This is the professional who advises and assists clients in the search for their own beauty ideal, specifying, developing and implementing it in their external image. The beauty ideal is the way in which the set of each person's physical traits can be combined with the set of colours, lines, shapes, volumes, symbols, etc., that complement them. Beauty ideals vary with regard to geography, civilizations, sensitivities and, of course, according to the different aesthetic cultures.

• Define the beauty ideal with which the client wants to identify, using the appropriate tools and resources, for example, the "beauty ideal books", a set of visual reproductions of these ideals that helps one better visualise the possibilities.
• Identify the client's physical traits using the "information sheet". With this sheet, the types of colours, lines, shapes and volumes of the person's external image are detailed, in order to see if these physical characteristics relate to one of the standard or fashionable beauty ideals.
• Ask the technical collaborators (professionals in hairdressing, aesthetics, make-up, nutrition, etc.) for quality assessments and possibilities.
• Establish and specify the external, physical appearance that the client should have.
• Create a graphic and visual proposal for the client, using the appropriate tools and resources (suggestions related to hairdressing, make-up, wardrobe, etc).
• Carry out the proposed beauty consulting process, working with the technical collaborators.
• Audit the quality and excellence level of the service provided.
