How to choose the right salon for your New Year’s Eve haircut

Finding a perfect hairdresser for fixing your New Year’s Eve look is no easy task. It’s a night to remember, and a small disappointment can quickly turn into drama. Think botched bangs or a completely different hairstyle than you had in mind. If you’re looking for a bulletproof recipe to change your hairstyle dramatically for the New Year’s Eve celebrations, here it is. Follow these tips to find a hair stylist who will help you make your look special.

Ask around and get recommendations

Word of mouth recommendation is the best you can get. If you see a colour or cut on a friend that you just love, ask them which salon they go to and who they see there. Why not approach a stranger if they have a fabulous hairstyle? Make sure to ask for their name – knowing who referred you will help the hair stylist understand your aesthetics and who to thank for the reference.

Take your first step

One of the safest ways to test out a hairdressing salon is trying a simple service such as a blowout. That’s where you can also check whether the salon is up to date with innovations such as appointment booking software. Hair salons use it to keep customer history records, offer loyalty programs and ensure that booking is possible 24/7 – in short, to provide an excellent service. If that have such solutions in place, it means that they care about their customers. Also, using that type of software will make it easier to book the appointment whenever you like.

Check the salon’s product

Do you like a particular brand of shampoos or hair colouring products? You can factor that in when looking for a perfect hair salon. You can check the brand’s website and go to a store locator. It will show you all the salons which use these products in your neighbourhood. 

Have a look at social media

Nothing is more telling a than a bunch of great reviews left by other people on social media. Does the hair salon have a Facebook page with the reviews option on? If you see a lot of stars, it might be a good pick. Another great platform is Yelp – that’s where customers leave detailed reviews as well. Finally, see whether the salon runs an Instagram account to get a better idea about their aesthetics and look at their creations.
