(1) Find the perfect hair cut or color

(2) Look at photos (some stylists don’t like photos but they give the stylist a visual idea as to what you’re looking for in the finished style on you)

(3) This helps to prevent miscommunication and an unpleasant experience

(4) Know your style and don’t let the stylist talk you into something you’re unsure of.

 

If you don't know what you need to know before seeing your stylist the decision is in your stylists hands.
