Make a list of things you like best about yourself- everything from a sense of humour to your great legs of the fact that you’re good with animals or kind to old ladies. Be honest, and generous- it’s really important that you should recognize your good points.
Now write down everything you like about your hair and everything nice anyone has every said about it.
Now list what you don’t like about it, i.e. the colour, the way it frizzes up when you’re exercising, or that you need to wash it every day and hate the tyranny of it.
Think of the last time you were happy with your hair and try to remember why, was it its length, colour, or its shape? Was it also that you were on holiday, or in love, or healthy and felt fit? Was it the shampoo you were using? Think of all the factors that contribute to feeling good about your hair as well as about yourself.
Collect pictures of styles you like, these will give your hairdresser an idea of what you’re after, and he’ll soon be able to tell you whether that style is right for your hair.
Be realistic. The style that will give you confidence is the one that suits your hair type. If you have fine flyaway hair its best not to go for a pre-Raphaelite look. And a style that suits your hair will be one that you can manage too.
Be patient, you might not get the style of your dreams first or second time round. Both you and your hairdresser have to work with your hair- its length may not be quite right at first, or you might want to change the colour.
