How does the cut or style flatter my face and body shape? Probably  the number one mistake that women make when choosing a new style is to  choose a style that is unflattering to their features. For example: A  swept back style would make a round face look even rounder, but a style  that softens up the facial features with a little forward movement can  make a round face appear more balanced and oval. Haircuts can also be  tailored to draw the eye to your most stunning features and to detract  it from those you’d rather hide.
· How much time and effort will I  have to put into styling each morning? In today’s hectic-paced world,  who has time to burn styling hair? Most of us need a style that is easy  to work with and requires little time primping in front of the mirror.  Even if you have a style that requires more work, it is likely that you  will bypass a majority of the care and maintenance needed for it to look  its best on most days. And that could add up to a lot of bad hair days.  Instead, choose a style that is easy to work with and compliments your  hair’s natural tendencies.
· Will this style work with my hair’s  type and texture or work against it? If your hair is limp and straight,  choosing a heavily layered style that requires a curling iron or hot  rollers every day could get exhausting. Likewise, a sleek, flat style on  extremely curly locks could take a lot of effort to maintain. So, try  to choose a style that will work with your texture. By doing this, you  can have a style that seems to go into place magically with little or no  fuss on your part.
· Will this style accommodate my lifestyle?  If you have to wear your hair up for your job or if you’re a tomboy who  loves to throw on a ball cap, you should consider this before deciding  on a hairstyle. After all, who wants to be stuck with a style that they  have to curl each and every day when their tendency is to wear it in a  pony tail? If you wear your hair up often, be sure to choose a style  that will still allow you to do this when the mood or need strikes you.
