You’ve just set up an appointment with a black hair salon in Houston. Now what? Here are a few things you’ll need to know before you turn up for your appointment:
Tenderheaded or not?
This a term used to describe someone with an incredibly sensitive scalp, says Gurl. If this is you, then detangling and tugging on your hair can be an exercise in torture. Your scalp is so sensitive your stylist will need to move forward with extreme care and caution and that’s going to mean things could take ten times longer.
Expect to spend a lot of time
Weaves and braids along with other ways to get your done could take a long, long time—like a full 8 hours. That’s almost an entire day at the office. Still, if you want a killer hairstyle, you should be willing to go through 8-hours of sitting in a chair in a black hair salon in Houston.
Skip over the pain and discomfort
If your hairstylist handles your hair in a way that’s painful, then you might want to inform your stylist so she can make the necessary adjustments. Calling attention to these things can help improve the way your stylist handles your hair. If the experience doesn’t improve, you might want to go for help elsewhere.
Watch out for signs of inexperience
Working with tools can be a bit of a frightening experience. You want to make sure you come to no harm. If you see your stylist wielding a flat iron, for instance, and it’s obvious that she isn’t as experienced and skilled in using it, then request for a different stylist or look for another salon, one that could accommodate your needs better with a trained and knowledgeable staff.
Look for focus
A lot of things could go wrong when your stylist isn’t paying attention while she’s cutting or hot-ironing your hair. Look for staff who are focused and dedicated instead.
