If you've had the same hairstyle for a long time and you're ready for a change, it's time to schedule an appointment with a professional stylist who can complete a full transformation for you. Before you head over to the salon, you'll need to think about all the different changes you'd like to make. You may want a new color, cut, and an entirely different style.
Choose the Perfect Cut
If your hair hasn't been cut in a long time, you'll likely need to have it trimmed to get rid of any dead ends. Once you get rid of the dead ends, your hair will look much healthier. If you're trying to keep your hair long, you might be interested in just getting a trim. However, there are other options. For example, you could let the stylist add layers to your hair. Layers often make the hair look more voluminous and are great to have when you want to style your own hair at home. You might even be willing to go for a shorter look because you're tired of having so much hair on your head.
Start looking online to get some ideas on a specific cut you'd like to have. It helps to have some pictures available for the stylist to look at before he or she begins working on your hair at the salon.
Pick Out Your Hair Color
In addition to choosing the perfect cut, you may want to change the look of your hair by selecting a new color. There are tons of colors to choose from, including traditional colors of blonde, brown, black, and red as well as bright and bold shades of blue, pink, green, and even purple. You could have your hair dyed the same color from your roots to your ends or you could choose to go for something a bit subtler, such as a balayage or partial highlights. If you're looking to go from a naturally dark color to a much lighter color, the stylist may need to use bleach and a toner to lighten it to the perfect shade.
Finish With the Perfect Style
Once your hair is cut and colored, it's time to have it styled as the finishing touch to your new look. Rather than leaving the salon with wet hair and styling it on your own, consider having your stylist perform a full hair blow drying treatment. After shampooing and conditioning your hair, the stylist can use specific tools to give you a blowout that leaves your hair looking soft, smooth, full, and voluminous. Most stylists start with a volumizing spray and then begin blowing out sections of the hair using a blow dryer with a thermal brush that leaves hair looking bouncy and beautiful.
Treat yourself to a hair transformation. Get those dead ends trimmed, choose a cut that works best for you, decide on a new color, and then have the stylist complete your new look with the perfect blowout.

Do you remember the last time you had your hair professionally done? About a year ago, I realized that I needed to have a little help with my look, so I started checking out different spas and salons in the area. I was able to find an amazing place that specialized in hairstyles for men, and so I made an appointment and then headed in. It was really incredible to see how much of a difference they were able to make, and within no time, I felt like I looked a ton better. This blog is all about choosing a better salon to get a personal makeover.
