Question for hairdressers.

[oncemoreuntothebeachdearfriends]

I've recently moved, & need a new hairdresser.
I soon won't need one because I'm tearing my hair out in frustration.

I asked on the local FB page, & got >10 recommendations. I also did a search for people near me. I prefer either a mobile HD or a home salon,not a multi-chair salon.
I've contacted most of them, & am underwhelmed with the responses - those few that I have received !

I've e-mailed, & some have actually said they don't look at their e-mail very often, & have given various reasons why they can't take on new clients. Fair enough, but why
a) list your e-mail if you don't look at it ?
b) advertise if you don't need any more clients/money ?

I've sent texts that have not been answered.
Mobile signal is terrible where I live, so I don't call as the chances are they won't get through if they call back (unlikely though that seems).

If you're a HD, what's the best way to contact you?

When I move anywhere new I spend the best part of a year picking my next hairdresser. It's important! I walk in or phone to get appointments and try them all out. I need a balance of good cutting, decent colour skills and minimal chit chat.

Try Instagram

not a hairdresser but i contact hair and beauty people on instagram
and facebook. Some use booking apps like Fresha

Have you thought about learning to cut your own hair? There are some fantastic YouTube vids
