1.Dont move your head when youre in the chair, only move when your stylist says so.
2.venture to find images of hair similar to yours.
Similarly, go in with your hair close to your natural texture if youre dealing with a new stylist.
4.Mention if something bothers you: I hate blow-drying.
I need to be able to put it up.
My forehead looks weird.
5.DONT WEAR A HOODIE or a turtleneck.
6.Your hair doesnt need to be dirty for me to style it.
In fact, I would REALLY prefer it if it was clean.
And it also doesnt need to be dirty/clean/covered in coconut oil for me to color it.
Just come in with normal, dry hair.
7.Dont bring filtered pics or ones that are wigs.
(Dont have unrealistic expectations.)
Dont lie about the box color youve put on your hair (including henna) or products you use.
It doesnt matter if you tell the truth, the truth will come out.
But it will save everyone a lot of heartache if youre just upfront about it.
10.Dont expect a miracle color change without investing a lot of time and money.
11.Always clean your ears before a haircut.
You dont want someone up that close to you with waxy manky ears.
Thats asking me to do two haircuts, come on.
13.Dont switch how youre sitting halfway through the cut!
Even crossing/uncrossing your legs can make a difference in how the cut turns out!
14.hey know what 6 inches actually looks like on a ruler.
Sometimes you think you want to cut that much but youre not aware of what it actually looks like.
15.If you dont like it, just be nice and to the point.
Most of us will want to help and fix it for you.
16.My girlfriend is a hairstylist.
18.If youre adamant on keeping the length the way it is, you have to let them know!
Otherwise, theyll just cut what they think is dead!
19.Do not move around like you just drank a bunch of caffeine.
There is a risk of getting cut.
Just be polite to say no if you dont want it.
21.Be realistic about your hairstyle.
Certain styles are better for one hair punch in over another.
22.Communicate with your stylist about what you want and dont want.
If you want to try a product or trimmed in a specific way, let the stylist know!
They cannot be mind readers of your needs and wants.
We know how itchy it can get when you do that.
26.Come in with freshly washed hair and no product (e.g., gel) in it.
Your hair isnt Sallys.
30.Dont lift your head in the shampoo bowl!
Thats how we end up soaking the back of your shirt!
