How can i find a really good Hair stylist?

Avoid Mall chain stores. They tend to hire new recruits fresh out of beauty school. The best way to find a good stylist is to ask around. Don't be afraid to stop someone on the street that has fantastic hair. Ask them where they got it done. Word of mouth is the best reference and seeing the stylists work on someone's hair is the best way to see how they work. If you liked the hair cut you previously got then go back to that stylist. If it was good but not fabulous then ask around. Also check citysearch for the best of salons. They kind of give you a starting point. Try and take pictures in when you see a new stylist. Dont' be afraid to ask for bits and pieces from several different pictures or to tell the stylist that you want this area or that area longer on your own hair. Being able to show them on your head where you want the longest layer and where you want the shortest layer also helps. If the stylist just wants to start cutting with no conversation prior then leave. They are going to cut it how they want, not how you want. Communication is the key to getting a fabulous hair cut.

Once you find a stylist that makes you happy stick with him /her. Why fix it if it is not broke ? If you want to try someone else ask all your friends who does their hair. Ask everyone around especially if you see someone with a great cut.

Good Luck
