How to get a haircut you won't hate
We've all left the salon with a cut that's too short or a colour that's just a bit off. Here are some tips for getting the perfect cut and colour out of a stylist.
1. Pick the right stylist. If you have curly hair, find someone who specialises in super-curly cuts. The same goes for getting your hair coloured.
2. Do your homework. Nothing annoys a stylist more than when someone sits down in their chair and tries to explain the cut they want without a picture.
3. Never say, 'Do whatever you want.' Big mistake. It's rarely a good idea to give your hair completely over to a stylist.
4. When talking length, show with your hands. Never say you want three inches off. Actually take your hand and karate chop it right where you want it till.
5. Listen to your stylist. Be sure and ask questions. And if your stylist says it won't look good, chances are you won't.
6. Be honest with your stylist about your everyday hairdo routine. If you do not spend more than five minutes for a quick wash, towel dry and a soppy wet ponytail, tell the stylist so that she does not give you a style that takes hours to maintain.
