However, they are not one in the same. Someone may be a stylist but not an image consultant while most image consultants are stylists. Fashionist would perhaps be a more apt term for someone who styles an individual in the latest trends to create a contemporary look. An image consultant can certainly perform this service but they can do much more. They take a holistic approach to their client in that they involve themselves with the inner and outer personality.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoSubtitle\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><span>Why Seek Out an Image Consultant?<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/abfabstyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/3ede1d23fd6aab9.bmp\" border=\"0\" alt=\"before image consultant\" width=\"155\" height=\"155\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><span><span> <\/span>The hackneyed response to this question is \u201cbecause image matters\u201d.
