Many people spend tons of money on all kinds of magazines to look to celebrities to find latest hair styles for themselves.

Then, they go to hair salons and get that beautiful celebrity hair cut only to discover that they needed some other hair style to look great like the celebrity.

If you are in pursue of a new hair style for yourself, you should answer these five basic questions:

• How much time you think you can spend in fixing your hair on a daily basis? Fixing means hair drying, hair straightening, hair curling, special conditioning, styling, etc. Be honest. If you don't have the time, don't get a high maintenance hair style.
• Do you have your hair in good condition? If not, then don't plan on doing any sort of perms, hair straightening, extensions, bleaching.
• Are you aware what type of the shape your face has? Your face shape is very important for selecting the right kind of hair style for yourself. What will look great on a square face shape might not look good on a round face.
• Does your hair stylist always make you satisfied with your hair? Does he provide you information on how to style your hair at home?
• The hair stylist plays an important role in your pursuit of great hair.
• Do you have any specific type of hair style that you like? Why do you like it? If there are only some certain features of a hair style that you like, for example, long side-swept bangs or long layers in the back, then you should tell it to your hair stylist. He may be able to add some of these features to your hair style.
