I would definately take a picture! The barbers are trained to identify the best way to make your hair look the way you want it to, either by verbal description or by pictures. In fact there is less room for error when using pictures, as when communicating verbally there can be a lot of words that we use as (such as razor cut, shaved, buzzed, layered...heck even short) that can be misunderstood. For example, short can be a matter of opinion and one person's idea of short can be inches off compared to another person's.



I see no problem in taking in pictures, most places usually have hair style/cut books on hand to help customers convey exactly the cut and style they want. This is that common. By taking in your own pictures, this would save time and you can be guaranteed to find the specific pictures of the exact style you want. I would recommend good clear pictures and possibly some pictures showing as much of the style as possible, including the top, front and side...if you can manage to find a separate picture of the back as well that would be perfect. I do this to my hair stylist all of the time. In fact if I find pictures of styles similar to my desired style, but they have something about them I don't want...I take those pictures along too, so I can be specific about the things I don't want as well!



Yes, the barbers use shavers and razors and hair cutting shears/scissors...all of that! They don't just shave heads like in the military! They have to cut, and fade hair all of the time along with using other tools.



Don't forget, if you like the results of the cut...ask the barber what to ask for specifically next time, so that it can be done easily in the future. Knowing what to call what you want done is really helpful...then you won't need to carry a picture(s) and any barber you visit (or hair stylist at a salon) can do it for you!

I am a stylist, and pictures are always helpful. When you consult with your barber, ask him/her if this style is attainable on your hair first. Texture, color, length, all play in to this. Many girls bring pics of jessica simpson, and it's just not going to happen... hehe!! If you go to a good barber, they should do scissor cuts. Many barbers are in and out type buzz cut factories. Think about going to a hair salon that specializes in men and women, where stylists are used to creative scissor cutting, not just one quick cut all day long.......



I style many men, and very rare do I use a buzzer. These men go to the barber. The men that come to me, enjoy a personalized cut where I consult, take time, and they walk out with a cut that nobody else has. Not like a 1, 1 1/2, 2, and 3 1/2 clip fade like the rest of mankind. Good luck! Hope this helps

why not? in that way, the barber could have the best picture on how you want your hair done rather than just talking. it could also lessen misinterpretations.

For a new style, it is advisable to take a picture. Barbers should explain to you whether or not it can be done,also be aware, the barber will try to change your mind, usually if they can not style it the way you want. No, they use other implements, e.g. scissors. You have to know what blade to use, as in No. 1 or 2 etc.

Yes...do take a picture...and if your worried about a barber not having the skill to cut it the style your wanting then go to a cosmotologist.
