How to find a decent hairdresser?
Finding a hairdresser you can truly trust is a bit like finding the perfect pair of jeans — once you’ve got the right fit, you never want to let go. The right stylist doesn’t just make your hair look good; they make you feel confident, comfortable, and understood.
At Salon No. 100, we know that your hair is personal. That’s why choosing a decent hairdresser is about more than who’s nearby or who’s cheapest — it’s about finding someone who listens, advises, and genuinely cares about your look and lifestyle.
Where to Start Your Search
The best place to begin is with recommendations. Ask friends or family whose hair you admire — they’ll usually be happy to share their salon secrets. Word of mouth is still the most reliable way to find talented professionals.
Next, check out online reviews and social media pages. A great salon will proudly share before-and-after photos, showcase stylist expertise, and respond kindly to client feedback. On Instagram, you can get a real feel for a salon’s personality and the kind of looks they love to create.
Finally, think local. A good Solihull hairdresser will understand the trends, lifestyle, and atmosphere of the area — something that helps shape the experience from the moment you walk through the door.
What to Look For
When you step into a salon for the first time, pay attention to the atmosphere. A clean, friendly, and professional environment is a good sign that the team takes pride in their work.
Look for a consultation before any cutting begins — this shows the stylist values communication and wants to understand your goals. A decent hairdresser should ask questions about your hair’s history, your daily routine, and your future plans for colour or length.
You’ll also want to notice the little details — things like how well the staff listen, whether they explain what they’re doing, and if they offer honest advice. At Salon No. 100, our stylists are trained to balance creativity with care, making sure you always feel involved in the process.
Questions to Ask Before Booking
Before committing to a new hairdresser, it’s worth asking a few simple questions:
- What styles or techniques do you specialise in?
- How do you approach consultations?
- Which products do you use and recommend?
- How often should I come in for maintenance?
- Can I see examples of your previous work?
Their answers will tell you a lot about their professionalism and communication style. A good hairdresser will be happy to explain their approach and help you set realistic expectations.
