How to Choose the Perfect Haircut

Cutting your hair can be a big decision, especially if you’re wanting to make a big change! So, how do you know if you’re choosing the right cut for you? While your style should prevail above all else, there are a few things to consider before chopping those locks. Here’s what you can take into account when choosing your next hairstyle:

  • Think about your face shape. Believe it or not, the overall shape of your face can play a big part in what hairstyles look flattering on you. Finding a cut that balances and enhances your natural features can be a game changer. To determine your face shape, check out this quiz.
  • Take your hair type into account. Your natural hair pattern could make or break a haircut. For instance, curly and fine hair types often work best with layers, while medium hair textures look great with straight cuts. To find your hair type, take this quiz.
  • Consider your lifestyle. What you do day to day can impact what hairstyle will work best for you. For example, if you’re active, you may consider a cut that still lets you pull your hair back. If you’re around small children, you might want a cut that’s shorter so little hands don’t get caught in your hair.
  • Ask your stylist for opinions. If you’re still not sure what you want, no worries! Your stylist is there to help. Ask them what they’d recommend if you gave them full rein of your hair.
