Always gotta be careful but if you are that often let you do crazy stuff. I bought a for parts Seagate hard drive on eBay and RMAed it. Seagate even sent me a new drive before I sent my old in because I told them it was a production environment that can't take much downtime.

Instead of taking a selfie, I ask the barber/stylist to take the photos with my own phone. I figure they'll do a better job getting the right angles than I will.

Of course, this won't prevent a bad stylist from messing up your hair. But it can help a good one know what you want.

The tip along this theme that I think has value is to consider how important something is by how long it's effects will be felt: 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 1 year or 1 decade.

They are all very different - but some important stuff will still have an impact in the 1 year or less categories.

SO I have done this. I had photos of the front, back, sides, pulled back to show the different layers and angles etc like 15 photos. Printed them out (before ipads and the like were a viable option) handed them over and said "make me now, look like me then" and they messed it up so bad, that I told her to just pixie cut it and I'll start all over.
I'm sure there are stylists who would have done a great job, but the salon I went to...terrible I never went back there .
