Questions to Ask Before Going to a Barber Shop
If you want to have the perfect haircut, don’t just waltz into a barber shop and expect the barber to give you a fantastic hairstyle right away. Instead, you’ll want to ask questions that help you and your barber decide which haircut is ideal for you. We’ve listed some of the questions you should ask below:
Which hairstyles look great on me?
It’s natural to want to copy an attractive hairstyle that you see on other people. But remember: what looks great on a runway model or your coworker might not look great on you (and vice versa). Because of this, you should ask your barber which haircuts are ideal for your hair texture and facial shape. This way, you’ll get a hairstyle that highlights your best features and makes you more handsome and attractive.
Can you recommend a style that needs minimal maintenance?
If you have a hectic schedule, you obviously would not want to spend hours styling your hair. So, make sure to ask your barber for a low-maintenance hairstyle. By getting this type of haircut, you’ll have to spend just a few minutes styling your hair, and you won’t have to worry about its upkeep throughout the day.
Pro tip: if you have Afro-textured hair and want a low-maintenance hairstyle, consider having your hair braided at an African braiding salon. While braids aren’t completely maintenance-free, they allow you to leave the house without having to fuss a lot over your hair.
When should I get my next haircut?
Most types of hairstyles look excellent when they’re new but slowly look limp and unsightly as they grow out. Because of this, you should get regular trimming to make sure your hairstyle looks fresh and attractive at all times. Your barber should tell you about the ideal trimming frequency for your haircut, and you should stick to this trimming schedule as much as possible.
