How do you find a good hairstylist?
First, pull up a list of nearby hairstylists on Thumbtack, and read their profiles to get an understanding of what they specialize in — hair coloring, cutting, extensions, wedding hairstyles, etc. Then, start searching for stylists who have high ratings and customer reviews. You should also spend some time looking at photos that showcase their work. That way, you can determine if a stylist has the experience and skills needed to achieve the look you want.
When you’ve identified at least three hairstylists you like, ask them for a cost estimate and make sure they have the proper credentials.
How do you hire a hairstylist?
After you find a few hairstylists you’re interested in, you need to decide who to hire. To figure this out, ask yourself these questions when evaluating each candidate:
Does the hairstylist have mostly positive customer reviews and high ratings?
Is the hairstylist charging prices that are reasonable and within my budget?
Does this person specialize in my hair type and texture?
Can the hairstylist achieve the look I want?
Does the hairstylist have the proper training?
Can the hairstylist come to me (i.e., are they a mobile hairstylist?), or do I need to go to their place of business?
