How to Decide Which Haircuts Are Best for You [infographic]

When considering your appearance, you have lots of choices to make, like what clothes and shoes to wear, how to do your makeup or style your beard, and what accessories to match to your style for the day. One of the most important and lasting decisions about your appearance, however, is how you decide to cut and style your hair. Depending on your choice, it could be an appearance you’re stuck with for a few months before your hair grows out again, so you should be sure to choose something you’ll like. Here’s how to decide which haircuts are best for you.

• Shop around for ideas: Your list of options doesn’t have to end with the haircuts you’re familiar with. Check out some magazines, ads, or online pictures to see if there might be a haircut or style out there that you really like. While it’s never guaranteed that the haircut will look the same on you as it did on the model, it can still serve as a great starting point for you and your hairstylist.
• Consider your features and face shape: The length of your neck, the sharpness of your cheekbones, or the roundness of your face are just a few things that can easily impact how certain haircuts will look on you. That’s why it’s important to consider these features and which you would prefer to highlight when deciding on a haircut.

• Take your consultation seriously: Here at Salon Povera, one of the first things we’ll start with when you come in for a haircut is a consultation with a hairstylist. We’ll ask about how you currently feel about your hair, what you might want to change, your preferences, and your lifestyle. From there, we can determine whether your dream haircut will work or make suggestions for other haircuts that may be better for you.

The main goal we have here at our salon is that you leave absolutely delighted with your new ‘do. If you need more help with deciding on which haircuts are best for you, don’t hesitate to drop in for a chat.
