The "big taboo" in the barbershop: don't talk nonsense in these five sentences!
Every time you step into the barber shop, do you have a feeling of anticipation and apprehension? What you look forward to is to be able to change your hairstyle and make your image look new, and what you are worried about is that you are afraid that the barber will not understand your "code" and cut a hairstyle that makes you cry and laugh. Today, let's uncover the "taboos" in the barbershop and see what you must not say!
First of all, the seemingly relaxed "just help me design it!" is definitely the number one taboo in the barbershop. Although you may want to save the hassle and effort of letting a professional barber do the work, did you know that everyone's aesthetic and style are different, and a barber may not be able to fully get your point? Once you give authority to the barber, the result is likely to be that he will cut it to his liking, and the hairstyle may not be suitable for your face shape and temperament. So, don't be lazy, think about your needs and preferences in advance, and communicate with the barber is the right way!
Next, there are those hairstyle pictures that make our hearts flutter. Many people like to take pictures found on the Internet and say to the barber, "Cut this for me!" But have you ever thought that the hairstyles in those pictures are carefully groomed and photographed, and it is likely that the same effect cannot be achieved in reality? More importantly, everyone's head and face shape are different, and the effect of the same hairstyle on different people's heads is also very different. So, don't blindly strive for perfection in the picture, and discuss the right hairstyle with a hairdresser.
Let's talk about the vague phrase "cut it a little shorter". This sentence is simply a barber's nightmare! Because the word "slightly" is so vague that everyone understands "slightly" differently. What you perceive as "slightly" may be a centimeter off, while what a barber understands as "slightly" may be three centimeters. In order to avoid such embarrassment and misunderstanding, let's try to describe our needs in specific words, such as "I want to cut my hair under my ears" or "I want the sides to be slightly shorter".
Then, we have to talk about the so-called "latest hairstyles". The fashion world is always unpredictable, and every once in a while a new hairstyle trend is introduced. But you know what? Not all trends are for you. Everyone's temperament, style is different, and the suitable hairstyle is also different. Blindly following trends is likely to make you lose your identity and individuality. Therefore, when choosing a hairstyle, you still have to consider it in combination with your actual situation and preferences to find a style that really suits you.
Finally, let's talk about hair coloring. Hair dyeing can indeed give us a new look, but it also comes with certain risks. Different scalps and hair types adapt differently to hair dyes, and if you choose a product that is not suitable for you, it is likely to cause damage to your scalp and hair. Therefore, before dyeing your hair, you must understand your scalp and hair condition, and choose the right hair dye products for you. At the same time, avoid being fooled by the barber's recommendations, and stick to your needs and preferences is the most important thing.
Having said all this, I actually want to tell you a truth: in the barbershop, what we have to do is not blindly follow the trend or let it go, but to maintain good communication with the barber and clearly express our needs and preferences. Only in this way can we cut a hairstyle that really suits us and give us a new look.
