It all started with the beautiful parrot hair color I saw on the Internet.
Walking at the forefront of the trend, I will not allow this hairstyle to rot before dyeing. So I plucked up the courage to go to the barbershop and find the most expensive teacher in the shop, Mr. Tony.
Six hours later, I came home and went crazy in the mirror and listened to my friends laugh at me as a non-mainstream walker.
After two hours of crying, I decided to review it: which step went wrong, and why was I planted in the barbershop again?
Accurate description of the hairstyle,
It's harder than writing a small essay
Based on the principle of introspection, I decided to look for the reason in myself first. Am I not describing it correctly?
It's too hard to accurately describe a hairstyle. When the "Yang Mi Inner Buckle Lob Short Hair" fire was over, I found that I would only use broad words such as length and thickness to describe hairstyles. So when I finished saying "cut a short hair, the length is around the neck, the bottom is thicker to make an inner buckle", and Teacher Tony finally cut me a big sister Ma's hairstyle, I wanted to cry without tears, but I couldn't say a word to rebuke him.
After all, it's exactly what I described. For a barber who has to deal with dozens of heads a day, such a general description is a bit too abstract.
The suffering of the star people,
You don't understand
So later I learned to be smart, not enough eloquence, pictures to make up.
When the "Gold High Silver Bubble Noodle Head" was on fire, I went to the barber with a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree all-round picture, and looked at his confident look, I thought it must be stable this time.
Unexpectedly, when the perm was halfway through, the hairstylist said to me with a difficult face, "You have a lot of hair, be mentally prepared."
As a result, I walked home with a golden bubble noodle head like an explosion, and from a distance I looked like a golden retriever king with a big head filter, so that passers-by stopped and cast surprised eyes.

After realizing it, I realized that everyone's hair quality and hair volume are different. Hair texture alone, there are dry, oily, neutral, mixed and damaged hair, etc., and the amount of hair varies from person to person. People with large and hard hair may be more suitable for simple styling, while people with "fine and soft" hair may be more fluffy and good-looking when they perm wool rolls.
The stylist works very hard,
The same star model looks effortless
The experience of several failures has made me understand that what suits me is the best. Therefore, when "Zhou Dongyu Plate Inch" became the handsome representative of Yu Pi, I put up with it. When "Guo Caijie short hair" was all the rage, I came to the barbershop with a photo of my heart, but the barber told me, "The same style of stars cannot be cut." “
Like you've also heard, many celebrities have one-off hairstyles. They may seem careless, but every strand of their hair has been carefully crafted by stylists with curling irons, hairspray, and hair wax. If the shooting time is long, you need to rearrange the shape every few minutes to ensure that the hairstyle is in the best condition.
The perm is so, the hair is the same, and the hair color when the star shoots is in the best condition. Maybe they wash their heads that night and the next day enter a fading awkward period that we usually can't see.
Can you get into the industry after learning a month?
Tony, don't come here
Review a pass down, together want to cut a star of the same model, or is it all mine? So why can't even use the dyed, ordinary "Xin Zhilei short hair", my Tony can't cut it well?
It's easy to think of the barber industry with low entry barriers and uneven vocational training.
In 2020, more than 30 million people in China are engaged in the beauty salon industry. According to a questionnaire survey conducted by the China Chamber of Commerce and meituan, 82.8% of practitioners have college, high school, technical secondary school and below. Due to the uneven quality of private training institutions, a set of shampoo, hair cutting, hair coloring, perming, and nursing style training, some trainees can be on the job in as little as 3 months.
In the UK, hairdressers need to be trained for 3 to 5 years with a focus on practical skills. German barbers also need to go through at least two years of 280 training hours of training, including courses in anatomy, psychology, dermatology, beauty practice and beauty principles, and even some of them in chemistry, physics and commodities.
So, I'm probably going to meet Tony, who practiced me, and no matter how carefully described in the picture, they would still treat me like a guinea pig and make me one of his KPIs for cutting the same hairstyle for thousands of people.
Catch the fashionable barber,
Can't catch up with the fashion circle of updating iterations
Not only that, but my Tony aesthetic seems to be frozen in the last century. I've personally watched them create the same hairstyle for me and my mom with similar curls.
This may be related to the shorter development time of the overall development of China's haircut industry. Now, what we call a barbershop that can wash hair, cut hair, and perm and dye has developed for less than forty years. For a long time, this industry has been to flaunt the international as a stepping stone, the so-called fashionable hairstyles in the eyes of barbers are also from abroad, and those fashionable hairstyles can not well adapt to the aesthetic needs of the Chinese people.
The industry development that was already lagging behind the international community, and then encountering the rapid replacement of the trend, let the Tonys be confused. According to 2020 statistics, only 7.3% of merchants have been open for more than 10 years, and 81.1% of merchants have operated for less than 5 years.
Now the so-called fashion trends, mostly from the upstream fashion circle spread, in the downstream Tony has not yet learned, the trend circle has changed the direction of the wind.
By maintaining their learning ability, hairdressers can be at the forefront of fashion trends. While the industry has improved as demand for beauty salons has increased, in 2020, nearly 50% of barbers still train less than twice a year.
Such training frequencies obviously can't keep up with the speed of the fashion circle refresh. Most people are probably still stuck in the aesthetic circle of a few years ago or even the last century, and it is too difficult for him to cut a shape that only caught fire yesterday.
Mainly look at the face...
Just when I had convinced myself to boil down all the problems to "Tony can't do it," a word from a friend plunged me into deep thought.
"This parrot has a hair color, and it's too good to look at the face!"
I suddenly realized that I didn't want to review it, so let me emo for a while.
