What would you ask at a hairdressers if you wanted your hair like this?

http://www.zimbio.com/2008+Hairstyles


I am in desperate need of a haircut and I would like my hair like the one in the link but I do not have a clue what to ask for when I go to the Barbers!


Please help ;)What would you ask at a hairdressers if you wanted your hair like this?
you must read this link this very informative information regards usWhat would you ask at a hairdressers if you wanted your hair like this?
To be honest I think it looks ugly.......





But you can take the picutre in and say you want that cut, and they'll do it for you (assuming your hair is long enough for it).
Best advice is to take the picture with you to the barber.
Bring him the picture. Interpretation of what you say and what they hear can vary so a picture eliminates that mis-communication. Keep in mind that when its cut it will not look like the photo without product in your hair first, so I would suggest that you actually go to a hair salon rather than a barber shop, where trends and classes on techniques are more current there than with your local old guy at the corner shop. Good luck
Cool cut





Just print out a picture and take take it with you. Good luck

Please answer!!


xxHow do I ask for a scene haircut at the hairdressers?
well, considering that your printer's broken, i'd say that you should try drawing the style in a couple of different angles, the way that you would want it and hope for it to look like. :)





because from this one picture, it looks like it would be very difficult to assess the hair style all the way around.





also, if you have a mobile phone with an SD card adaptor, you could transfer the picture to your phone. :D





umm, yeah. anyway...





as for a worded description, it's kind of hard to describe, as words don't give the exact same mental image to all people, but i'd suggest first telling your hair dresser that it is an ';alternative'; hair style.





ask for a loooooong side fringe that's swept to the right (or if you want it to the left, specify specify specify), and the layers framing your face to be kept long and then gradiate to longer as they go down.





short layers on the top, gradiates a bit as they go down, with one (longest) long layer on the bottom.





but i reallyyyyyyyyyyy want to stress, PLEASE don't go in to get it cut without some sort of visual reference.





i'm not saying that it absolutely won't turn out right without one, but the odds are are that it probably won't turn out the way you wanted it. this goes along with any hairstyle.





also, it probably won't turn out EXACTLY like the picture to a tee, and it may take several hair cuts to get this style before it actually happens, or you may need to cut on it some yourself after you get it done.





so make sure first that you reaaaaaally want it. bad.





and, like the person above me said, the upkeep is very high maintenance.





my hair's maintenance is similar to what i can assume you'd have to do to style this particular cut, and i'll copy and paste another answer that i used to describe the process of styling:





as for styling,





i'd say that to achieve more volume in the uppermost layers, while your hair is still damp, apply a small amount of sculpting liquid to the roots [i use Bed Head Creative Genius鈩? but this is only if you want really intense volume... lol], and then hold your head upside down while you blow dry your hair, concentrating on the roots first and then the ends. (seems strange, but it really works.... for me at least. lol.)





if you don't have naturally straight hair, then straighten only the ends of your hair with a flat iron, try your best not to pull too hard so as to take away volume...





work in sections and back comb at the roots and lightly spray them with hair spray.


wait for the hairspray to become dry then... i guess, kind of ';scrunch'; your hair at the top? lol. it makes it poof out more, and helps separate the hairsprayed sections so that they don't look stringy.





also, it looks like she may be wearing extensions, so you either have to put those in at the bottom, or if you're using your own hair, just straighten the bottom most layers. (however, you'd want to straighten your bottom layers after blow drying and before the rest of the steps.)





and remember, if you still don't get the results that you want, play around with it a bit and see what works best for you. ;)





if you need any more help or have any more questions, feel free to contact me and i'll do my best to help. :]





^but this is just an estimate of what you'd have to do, as this was used to describe a similar but still different style.





-----





and, you will probably end up using a BUTTLOAD of shampoo. lol.





but anyway, i hope that this has helped, and good luck with your hair!!鈾?:]How do I ask for a scene haircut at the hairdressers?
Theoretically;; the haircut you want looks very nice





You wont like this but that hair cut is hard to maintain and you probrably wont be able to restyle that hair everytime you wash it





So do something else to your hair;; because if you didnt like that hairstyle once its cut on you;; it will take a while growing it back out again





Good Luck with Your hairstyle!


Just make sure you dont regret it





Edit- if you do go through with this hair style.. buy some GHD straighteners;; they are the best in keeping your hair pin straight. they cost about 100 british punds. they are expensive but they last for ages and they are really really good





I know a girl at school who had one cut and it looked fab. but then she washed it and it looked absoloutley awful. she tried to maintain it but it was too much hassle so she just gave up. and now she looks like something out of a horror movie





Good luck though

Can anyone recommend a hairdressers in London, UK, that specialises in scene/emo haircuts and colours?

I'm fed up with going to supposed edgy Covent Garden hair salons and being given the same old boring 'play-it-safe' cuts and colours. If I'm paying 拢100, I want to be given what I ask for, not what the hairdresser would prefer.





So can anyone recommend a hairdresser or salon that specialises in Scene/Emo hairstyles anywhere in London?Can anyone recommend a hairdressers in London, UK, that specialises in scene/emo haircuts and colours?
Try going to Saks or Contemporary it will be around the same price maybe a little less but they will definitely give you the hair cut you want but they will recommend the best cut for you, they wont cut it in though without your say so. Hope this helps! Can anyone recommend a hairdressers in London, UK, that specialises in scene/emo haircuts and colours?
You can find many hairdressers in London that specializes in hairdressing. The whole idea of hairdressing is to get someone's hair how you want it, so you need to explain to the hairdresser how you want it done, I'm sure they would be able to do it.

I have coloured hair and i was wondering if hairdressers can do anything to get it back to natural?

All the hairdresser can do is try to match your natural hair color by dying it, otherwise you'll have to let it grow out. Coming from experience...and never use a stripper on your hair it turns it a orangy brassy color because it just removes the color, it doesn't return your natural color.I have coloured hair and i was wondering if hairdressers can do anything to get it back to natural?

http://geethabeautytips.blogspot.com/200鈥?/a>I have coloured hair and i was wondering if hairdressers can do anything to get it back to natural?
they could put in your natural colour hair dye and eventually it would grow out or they could strip it( ireccomend you do not strip it)
  • good makeup
  • Anyone else have a phobia of going to the hairdressers?

    Its everything about it. Sitting there looking in the mirror and scared they will cut your hair the wrong wayAnyone else have a phobia of going to the hairdressers?
    yes i hate it , i don't go anymore i just leave it grown and then do the forward long layer cut myself... after years of going to diff salons and many tears, they never ever get it right or how u want it ... and they charge u all that money so u can go home and cry !!Anyone else have a phobia of going to the hairdressers?
    For many years, I had below waist length hair and was terrified to go for a trim. Now that my hair is shoulder length, I still have a slight anxiety of too much getting cut off or not being able to go home and do anything with it. When my daughter got her long hair cut, I was even more nervous watching her. But the more we went for trims, the better it has gotten.
    Yes, I have this phobia, but it's the being touched bit I don't like.


    Also having to look at yourself and say great! Even though you don't like it. I do my own hair, and it looks a mess- but I' a man and can get away with it.
    Yep! I hate it heaps!





    I remember four years ago when I was twelve my hair needed a haircut so we went to a hairdresser and it took her ages to put layers on my hair!





    She did a mistake and then she tried to fix it up by cutting more to even it up and when it was finished my beautiful long hair was no longer long! I was so upset!





    She had cut 8 cm or something off my hair and I was so upset I never wanted to go to a hairdresser again! lolz!





    But luckily I found a new hairdresser two years ago and she is absolutely good! She does whatever you tell her to do and she hasn't made a single mistake!





    I'm happy that I can finally trust someone with my hair and not have to worry about a thing!





    Anyway I hope this helped :-)

    Yes and no. A while back I decided I was going to have my long hair cut . I think it took me over an hour to finally walk through the door ,I was terrified, but once I was seated and caped it was like there was no turning back so I just relaxed and watched in amusement as the stylist chopped it off. When I noticed she had started to go a bit shorter than I first intended I got somewhat nervous again but kinda went with it so she ended up giving me this short barber style cut. Scary , a little, crazy, yes.
    I generally hate people touching my hair, If people touch It Ill flip and go on a mad one Lol
    I hate going to hairdressers!!! And, if you do happen to get a good haircut, the chances that they can do it again the same way are slim to none. I have let my hair length grow out until I can't stand it anymore, only to take a picture in and have them botch it up. I went in one time with almost shoulder length hair (very straggly) and wanted a long layered look. She cut the hair on top to only about 1 inch long!! How can that be a long layer in anyone's book???


    My hair grows very, very slowly, so whatever cut I have, i will have for about 6 months. If it is bad, then it is here to stay for awhile.
    Yes! I desperately need a new cut but I'm too terrified to go get it done. The last couple times I went (a long time ago) it was cut either too short, not enough layers, bangs were messed up, etc. I'm scared to go again!
    i no a little boy who has phoebia against scissors and wenever he goes to the hairdressers and sees scissors he screams
    yes i've been there and it's not a good feeling cause i'm a hairdresser me self and i have seen many just mess around with my hair.and i don't get what i realy want.hell come to me and already know what you want don't leave it to them to make you look good cause it will not work.


    good luck.
    Yes, I really don't like to do it. Too many bad experiences. Usually it was cut way too short, some of them get really carried away.
    i'm a hairstylist who has a serious phobia of going to get my hair done! too funny, huh?





    the whole experience , from greeting to paying is one big anxiety attack.





    i, personally, do EVERYTHING in my power to make my clients feel COMFORTABLE. (when i go to a salon i feel like cattle.)


    i like my clients to feel their hair durring the process; shake their heads to see how the hair lays naturally (so it'll look good doing nothing to it), bring a friend to talk to (because once i get in 'the zone' i don't talk); i also like to PAMPER my clients. in my opinion, it's not too expensive to hand them a warm towel at the beginning of the service and a hand massage at the end. scalp massage durring the shampoo, shoulder massage before styling.


    i want to get to know my clients. i want to know how much time they normally spend on their hair - how much time would you LIKE to spend on it? (more or less time).


    what's your lifestyle like? what's your personality? let's face it, a lawyer probably doesn't want the striped hilites or funky flippys and a girl with tatoos up her arms and legs probably doesn't want a super sleek, clean, flat hair.
    yes i get scared to for exactly the same reason you should ask some one you know that is a hair dresser so you get used to them before they cut your hair
    Good yes, for so many years i ust couldn't deal i used to only get my fringe done and trime it myself, seemed safer. after my hair started to look trashed, i researched via the gossip lines (girlfriends) and asked them who they would recommend and why, they ended up getting back to me with rokk ebony salons, they were awesome also i only go to the one stylist so that they get used to my hair and no what i am looking for.





    Also let the person know how anxious you are and then suggest they take little bit by little bit off the bottom of your hair instead of taking it all off at once, because that is when mistakes can happen, or when you realise that what you said isn't what you meant.





    Be willing to spend money for a good cut because it is something people see EVERY DAY,
    I hate going to the hairdressers. I have solved the problem by shaving my head for years, drastic but effective!
    Just let it grow A girl with long hair is beautiful
    yes everybody gets it from time to time the best thing to do is get a hairstylist recommended and take a good friend with you one who,s not afraid to open their mouth in case you did it
    god yes! ive just come back from the hairdressers now and i had to pretend to my mum i loved my new hair but i absoloutly hate it. i hate at the end of the haircut when the hairdresser says is that alright? and i wanted to say No you idiot youve ruined my hair!! but obviously i couldnt so i just smiled and nodded. arghhh i hate the hairdressers!!!!
    oh yeh, not that im scared of them cutting it wrong.


    they were just really nasty to me!


    the yelled at me, pulled my hair really hard, scratched my scalp, gave me the result i didnt want.


    gosh they were awful!


    so i've been cutting, dyeing, everything myself for years in my bathroom =]


    xxxxx
    Yeah i hate the part where you have to hand over all that money!!
    Yes I do, they never give you the style that you ask for and after a few snips and lots of blow drying they charge you 拢35.

    What products do hairdressers use when cutting hair?

    because no matter where i go, whether it be a great clips or high end salon, my hair always smells so good for days! and it always smells similar. when buying shampoo/conditioner, i go for the one with the closest smell to a fresh haircut, but aside from when i'm actually washing my hair, i can never smell the scent after the shower.





    any hairdressers out there...is there a certain conditioner that's meant for use only when GETTING your hair cut?What products do hairdressers use when cutting hair?
    I am a professionla barber I use TAP water,,,no shampoo.


    when i worked in a salon we just used whatever was on the back bar.

    Why does your hair never look like it does the day you leave the hairdressers.?

    Its like a soft light floating feeling. Mines like that for about a day then back to a bush.Staightening turns it to straw, left natuarlly it just flys everywhereWhy does your hair never look like it does the day you leave the hairdressers.?
    you will find even hairdressers (myself included) can never get their hair to go the same way as when someone else does it.





    its all to do with the angles of the brushes and the tension put on the hair when drying it. which is near on impossible to do yourself.





    i have trouble doing my hair straight as it is curly, yet in the salon i can blow dry even the curliest hair poker straight!





    also it has something to do with the products we use. so don't worry even us stylist have the same problem (if that makes you feel better)Why does your hair never look like it does the day you leave the hairdressers.?
    Does your hairdresser wash your hair then blow dry it? Hairdressers are able to make your hair straight with the hairdryer. Also.. is your hair naturally bushy? After you wash your hair, it goes boofy, unless you straighten it. Hairdressers are experts and can make your hair feel light and soft.
    I was asking my hairdresser this a few weeks ago and he said it was to do with having the space and all the mirrors around. A few days later i used a conditioning treatment and give myself loads of room and time to dry it and it did make a difference. Ok it wasnt exactly the same but i was walking round the house shaking my head because it felt so light and bouncy. Try it!
    because :





    #1. tha hairdresser uses salon shampoo/conditioner to wash it with.


    #2. tha hairdresser blowdrys it straight to avoid boofyness.


    #3. tha hairdresser usually puts in product eg. smoothing serum


    #4. alot of places use ghd straightners which give a smooth straight look.





    but i agreee, i wish i could get that look at home
    Hairdressers can tell u what ur doing to kill ur hair.


    We can tell hairdressers how to find the volume of a cylinder.


    We're just all differently skilled. U should probably ask the hairdresser that question coz they can answer it better than anyone else here.
    It's easier to tame a healthy fly everywhere hair than to tame fried hair.
    Because the hairdressers are experts. We have skills in other areas!
    do you know what i mean crap aye, its to make to keep going back lol
