice on a team model or a practice head. Each person applies the full protocol with the manual at hand and the time on a timer.
If the line includes chemical products, follow the manufacturer's instructions and do the strand test during practice as well.
How do you align what the client hears?
Agree on three sentences: who it's for, what it does, and what it doesn't promise. Practice in pairs: one plays a client with doubts and the other answers. If someone doesn't know the answer, she should say so and check the manual rather than improvise.
How do you review the first services?
During the first services, have the person in charge sit in and note what keeps coming up: too much product, missed times, client questions. Also track usage so you can compare it with the manual's yield.
Hold a short meeting to make corrections, and update the summary page with what you learned.
In summary
One person in charge, a one-page summary, timed practice, and a review of the first services. That way the line is applied the same no matter who serves the client.
