WHAT IS THE EARLIEST I SHOULD GET MY HAIR CUT BEFORE AN EVENT? ASK THE EXPERT

You have a special event you are going to. Your presentation means everything. There are some barbershops which recommend three to five days prior to your event, but I recommend 24 hours before.

You want your haircut to be fresh and sharp for photos, first impressions, and to stand out above the rest. “Having a well manicured haircut makes you feel better. When you look good, you feel good” says master barber Harold Ray McDonald Sr. grooming salon for men at Harold The Barber, who is responsible for keeping celebrity clients who are fashion trend setters in their own industries.

Attending to your hair 24 hours before your event allows you to elimimate any problems, which occur to be corrected before your event.

First impressions are lasting impressions. Set your appointment early to terminate any possible problems with scheduling.

If you’re after a specific cut or style, bring a photo with you to show your stylist to use as inspiration.
