Stepping into the street after having a haircut and style, the confidence should be oozing from you. Getting a haircut can make you feel happy and refreshed, but there's more to it than just feeling good at first. The best hairdressers use time-honed skills to deliver results that last.

Before we delve into what makes a great haircut, you must know how to recognise a bad haircut. Have you ever left a hair salon feeling unhappy with the result? A bad haircut is bad in two ways. It makes you look bad and you paid for it.

It stings. But your first impression is not the only sign of a bad haircut – there are other tell-tale signs:

·        It’s not what you asked for

·        Feels uneven to the touch

·        Poorly blended layers

·        Crooked or uneven fringe

·        You can’t replicate the look at home

·        It needs lots of hair product to look ok

·        Excessive thinning or texturising

·        It just doesn’t look right

Clear signs your haircut is amazing

Hair styling is more than just a one-time thing. Creating a style that lasts is the goal. This applies to the first day and any future appointments, such as a haircut or a new hair colour.

We want our clients to feel great after leaving our hair salon in Christchurch. The Corkin and Friends team is dedicated to helping them look and feel amazing. We’re all about great haircuts, and these are the signs you’ll know you’ve made the right choice:

A haircut to suit your lifestyle

A good haircut should fit your lifestyle, which is more important than how it looks. High-maintenance hairstyles require commitment. Our hairstylists at Corkin and Friends consider your lifestyle when creating your hairstyle. We even offer late-night appointments in Christchurch to accommodate your schedule.

A haircut to celebrate your uniqueness

The joy in hairdressing is how a professional haircut enhances the clients’ features and brings out the best in them. Each face shape has its unique features and proportions, and a good haircut balances and enhances these features. Certain styles may work better with certain textures, while others may require more maintenance or styling to achieve the desired look. Your Corkin and Friends hairstylist sees your beauty and celebrates it.
 

A hairstyle that’s easy to maintain

Corkin and Friends hairstylists have a multitude of qualifications and between us decades of hair experience. We help our clients look great.

Our styles are easy to maintain at home. Even if our clients don't know how to do it, they can still keep their look. We're proud of that.

A style with no awkward growth stages

How many times have you had a haircut and then spent the next few months saying, ‘I’m due a cut’ or ‘I’m growing it out’? Your hairstyle is more than a one-day event – it’s got to make you feel fabulous for weeks! If your haircut grows out evenly and doesn’t look awkward between cuts, it’s a success.

The compliments keep coming

Healthy, well-cut hair is noticeable and enviable! Good haircuts make you feel good and get compliments. Keep feeling confident with salon-fresh hair.
