Very true that there are people who just want to get it done, but there are also people who want to sit and chit chat the entire time. To each their own. The school's salon atmosphere is one where the students are being instructed. They have to do a consult with each guest, regardless of how regular or how many times the guest has been there because this is the way we are being taught. Once the consultation is done, we check in with the floor instructor who comes over and verifies with the guest the service and type of hairstyle (or cut) they want. The student then gets to work. Once done, they get the instructor who goes over what was done to make sure it was done correctly. So, there has got to be talking involved because it is part of the learning process. Students also take longer to do the service, as they don't have the years of experience under their belt. With time, I will get faster, I know this, but right now, a 15 minute haircut is going to take me 45 minutes.
The 90 degree cut I gave my mannequin last night would take the experienced stylist 20 minutes from start to finish. It took me all night, considering we were learning it in baby steps due to the complications of the cut.
