Tell your barber how long it has been since your most recent haircut. Barbers know how long it takes for the hair to grow, so they can imagine what your hair looked like way back when. From there, you can either tell them you want it to look the same or describe how you want it to be different from last time. To give you a cut that you'll love, your barber needs to know more about you. Tell your barber where you work, what you do for fun, where you go on the weekends, how you wear your hair, whether you put the product in it every day, and anything else you think might be helpful. Essentially, you want your barber to give you a cut that will fit seamlessly into your lifestyle and reflect your personality
