If you want to have a dream hair cut in a salon, these tips will be helpful.

  1. Don’t Cross Your Legs. Believe it or not, -- it skews your posture, so don't cross your legs when you sit in the stylist's chair, otherwise, your haircut could be uneven once you stand up. Instead, sit up in the chair, legs uncrossed.
  2. Bring Pictures. The biggest hair disasters arise when your stylist doesn't understand what hairstyle you want. Pictures will help convey your message. Better communication, better result.
  3. Be Realistic. You may love a hair style on a celebrity, or a magazine model, but keep in mind that your hair may not be the same texture or your face may not be the same shape as hers, or, the hair cut won't look the same on you. Ask your stylist for variations appropriate to you.
  4. Show With Your Hand. Don’t tell your stylist how many inches you would like to be cut, show your stylist with your hand where you'd like your hair to fall.
  5. Color After Haircut. Don’t choose your hair color until you've trimmed. Only add highlights or try a new shade after you see the cutting result.
  6. Go for Advice From a Stylist. Hair styling keeps your haircut refreshed. So, as your stylist finishes your hair, don’t be heisted to ask your home styling process details and tips.
  7. Renew Your Products. To get the right effect for your new haircut, get the latest info of new hair styling products available in the market.
  8. Surprise Yourself. Sometimes, an unexpected urge to go a new hair cut style you have never thought about, it might be just perfect for you! So, surprise yourself!
Which styles go well with your hair type?
  • Thin and fine hair: If your hair is thin and fine, keep it short and fluffy
  • Medium or coarse hair: This hair can handle most styles
  • Heavy or thick hair: If your hair is heavy or thick, keep it at a medium length or it will not hang well.
Why Not Haircut At Home?
It is not just about time or money. It is fun to give yourself and family members those touch-up haircuts between your visits to the hairstylist.
Trimming your hair is just as easy as cutting patterns in paper. A trim is simply cutting off the ends of small lengths of hair. Anyone can trim bangs or hair ends between hair salon visits. There are just three things you need to know to do a professional - looking touch-up between cuts.
  1. Always use extremely sharp scissors. No matter what type of shears you use, just make sure they are razor sharp. If your scissors can cut through this with ease without pulling the other end of a piece of thread which holding with one end to make it taut, then they are probably sharp enough to trim hair.
  2. Prepare the hair. First, thoroughly comb or brush out all the snarls and tangles. Wet thick hair and long hair first. Make sure no hairs are hidden behind the ears or nape of the neck.
  3. Don’t cut too much. Always cut off less hair than the length you want. Hair will shrink after being trimmed, especially if it is wet when you trim it. Curly hair, "cowlicks", and bangs will shrink the most.
Some other tips:
  1. If you are trimming short hair, don't be afraid to bend the ears while cutting. Ears are flexible.
  2. If you are trimming your own hair, be sure you have a mirror for the front and another for the back.
  3. When finished trimming the hair, shave the remaining hair off the back of the neck with a razor or small clippers. Sometimes this simple step is all that is necessary to maintain a well-groomed appearance between haircuts.
