I thought I would post some hairdresser templates for work references and statutory declarations so you get an idea of how they are suppose to be written. These documents are meant as a guide only, I would advise against you writing them word for word as these have been submitted to the TRA and may be held on file. All I ask is you be inventive with your references and reword them in one way or another...

To Whom it may concern,
To Whom it may concern,
Sam has been employed as a senior stylist at the hair works for 12 years, she began her employment in 1990 and is currently still employed by the company working a minimum of 10 hours over 2 days, she also carries out some overtime in busy periods which are normally Thursday nights and the run up to Christmas holidays. I consider Sam as very professional and competent in her trade as a hairdresser as well as being punctual and reliable, she is extremely trusted within the company that I even allow her to manage the shop in an assistant role whenever I am unavailable to work, her role as an assistant is to count and bank the days takings, open and close the shop, consult with sales reps and stocktaking duties, she also overseas the training of apprentices in the latest hair and colouring techniques when required.
Sam is an excellent hairstylist who attends regular courses on cutting and colouring trends and has a vast knowledge of modern and contemporary hairstyles for both men and women, In the time that Sam has been employed by my company she has been able to build up a large client base over the years and has an excellent attitude towards client rapport and care.
Her normal day to day activities within the company would involve her arriving about half an hour before her first client arrives in order to set up her section, here she would prepare her tools of the trade by making sure she has all the equipment she would need to complete her work. A typical hairdressers main equipment would consist of scissors, a range of various sized brushes and combs a hairdryer, straightening iron, gels, mouses and hairsprays.
When a client arrives they are first greeted by one of our assistants who would offer a refreshment of either tea, coffee or a cold drink once the client feels relaxed Sam will consult with the client about what they would like done to their hair, Sam will then show hair magazines and colour charts to the client and advise them on up to date cuts and colours. Sam will then usher her client to her personal work station and preform her task that had been verbally agreed beforehand with the client.
If a female client had requested a haircut and style Sam would cut their hair using scissors a comb a razor for texture to the hair and thinning scissors, for a male client she would also use an electric razor for shortening the hair and trimming around the neck, ear and cheek area. Once the haircut is completed she would then style the hair with the use of a hairdryer and straightening irons and to complete the style, finish with the addition of either styling mouse, gel or hairspray.
If Sam had to preform a colour on a client she would preform a skin test 48 hours prior to a full head colour, this is to make sure that the client does not have an allergic reaction to the chemicals used in the process of applying colour to the hair. There are many techniques in the use of colouring and they consist of full head tints, woven highlights and low lights and capped highlights. We stock many different colour products and different strength peroxides at the salon which Sam would mix together using a brush and plastic bowl to achieve the colour, she would then apply the this to the clients hair with a brush on to easi-meche or foils. The client would then have to wait until the colour takes hold of the hair, once this has been achieved Sam would then wash the excess from the hair and then preform a cut and style to the client.
If Sam was required to carry out perming she would decide what kind of perm would be best for the clients hair as there are different perms which consist of alkaline or acid perms for coloured, fine and normal hair she would then decide what colour sized perm rods she would use to achieve the required perm tight or body perm to required style, once the perm has been completed she would then preform a cut and restyle if required.
A client may request their hair to be straightened after Sam has cut or coloured the hair, to achieve this look she would use heated straightening irons this gives the hair a straighter and more sleek and smooth style which would then be finished off with serum or styling wax.
Sam will be sorely missed as an employee not only by our company but by many of her clients that she has worked with over the years. We wish her all the success with her future prospects in Australia.
Yours truly
