A bad haircut can be embarrassing and extremely annoying. You will probably agree if you ve ever been at the receiving end of a bad haircut. Usually bad haircut for men can be the fault of the barber or the hair stylist but sometimes it can also be the fault of the client. Sometimes clients can get imaginative and use male celebrity figures for guides to the type of haircut they want. This may, however, not be entirely realistic. For instance, if you are not Brad Pitt, there is remote possibility that your hairstylist can make you start looking like him.
It s no crime to use male celebs for your style guide but you must be practical in your expectations of your hair stylist. To have thinning hair and opt for Colin Farrell s haircut is quite certainly to be disastrous.
What to Say to your Stylist
To ensure nothing goes wrong take a picture of the specific hair style you would like. Here are some steps:
• If you hair stylist tells you it s unreasonable or impossible with your kind of hair; or even that it might not suit you at all, be open to his or her suggestions.
• If you have miscommunication with your stylist or have an inflexible attitude, you might just end up with a terrible haircut. Not to mention the money you ll have wasted!
• Listen to the alternatives, you might just find something you like.
Blast from the Past
Some men who ve reached their 40s or 50s like to deny that they re not still teenagers. They hang on to decades old fashion statements and trends from your grandfather s time, most of which have passed into disuse and usually for good reason! But even without a hangover on the past, some young men too like to sport disastrous haircuts; they just don t like to accept it. Keep your ears open: if you hear your girlfriend suggest a different stylist she probably means your hair style is awful!
A good way to check if you re holding on to a hair style of the past for way too long is:
• To go through old photos.
• Track the changes in your hair styles, or lack of any!
• If you start getting uncomfortable and realize that even though you ve changed your hair pretty much looks the same for the last ten years, you probably need a new style!
Ring in Change
Once you ve decided to change your style and find (to your pleasant surprise) that your old stylist seems to think the same, you might just get overjoyed. Hold your horses. A stylist that has been working with your hair and giving it the same style year after year might just get a little too experimental. It is sometimes worth the time and money to just opt for a different stylist. Hair stylists come in all shapes, sizes and expenses! You could pay $8 for a spiffy new hairdo or up to $400. It s your decision; one made solely by you and the amount of cash you have in your pocket. Don t compromise on anything; you don t want to look like Frankenstein gave you your newest hairdo.
Making Sure You Get the Perfect Style
• So get alert and look for a stylist that will give you an easy and versatile hairdo; one that will fit any time of day, any mood at all.
A good way to check a stylist s reputation is to check out his or her older clients. If you see disaster after disaster in the waiting room, you should probably just leave. Quickly.
