Amidst the busy streets, I have decided to visit a salon as I need a haircut.

While taking
my cue to be called, I have observed a lot of things from my surroundings. Everyone is wearing a
mask, others bring a face shield with them, and social distancing is implemented. A new day that
sees through the normal life back then, people are all committed to have a good haircut or
hairstyle. In waiting for my turn to be accommodated, I notice that it is not the same haircut for
everyone. It could vary from one person to another depending on their respective preferences,
face shape and the way the customer wants his/her hairstyle to projects his/her personality. Not
everyone in the salon, gets a haircut, some get their nails done, get their hair permed or
rebounded, everything is just systematized that resonates to a salon – a place where enhancing
one’s physical beauty happens.

While I was into my thoughts, the hairstylist approach me and asked me how would I like
to style my hair and then I told her to give me some recommendations; she started with telling
me the different haircutting techniques that they offer depending on the customer’s preference of
style, starting with layering which she told me a method of cutting that creates an illusion of
different lengths that lay one on top of the other. She also mentioned thinning wherein it is done
to make thick styles easier to wear that is suitable for heavy hairstyles. Blunting for creating a
blocky or straight edges that initiates a dramatic façade to the customer; and lastly, the graduated
or stacked cut that pursues a bulk and weight designing of the haircut perfect for a traditional
layering that is helpful for those who have thin or fine follicles.
 At the end, I concede with doing a layering style because the hairstylist narrated to me
the things that I must considered like my hair texture, hair condition, and my current haircut. She
also told me how important it is to make sure that the hairstyling technique I will let my
hairstylist to do with hair will justify how I perceived to express myself and something that will
make me confident about my looks. As it was my turn to get my hair done, I thank my hairstylist
for guiding me to choose between the different haircutting technique that they do which serves as
my grounds for the hairstyle that I want to have. After having my hair done, I’m contented with
how it looks and planned on my mind that next appointment of me going to the salon.
