Getting Your Dream Haircut
What if we told you that you are just one haircut consultation away from getting the hairstyle you always wanted?
Whenever you sit in the salon chair, you want to leave feeling and looking your best. After all, your hair is one of the first things that people notice about you. And if you walk out of the salon with confidence, that confidence will radiate in every step you take.
So how can you make sure you get the dream haircut you always wanted? Here are some of our best tips and tricks for making sure your salon experience doesn’t end up being one you’d rather forget.
1. Do Your Research
Not all haircuts are created equally, and not every haircut is going to look good on every person. Do some research leading up to your appointment about what kinds of cuts and styles will be most flattering not only to your face shape but your body shape. Whether you’re thinking of blunt cuts or long layers, you want to make sure that the style you’ve chosen is going to complement the great features you already have.
2. Think of Your Lifestyle
Before you commit to a specific style, make sure you have a schedule and a lifestyle that will allow you to make the most of it. Do you have to pull your hair back in a ponytail for any reason? Do you have the time in the morning to blow dry or style it? What kind of styling tools are you willing to commit to using regularly? Answers to these questions might steer you in a particular direction when it comes to how much time and energy you’re willing to dedicate to your hair.
3. Don’t Go in Empty Handed
If you have an idea of what kind of style you want, the best way to make sure you get it is by bringing in a picture. Bring in a variety of pictures of celebrities who are rocking the style you are thinking about to help guide your stylist. Furthermore, bring in some pictures of what you do NOT want to make sure your stylist can avoid any faux pas that can make your dream haircut turn into a nightmare.
4. Keep an Open Mind
Come in with photographs of exactly what you were thinking, but make sure to keep an open mind with your stylist. They are there to offer their professional expertise in order to manage your expectations. If something like your natural texture is going to prevent you from achieving the look you’re going for, your stylist can help you make modifications that will work for you.
5. Consider Your Budget
Before you choose your style, consider how much maintenance it is going to require and whether or not your budget can handle it. Is your style going to require a trim every few weeks? Or is it going to grow out more naturally so you can stretch the time between salon visits? Make sure you aren’t tied into keeping up with a style you either don’t have time or money to maintain properly.
6. Be Honest
Whether during the cut or after the big reveal, if your style isn’t coming out the way you had hoped, speak up! Don’t be afraid to let the stylist know that you have questions or concerns. Doing so right then and there gives the stylist an opportunity to fix it. If it takes you a few days for concerns to bubble up, don’t be afraid to contact your stylist later, either. They want you to look your best as much as you do!
