Communication is a two-way street. Make sure your stylist is a master and has the technical expertise that is necessary to execute the desired cut. Your stylist should explain the steps involved in creating a hair style that is right for you. Bring in photos—as the saying goes, “a picture is worth a thousand words.” Your stylist should explain to you whether or not you should have that particular style and, if not, why not. You have to ask lots of questions—not only about whether the look is right for you, but also how much time and what styling products are necessary to maintain the desired look.
