Before your barber appointment: a practical guide to leaving happy
A good barber appointment starts with a little preparation. A few minutes of thought makes it much easier to get the look you want.
Decide what you want
Instead of just saying "cut it short", think about the result: how short on the sides, how long on top, do you want a blow-dry or styling? If you can't decide, ask your barber for a suggestion; an experienced barber can advise based on your hair type and face shape.
Show a photo
One or two photos of the style you like get results much faster than describing it. If you can, bring photos from different angles and ask your barber whether your hair suits that style.
Choose the right service
A haircut, beard trim, hair and beard together, a grooming treatment and a neck clean-up take different amounts of time. Choosing the right service when booking online reserves enough time.
Don't forget beard care
If you plan to shape your beard, avoid trimming it too short beforehand and let it grow a little; leave your barber enough to work with.
Plan your time
Leave a buffer before and after so nobody rushes at busy hours. If you are running late, tell your barber; it protects your time and the next customer's.
On the day
Arriving with clean, product-free hair is usually good, though it can depend on your barber's preference. Check your reminder and, if you need to cancel, do it before the cancellation period passes.
