Studio Wandel in Berlin-Mitte: Image Consulting for the Perfect Application

Studio Wandel is located at Invalidenstraße 16 in Berlin-Mitte, between Nordbahnhof and the Museum of Natural History, and thus within walking distance of the Berlin Wall Memorial. From Nordbahnhof, it’s about three hundred meters on foot. Owner Cornelia Wandel is a trained image consultant and make-up artist, and she welcomes clients in her own premises, which she has set up for individual consultations and workshops with small groups. On site, there is also a selection of women’s clothing, accessories, and cosmetics for purchase. Those applying for a job usually start by working on their cover letter and resume. At Studio Wandel, the focus is on the part that makes the first impression in a job interview: color, cut, hairstyle, and accessories. The owner puts this into a clear formula, speaking of three seconds in which an outfit leaves its impression. Her goal is not a uniform look, but an appearance that suits the person and the desired position.

Color Consultation, Style Consultation, and Photo Make-up for Job Applications

The two core services each last about one and a half hours and cost 170 Euros each. During the color consultation, Cornelia Wandel analyzes the individual’s color type and advises on make-up and hairstyle. Clients receive a personal textile color swatch book to help with shopping. The style consultation concludes with a style folder covering proportions, cuts, materials, and patterns, and includes a look at the existing wardrobe. For application photos, there is a dedicated photo make-up for 99 Euros, which takes about an hour. Those who prefer to do their own make-up can book a make-up coaching session, creating a routine of no more than ten minutes, plus a beauty pass for home use. If shopping is desired immediately afterward, the owner accompanies clients on a shopping tour and pre-selects stores. Additionally, workshops are offered as individual training or for groups, some in cooperation with the Volkshochschule (adult education center). Appointments are made by phone, email, or via the contact form. Those wishing to gift a consultation can order a voucher for a single service or for a freely chosen amount.
