Booksy lets you view pictures of haircuts and styles performed by hair technicians and barbers via the portfolio section of every Booksy profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Booksy also lets you review workspace photos, so you can see the inside of the shop, before booking an appointment. Reading reviews is also helpful, because they\u2019re written by actual customers.&nbsp;Reviews can give the clearest details about the professional and their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Booksy profiles should also contain written information about that stylist in regards to their level of experience or specialities that are available upon request.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082546\/booksy-reviews-cover-1200x500-1-1024x427.jpg\" alt=\"View Pictures and Read Reviews \n\" class=\"wp-image-35580\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082546\/booksy-reviews-cover-1200x500-1-1024x427.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082546\/booksy-reviews-cover-1200x500-1-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082546\/booksy-reviews-cover-1200x500-1-768x320.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082546\/booksy-reviews-cover-1200x500-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"schedule-a-consultation-session\"><\/span><strong>Schedule a Consultation<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>Session<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before committing to an appointment, check to see if you can schedule a consultation session.

Some professionals do require a small fee for a consultation session.

Save an image on your phone or tablet and bring it into the salon. But make sure it\u2019s a look that will fit your professional and social lifestyle.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remember that bringing in more than one picture is also okay. For instance, if you feel inspired by a style of bangs, as well as someone else\u2019s layers\u2014then bring in two images.&nbsp;But try to select a picture with a model who has the same kind of hair texture and facial features that you possess.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This will make sure you avoid bringing in an image of someone who is sporting a look, which may not suit you. And finding a picture of a model who shares your same hair texture and facial features will help any industry expert recreate that look. But still listen to your stylist, if they have feedback. They are the experts on recreating a look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082636\/Hair-model-1200x800-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-35588\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082636\/Hair-model-1200x800-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082636\/Hair-model-1200x800-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082636\/Hair-model-1200x800-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082636\/Hair-model-1200x800-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"give-honest-details-about-your-routine\"><\/span><strong>Give Honest Details About Your Routine&nbsp;<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to sitting in the chair of a new stylist\u2014honesty is always the best policy. In particular, make sure you\u2019re as honest as possible, when it comes to telling hair stylists or barbers about the amount of time you devote to styling your hair each day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let them know if you\u2019re someone who is pressed for time and only has about five minutes every morning to brush and apply one product. Alternatively, speak up if you have the time and energy to spend 20 minutes to an hour in the mirror, before starting your day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A new stylist or barber will be able to perform their best work, once they know a few details about your daily hair styling routine. These important details will help professionals give you a style that\u2019s easy to manage or draws the right kind of attention with careful, consistent maintenance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/cdl.booksy.com\/TbLr8LUrX7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Book now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082654\/Hair-styling-at-home-1200x800-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Give Honest Details About Your Routine \n\" class=\"wp-image-35592\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082654\/Hair-styling-at-home-1200x800-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082654\/Hair-styling-at-home-1200x800-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082654\/Hair-styling-at-home-1200x800-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082654\/Hair-styling-at-home-1200x800-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"talk-about-hair-products\"><\/span><strong>Talk About Hair Products<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Working with a new stylist or barber is just like any healthy, rewarding relationship.

Most industry experts can offer a host of great advice on choosing the right products for use at home.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some stylists and barbers may even have products for sale within the salon or barbershop. If you\u2019re honest about the specific products that you\u2019re regularly adding to your hair, this will help the stylist recommend future styles or looks, since conversations about styling products can reveal important information.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"642\" src=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082717\/Hair-styling-products-1200x752-1-1024x642.jpg\" alt=\"Talk About Hair Products\n\" class=\"wp-image-35596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082717\/Hair-styling-products-1200x752-1-1024x642.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082717\/Hair-styling-products-1200x752-1-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082717\/Hair-styling-products-1200x752-1-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/15082717\/Hair-styling-products-1200x752-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"follow-safety-and-health-rules\"><\/span><strong>Follow Safety and Health Rules<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep in mind that many salons and barbershops are still performing additional safety and health routines to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
