The result of a haircut is the concern of not only the master, but also the client

Every man, planning to visit a barbershop, hopes to get a stylish and high-quality haircut. After all, he does not go to an ordinary hairdresser, but to a professional in the field of men’s hairstyles and beards. Unfortunately, there are cases when the client leaves the barbershop dissatisfied with the result, but not always only the master is to blame. How to prepare for going to the salon and correctly explain what hairstyle you want?

Choosing a good stylist

First of all, you need to choose an experienced salon employee – barber with experience. In a good barbershop, rather high demands are placed on the employees. If you get to an intern, it does not mean at all that he will definitely spoil your hair, but it is better to look for an experienced master. He is able to visually assess your facial features and recommend a haircut that will definitely suit you. A real master knows tricks that will help you hide baldness, make your hair more obedient, facilitate the styling process, etc.

You can choose barber according to reviews on the Internet, after reading what his clients write about this or that master. You can also use advice by asking a friend where he got such a trendy hairstyle.

Choosing a haircut

Arriving at the barbershop , you can say "do whatever you want with my head to make it look good", or you can add specifics and ask for a certain hairstyle:

• box or semi-box;
• British or Canadian;
• undercut;
• caesar;
• dill;
• fade or other trendy haircuts.

If you are not familiar with these names, just search the Internet for their pictures. Then evaluate whether such a hairstyle will suit your face and hair. For example, short hair at the back of the head with thick bangs will look good on a face with defined cheekbones, but will not suit those with a round face shape. And dill is recommended for thin and rare hair.

Don’t be late!

Accuracy – it is not only a manifestation of respect for the master. Having made an appointment for a certain time and being a few minutes late, you may lose the opportunity to describe your wishes in detail and receive advice from the barber on how to care for your new hairstyle. The master himself will be in a hurry, since the next customer is waiting for his turn after you. In addition, in some barbershops, being late is a good reason to cancel an appointment.

Discuss the details in advance

Everything you want to say to the salon employee about your hairstyle, say it in advance, and not during the course of his work, because it is difficult to adjust on the go. If you are worried that you will not be able to explain the details, show the barber a photo from the Internet of the haircut you want. If the barber tries to dissuade you from the chosen option, do not take it as imposing someone else’s opinion. An experienced barbershop employee can see whether this option is right for you.

Less movement, more attention

Not everyone is ready to sit still in a chair, but try to keep your movements to a minimum. If, for example, you will need to answer important calls in the process, warn about it in advance. Try to be less distracted and respond to the barber’s request to hold your head higher, lower or lean forward. Don’t be silent if the barber’s movements or tools make you uncomfortable. If you’re in pain, hot, or uncomfortable, be sure to say so.

Don’t hesitate to ask

If you suddenly think that the barber is not cutting your hair the way you wanted, ask him a question. Perhaps you now see only the preparation for work or you will have time to make your corrections in time. Agree that it is better to be sure that the process is going according to plan than to sit and wait for the result, preparing for the worst. After all, even if you are satisfied with the result of the work, emotional stress can negatively affect your mood.

One more chance

Should you go to the same master again if you were not satisfied with the previous result? It all depends on the situation. If it’s just that the barber took off a lot of length and you wanted less, but otherwise liked everything, then just tell him about it next time. If you were satisfied with the atmosphere of the barbershop, the service, the absence of delays and queues, and the price pleased you, then when you visit again, just explain to the barber what was wrong.
