If you ask people what they expect when they visit their hairdresser, they all say “One that listens to them and understands their needs”. Cutting hair is easy; making sure we understand what our clients want and assessing if that is really the best hairstyle for their face shape and lifestyle is often harder.
-Take along some pictures, use images to explain what you want, bring as many as you require to get the look across, find a hairdresser who takes the time to understand what you want. -Spending money on a quality cut from a reputable salon that values staff education and training will save you money in the long run. Be specific; explain your fashion tastes and the amount of time you spend on your hair each day. -Do you have an area that annoys you? You know, the piece of hair that you fiddle with or touch most of the time. Can something be done about it? -What are your hair habits? Do you like to tuck your hair behind your ears? Will your new style accommodate this? -Check out some of the looks that the salon is creating. If you see one you like, don’t be afraid to ask questions. Would it work and what is involved and that includes the styling tools and products needed to maintain the style. -Listen to the hairdresser's feedback about the hairstyle you have selected. A skilled stylist knows what look will complement your best features. Be prepared for alternatives and a different perspective from what you are used to.
