Before Your Haircut

If you’ve had a bad haircut before — you’re not alone

​

Many of my clients come to me after feeling disappointed, over-layered, or not listened to at other salons. Some were told “trust the process” — and never felt safe again.

If that’s you, I want you to know:You’re not difficult, and you’re not asking for too much.A great haircut, however, does need clarity and trust — on both sides.

How we get the best result together​​​

Before I start cutting, we’ll talk through your haircut direction clearly and agree on the plan.​Once we begin, I guide the cutting process. This allows me to protect the shape, balance, and condition of your hair.​Changing direction halfway through or watching every snip can limit what’s possible — even when the inspiration is beautiful.

About changes during the haircut​

If the haircut direction changes significantly once we’ve started, I may need to rebuild the structure. This can affect the final result or require a redesign appointment.

Abstract Sand Texture

This haircut is right for you if…​​​

  • You want a shape that wears well over time​

  • You’re open to professional guidance once we agree on a plan

  • ​You value thoughtful, personalised cutting over rushed results

It may not be the right fit if…​

  • You need full control over each step while I’m cutting

  • You feel very anxious seeing any layering at all

  • You’re unsure of the outcome and not ready to trust the process yet

If that’s the case, a consultation‑first appointment may suit you better.

Blow‑dry, dry cutting, refining details and balance

This isn’t rushed — it’s designed for clarity and longevity.

What can take extra time (and why)

Extra time may be needed if:

  • You’re feeling unsure and want to explore several options

  • The haircut direction changes once we’ve started

  • You’d like step-by-step reassurance or detailed adjustments

If time runs out:

  • We’ll keep today’s result safe and complete

  • Or plan a follow-up appointment to finish refining

Additional time or follow-ups are charged at $100 per hour, so everything stays clear and fair for both of us.

Haircuts are booked by time needed rather than length alone.
In rare cases, additional time may be required due to hair density, condition, complexity, or decision-making needs that become clear during the appointment.
