Look for a portfolio with at least 20 before and after photos taken in the same lighting, without filters. Reviews mentioning density, curl pattern, or grey coverage are more useful than generic praise. Avoid profiles showing only one hair type, since versatility signals stronger training and steadier hand control.
Bringing a photo of a celebrity without considering your own face shape, hair type, or maintenance routine often leads to disappointment. Skipping the consultation saves 5 minutes but costs you 6 months of regret. Not mentioning scalp issues or allergies can trigger reactions. Be honest about your budget so the stylist can suggest realistic options.
Good aftercare advice includes a wash schedule, a recommended brush type, and a list of ingredients to avoid. Ask for written instructions covering the next 14 days, since chemically treated hair needs a 72 hour no wash window. Avoid stylists who hand you products without explaining how to use them.
Book your first appointment with a 10 to 15 minute buffer before and after the service. Allow 45 minutes for a basic cut, 90 to 120 minutes for colour, and up to 180 minutes for full highlights with toner. Confirm the stylist's experience with your hair type before the day, not at the chair.
Short styles like bobs and pixies need a trim every 4 to 6 weeks to keep their shape. Medium-length hair looks fresh with a cut every 6 to 8 weeks. Long hair can wait 8 to 12 weeks if you are growing it out. Split ends travel up the shaft, so delaying cuts often causes more damage and extra work later.
A proper consultation lasts 5 to 10 minutes and covers face shape, lifestyle, and maintenance time. Bring two reference photos and be ready to explain what you like about each one. The stylist should measure your hair's elasticity and porosity, since both numbers shape the final technique.
A hairdresser usually uses sharp scissors, thinning shears, sectioning clips, and a spray bottle for water. Modern salons also rely on ionic dryers that reach 1800 to 2200 watts and flat irons reaching 230°C. Ask which tools will be used, especially on coloured or chemically treated hair, since heat damage builds up quickly with repeated passes.
Colour price depends on the technique used, the number of colours applied, and whether bleach is needed. Full highlights take around 2 to 3 hours, while balayage can take 3 to 4 hours. Bleach is the most expensive product and is needed for lightening dark hair. Ask which brand and shade line the salon uses before booking.
Ask for a patch test 48 hours before any colour, permanent wave, or keratin service. The hairdresser applies a pea sized amount behind the ear or on the inner elbow and checks for redness, swelling, or itching after 30 minutes. Skipping this step risks contact dermatitis lasting 7 to 14 days.
Wait at least 48 hours before washing after a colour or perm. Use a deep conditioner once a week for the first month to restore moisture. Avoid tight ponytails or heat tools for the first week. Trim every 6 weeks to remove damaged ends. Book a protein treatment every 8 to 12 weeks if your hair feels gummy or overly stretchy.
