Revealed — 7 secrets of every woman with the ‘oh-so-perfect’ haircut!

Most of us do not spend enough time discussing their haircut before they get one. The result is that we end up getting a haircut we’re not very proud of. To prevent such a situation the next time, here are some questions you could have your hairstylist answer for you:

What’s the key hair problem?

Too dry, too frizzy or just too thick to handle? Discuss these hair-issues with your stylist to get you a cut that puts an end to these problems or at least reduces them as much as possible. Knowing this is crucial so you can determine a healthy haircare routine accordingly. Have dry curly hair? Here is how you can manage them with much ease.

What kind of maintenance would the hairstyle require?

A good haircut is only good enough if you know how to maintain it. Know what products and ingredients to skip and what to incorporate instead. For instance, curly, dry hair would require a moisturising hair mousse and scanty limp hair could be managed with a hair volumising cream. However, don’t over do it with these products as excess product build-up can weigh down your hair texture. Additionally, focus on your haircare regime – ensure it is getting all the needed nutrients for better hair growth. Egg hair packs can transform dull damaged hair and ensure better hair growth.

How often would you need to trim?

Your trim-time could depend on various factors like the nature of your hair growth, how short you want to keep the length and how prone you are to split-ends. So figure it out with your stylist and plan a hair-trim appointment accordingly. Try using some fenugreek seeds and yoghurt to help resolve your split-ends problem.

What are the best suited hairstyles for this cut?

Want to make most of your haircut? Be a pro at a hairstyle meant exactly for the haircut! With the right hair-do, maintaining and managing your hair will be so much simpler. If you sport a longer length with a step cut, plaiting your hair into a loose braid especially for commuting hours could save you from hair-damage. A head band for a bob cut and a half-pony for shoulder length hair would work just fine.

Is the haircut meant for your hair texture?

Irrespective of the style you like, look for a cut that matches your hair type and texture. You don’t want your new haircut making it unmanageable and rather worse for you. Step-cuts have a tendency to grow into a tail shape especially in longer lengths. This could thin your hair down and look unhealthy. In such a case a u-cut, with layers could be a better option.

Should you keep it long or short?

Your haircut has a lot to do with the kind of lifestyle you are living. If you are always on-the-go and have no haircare time in hand, then it’s wiser to get a shorter hairstyle. Don’t hesitate to discuss the length of hair that is most suitable for your hair type. If you are experiencing excessive hair fall and have dry dull hair, it’s only wise to chop off that length and keep it short. Thicker and lustrious hair texture are also manageable in a shorter length. Also, maintaining long hair was never this easy. Find out how!
