Hair style pictures can be a great tool for anyone interested in a new style but who is unsure of exactly what they are looking for. Experienced stylists can recreate even elaborate dos from different photographs, or they can combine several looks into one new style perfect for your face shape, hair characteristics, and lifestyle.

Finding Hair Style Pictures

There are several places to find suitable pictures of hair styles, including:

  • Online Style Galleries: Either real or virtual pictures.
  • Hair Style Magazines: General and ethnic magazines are available.
  • Regular Magazines: Any picture of a great hair style – even from an advertisement – can be used.
  • Photos of Friends and Family: Always get permission to show their picture to your stylist.
  • Hair Style Books: Usually available in salons.
  • Bridal, Prom, and Specialty Magazines: Many specialty publications feature hair style galleries.

Not every picture is useable, however. If you print photographs from a website or digital camera, be sure that your printer can produce a high-quality image with sufficient detail for the stylist to determine if there are highlights, layers, or other intricate features to the do. Photos should be large enough to show those details clearly, and using several photos from different angles can help the stylist emulate the cut properly. Very dark photos are typically not usable, nor are any blurry or partially obscured photos.

Choosing a Style from Pictures

You may examine hundreds of hair style pictures before finding the perfect look, but it is important to remember that no matter how great it is in the picture, it won’t look the same on you (unless, of course, it’s your picture!). While you can get general ideas and inspiration from photographs, be sure to take your stylist’s recommendations into consideration before deciding on a new look: different face shapes, skin tones, and hair textures all affect the final look of a hair style. The best tactic is to select several hair style pictures of similar looks and discuss which aspects of each you like the most so your stylist can combine them into a stunning style just for you.
