The approach
How the Hairstyle
Adviser Works
Good questions come before a big change. These are the considerations behind our planned photo adviser.
- 01
Your facial silhouette
Think about the lines you want to frame and the features you enjoy highlighting.
- 02
Your texture & density
Consider your natural texture, the thickness of each strand, and how much hair you have.
- 03
Your styling commitment
Be realistic about the time and tools you want to use each morning.
- 04
Your salon conversation
Bring your preferences to a stylist and talk through shape, length, and upkeep.
Your consultation notebook
Make room for
what works for you.
A few preferences. A clearer conversation. Create a short note to take to your stylist.

A cut is more than a silhouette
The three pillars
of a great haircut.
Hair density & strand caliber
Fine describes the thickness of a strand. Density describes how closely your hairs grow. Discuss both with your stylist.
Your daily styling routine
Start with the mornings you actually have. Tell your stylist how you usually dry and style your hair.

Before you make the cut
A few
good questions.
How will the photo adviser work?
The planned adviser will combine a photo with your answers about your hair and routine. For now, use the consultation planner below to put your preferences into words.
Can I upload a photo here?
Photo uploads are not available on this page. You can use the consultation planner without choosing or sharing a photo.
Can a haircut change my face shape?
A haircut does not change your anatomy. Length, fringe, and volume offer different ways to frame your face. Your preferences matter, too.
What should I take to my hairstylist?
Bring reference pictures, your preferred length, and a realistic idea of your styling routine. Ask what the cut would look like with your natural texture.
Less guessing. More you.
