As the title goes, what is your usual request to the hairdresser? Do you have a specific style you ask for? Or do you keep a set of images so that you can show them what you want?

I have two strategies for barbers, one is to bring in photos. I've been told I look like Seth Rogen, so I looked through a bunch of his photos to find a haircut I liked. That way I had a decent idea what I'd look like with that haircut.

The second is to never switch barbers. It's nice to have someone who recognizes my preferences on the whole experience.

    I have been going to the same barber for 7 years. I have only gotten cut once or twice by someone else I think, which was when I moved away for about 6 months for an internship, regretted it greatly. Stopped doing that, and just scheduled cuts when I visited back.

    I couldn't tell you exactly what my haircut is. He knows it. I think it is a 3 or 4 on the back, 2 or 3 on the sides, and shorten the front/top.
