How to find a reputable hairdresser near you

There's a lot to think about when finding a new hairdresser - cost, location, hours, and of course, reputation. You want someone who can give you a great haircut, but you also don't want to spend a fortune. So how do you find the best hairdresser near you?

Here are a few tips to help you narrow down your search and find the perfect stylist for your needs.

Do your research - ask friends and family for recommendations, or search online reviews

The first step in finding a hairdresser near you is to ask around for recommendations. Family and friends are a great resource - they may have had a great experience with a local hairdresser and can point you in the right direction. If not, search "hairdresser near me" or "hairdresser + my city" in Google and see what comes up.

If you're not sure where to start, or you want to get more than one opinion, try searching online for reviews. Sites like Yelp or Google Reviews can be a great way to get an idea of what other people think of a particular hairdresser. Keep in mind that not all online reviews are 100% truthful, but they can still be a helpful starting point.

Once you've found a few hairdressers that interest you, take the time to check out their portfolios. Check out the salon's website or social media pages to get a sense of their style. Most reputable stylists will have an online portfolio or Instagram account where they showcase their work. This can be a great way to get a feel for their style and see if it's a good fit for you.

Make a list of potential hairdressers and book consultations with them

Once you've narrowed down your search, the next step is to schedule a consultation with each of the hairdressers on your list. This is a great opportunity to ask questions, get feedback on your hair, and see if you click with the stylist.

Don't forget to ask about pricing, too - you want to make sure you're comfortable with the cost of their services before you book an appointment.

After your consultations, you should have a good idea of which hairdresser is the best fit for you.

Ask questions about their experience, what services they offer, and what products they use

During the consultation, it's important to ask the stylist plenty of questions. This is your chance to get to know them, their experience, and what services they offer. You'll also want to find out about the products they use - some hairdressers prefer to use specific brands, which may not be right for you.

Make sure you feel comfortable with the stylist and their approach to hair.

Last but not least, you want to make sure you feel comfortable with the stylist. They should be friendly, open to feedback, and willing to work with you to achieve the look you want. If you don't feel like they're a good fit, it's ok to move on.

Get a feel for the salon - is it clean and organized, or does it look like it needs a makeover?

Take a good look at the salon before your appointment. Is it clean and organized, or does it look like it needs a makeover? This can be a good indicator of the level of care the stylists take with their work.

If everything looks good, go ahead and book your appointment - you may have found your new go-to hairdresser!

Go with your gut instinct - if something doesn't feel right, go elsewhere

If you get a bad feeling about a salon or the stylist, go with your gut instinct and move on. You don't want to go to a hairdresser who makes you uncomfortable, so if something doesn't feel right, it's best to find someone else.

Women's Haircut: Evening Updo

Angela was so lovely and did an excellent job with my hair. I’m very happy with my wedding guest up do. If I was local to the area I would have her do my hair again in a heartbeat!

Women's Haircut: Blow-Dry (Long Hair), Deep Conditioning Treatment, Women's Hair Wash

Absolutely brilliant — I’m so pleased with my hair! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Shippe was so lovely and did an excellent job with my hair! I wanted a deep condition and blowout for my engagement party, and she came that morning and gave me exactly what I wanted. My hair was left feeling so, so soft, healthy and incredibly glossy, and the loose curls she did stayed for a whole week afterwards! She used really nice products, including Kérastase and an organic shampoo, and gave my hair a lovely deep condition for around 20 minutes before doing a beautiful blow-dried loose curl style, exactly as I had asked for. She also used a lovely serum afterwards and told me where I could buy the products, which was really helpful. She even gave my hair a little trim at the front to frame my face properly, completely free of charge, which was so kind of her. ❤️ She offered to do my mother-in-law’s hair too, but unfortunately we ran out of time. She was also really attentive and considerate throughout the whole appointment — checking the water temperature, being careful not to make a mess, and bringing lots of appropriate tools and everything she needed to do the job properly. I got everything I wanted and my hair was left looking and feeling amazing. She was brilliant, and I would absolutely book her again. I was so happy with my hair for my engagement party and would definitely recommend her!

Women's Haircut: Simple Haircut + Blow-dry (Short or Mid-length Hair)

Absolutely love my hair! Sylvia was lovely from start to finish. We were chatting the whole time and she made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. I went from hair past my shoulders to a short bob, so it was a big change, but Sylvia listened to exactly what I wanted and absolutely nailed it. The length and shape are perfect and my hair feels so fresh, light and healthy. I honestly couldn't be happier with it. Thank you so much, Sylvia! ❤️✂️ I would definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again.
