Comment on How should I find a good hair cut?

  If it doesn’t fit you, you can either adjust it immediately if there’s still enough hair left, or it will grow in a couple of weeks if there’s not.

    Couple of weeks of looking silly sounds like torture for a person with already low self esteem :)

    But I will try your advice if I didn’t find anything better.

      Personally, I would try to realize others might respect you more for confident behavior like trying new hairstyles instead of ridicule you if the hairstyle isn’t the best for a few weeks.

        Never thought of it that way. I try to never judge people based off appearance, but I know people around me do.

      You can try wearing a hat for those weeks if it’s that bad.

      If you know someone with good hair, ask where they get theirs done. And try not to worry.

  If it doesn’t look good, you can always go back to your old cut and then try again when your hair gets long enough.

  Preface: I’m US based, I don’t know how barbers work where you’re from.

  For me, finding a good barber includes having a conversation about what kind of things Im looking for. This can be as broad as “I don’t really know what fits me” or “I’m looking to go a bit longer so I can style it like this picture of a person with similar hair”.

  After a couple of cuts, if I trust the barber can combine what I’m asking for with their skillset along with what they think looks good, I’ll tell them something like “look, I trust your style. You can cut it however you think looks good”. Their job is to cut your hair, but more importantly cut it in a way that makes you happy so that you keep coming back. A good barber will listen to you and get you a good haircut that gives you confidence :)

  Good luck!
