In this episode of ASCP Esty Talk, we continue our discussions with Black estheticians on how race and skin color play a significant role within the esthetics industry and in our everyday lives. Crystal Ochemba-Powell explains how to expand your esthetics knowledge in order to treat a wider range of diverse skin types, discusses what all estheticians should be keeping in mind when treating clients of color, and much more. The art of listening is a big theme in this episode—listening to what the consultation form tells you about your client, listening to what your clients tell you during their treatment, and also listening to what your clients might NOT be saying. Each topic discussed in this episode will help you learn how to develop a trusting relationship with your client, and will give you the tools you need to provide the best and most informed treatments possible, especially to clients of color.
