Pre-haircut prep

Before your haircut appointment

Most haircut regret comes from indecision in the chair. Spending ten minutes previewing the cut at home before the appointment gives you a clearer brief and a calmer result.

Use RegretCam to preview two haircut directions, narrow the decision, and walk into the appointment with a confident reference.

How to test it

  1. Preview two haircut directions the night before.
  2. Pick the safer one as your first ask.
  3. Save the bolder version in case you change your mind.
  4. Write a one-line brief: length, fringe, and shape.

Decision checks

  • Do you know the length you want?
  • Do you know the fringe and face framing?
  • Do you know whether beard or stubble fits the new cut?

FAQ

How early should I decide on a haircut?

A day or two before the appointment is usually enough to preview and write a brief without rushing.

What should I bring to the haircut appointment?

One strong preview reference and a one-line brief beat a folder of unrelated photos.

Should I ask friends before the appointment?

Yes, but ask a small private group with two clean options rather than crowdsourcing on social media.
