Why Clean Hair Matters for Your Barbershop Appointment
At Lather and Fade, we take pride in giving you the best haircut, style, or grooming experience possible. But did you know that coming to your appointment with clean hair plays a big role in how well we can do our job? Here’s why arriving with freshly washed hair is essential for a great outcome and a smooth barbershop experience.
1. Helps Us See Your Hair’s Natural State
Clean hair gives us an accurate starting point to work from. When your hair is free from excess oils, styling products, or buildup, we can assess its natural texture, growth patterns, and movement more effectively. This is crucial for creating precise fades, clean lines, and hairstyles that suit your individual look.
2. Ensures Better Haircuts and Styling
Unwashed hair can make it harder for clippers, scissors, and combs to glide smoothly through your hair, which could affect the precision of your cut. Clean hair allows us to work seamlessly and deliver the sharp results you’ve come to expect from Lather and Fade.
3. Improves Product Application
If you’re getting a twist, braiding, or hot towel shave, starting with clean hair ensures that any products we apply—like gels, pomades, or creams—work as intended. Hair that’s free of buildup absorbs products better, leaving you with a polished and lasting finish.
4. Maintains Hygiene for Everyone
Barbershop tools, such as clippers and scissors, are meticulously sanitised after every use to ensure a hygienic experience. Coming to your appointment with clean hair helps us maintain that standard of cleanliness. It’s a small effort on your part that contributes to a pleasant and sanitary environment for everyone.
5. Saves Time During Your Appointment
If your hair isn’t clean, we may need to wash it before starting your service, which can cut into the time we’ve set aside for your cut or style. By arriving with freshly washed hair, you ensure that every minute of your appointment is spent focusing on the final look.
How to Prepare for Your Appointment
• Wash your hair the same day if possible, using a gentle shampoo that suits your hair type.
• Avoid heavy products like wax or gels after washing if you’re coming in for a haircut or style.
• If you’re unsure about your hair prep, feel free to give us a call or ask us for advice during your visit!
At Lather and Fade, we’re committed to delivering top-notch grooming services while ensuring a comfortable and welcoming experience. By arriving with clean hair, you help us work at our best, so we can help you look and feel your best.
