6 Dec 2022 Beauty

Finding the right hair stylist can be extremely difficult, especially if you are unsure of where to begin. If you want to find a hair stylist that you can go back to for years, it is important to take the time to understand your hair goals and choose a stylist that can help you reach them. As a leading provider of complete hair services for all types of hair, the team at Lively Salon knows that there is no “one size fits all” solution when it comes to hair. That is why we have provided some information to outline how to choose the right hair stylist for your needs and ensure that you are completely satisfied with your experience.

3 Tips to Find the Right Hair Stylist

To find the perfect hair stylist for your needs and goals, it is always worth performing the following actions:

1. Ask for Recommendations

With so many stylists to choose from, it can be nearly impossible to figure out where to start your search. To narrow your options down, ask your friends and family members about their hair stylist and whether they would recommend them. When asking for recommendations, be sure to ask a few people with a hair type that is similar to your own. For example, if you have thin hair and are only asking people with thick hair for recommendations, you may not have the best experience with the stylist(s) they recommend.

2. Check Social Media

Many hair stylists use their social media platforms as a portfolio for their work. This makes it easy to look at a stylist and determine the type of hair they specialize in and the styles they excel at. By viewing their social media, you can also get a feel for their experience level and see if they can help you reach your hair goals. In addition to viewing the portfolio of a hair stylist, social media makes it easy to find reviews from previous clients and determine how satisfied they are with the services they provide. All of this information can help you determine if a stylist is the right fit for your needs, further narrowing down your options and helping you create a shortlist for consultations.

3. Schedule a Consultation

Once you have narrowed down your stylist options, it is time to schedule a consultation with them. This consultation is the perfect opportunity for you and the stylist to get to know each other. By performing this consultation, you can chat with a stylist in person to convey your hair goals, discuss how you style your hair every day, and learn more about the stylist’s techniques and experience. By taking the time to get to know a stylist through a consultation, you can make a more informed decision and ensure that you have a great experience.
