Communication is a process of transferring information from one entity to another. Communication processes are sign-mediated interactions between at least two agents which share a repertoire of signs andsemiotic rules. Communication is commonly defined as "the imparting or interchange of thoughts, opinions, or information by speech, writing, or signs". Although there is such a thing as one-way communication, communication can be perceived better as a two-way process in which there is an exchange and progression of thoughts, feelings or ideas (energy) towards a mutually accepted goal or direction (information).

When I worked in Iowa, my boss had a sign on her station that said, "I'm a hair dresser, not a magician." It's very true. I'm also not a mind reader unfortunately, and I don't know anyone who is. I try to make everyone look their very best before leaving the salon, but sometimes what I see and picture is not the same that's in your mind.

I have to admit, though, the people that come in and say "Do what you think looks best" are probably my happiest guests overall. I take into consideration time spent on the hair, hair texture, upkeep, face shape, lifestyle, career, body shape, bone structure, and where the hair is currently at. You should take these things into consideration as well when looking for a new style and/or haircolor. Upkeep and styling time are 2 of the biggest things that people underestimate.

Short hair usually means a visit to the salon every 4-6 weeks. Medium hair is usually 6 weeks. Longer hair is 6-8.

All over color is anywhere from 3-7 weeks depending of growth rate of your hair. Foils are usually 6-8 weeks. And depending on the difference between your natural color and the haircolor chosen, the regrowth may be more/less noticeable.


So...if you want that picture that's in your head...bring along a photo to your next haircut to communicate more efficiently! Or if you'd rather just GO for it, then tell me!

~ Also, I'm doing a contest for this Holiday season. Send me your most memorable Holiday memory before December 5th and I will have a little extra "stocking stuffer" for you!
