Most
people choose their new hair style by looking at a
picture of a hair style or browsing hair style photos.
This can be a great way to find the perfect look, but
there are some guidelines that you should keep in mind
when looking at pictures of hair styles. Doing so can
help you avoid hair disasters and guarantee that you
come out looking like your chosen hairstyle picture.
You can find pictures of hair styles in style books
and portfolios found at most salons, in fashion
magazines, and in online hair style photo galleries.
All of these ways can give you numerous ideas and a
picture of hair style that you can carry with you to
discuss your new style with your beautician. By seeing
a picture of hair style, both you and your stylist can
have a realistic expectation of what your new style
will look like and how to achieve it.
Have you ever found the perfect hairstyle picture only
to come out of the salon looking nothing like the
woman in the picture? Most blame it on their stylist.
While part of the blame can be put on the stylist for
not pointing out your picture of hair style blunder,
most often the blame lies with choosing the wrong
hairstyle picture to compliment your face shape and
hair texture.
A picture of hair style is a representation of what
the woman in the hair style photo looks like with a
particular style. You can not realistically expect to
look like the picture of a hair style because you are
not that woman; your hair and structure are different.
But you can selectively choose your pictures of hair
styles and eliminate the ones that would be disastrous
for you by following a few pointers.
1. When browsing through pictures of hair styles, be
sure to pay extra attention to the type and texture of
hair that the lady in the hairstyle picture has. Is
her hair coarse, thin, wavy, or straight? Try to find
pictures of hair styles with hair types that closely
resemble your own. Keep in mind that a picture of a
hair style may look great with a particular model
because she has thick and naturally curly hair, but
the same hair style may not look so great on someone
with thin, limp hair.
2. Often, pictures of hair styles are taken of models
with perfect bone structures. It is very rare that you
find a picture of hair style with a model trying to
conceal a too-high hair line, prominent nose or
under-developed chin. If you have features that you
wish to highlight or diminish, pay special attention
to the style in the picture of hair style. Would the
style in the picture of hair style compliment your
features or take away from them?
3. Use an interactive online photo gallery. You can
upload your photo and use it to test how you might
look with lots of different hair style photos. This is
a great way to "try before you buy" to avoid
expensive mistakes when you go to the salon. For a

Once you find a few hair style photos that you think
are perfect for you, ask your stylist for her opinion
on your chosen pictures of hair styles. He or she will
be able to tell you without a doubt whether or not
your selected hair style will be picture perfect for
you.
