WHY GOING TO THE HAIR SALON OR BARBER CAN HELP YOUR MENTAL HEALTH

It’s a common saying that you're hairstylist or barber doubles as your unofficial therapist, and it’s said because it’s true! There’s something incredibly therapeutic about talking to a near-stranger while getting your hair done, and it’s highly beneficial to your mental health too. According to Fashion Sundays with Grace, 46% of hairdressers and barbers professionals find themselves critical to their clients’ mental health. Going to the hair studio affects your emotional wellbeing below.

IF YOU LOOK GOOD, YOU FEEL GOOD

Nothing takes the pressure off of your shoulders more than feeling confident in the way you look. A new hairstyle or a touch-up on hair colour can genuinely do you a world of good. You will feel like a million bucks after seeing your new hair. Say you’ve got a big meeting coming up that you’re stressing yourself about unconsciously. Knowing you have your hair done won’t dissolve those worries, but it will boost your confidence almost instantly. If you’re feeling more confident, you’re going to go into that stressful situation with a more positive attitude.

THERE’S A SENSE OF COMMUNITY

Hair salons and barbers are infamous for their laid-back, warm and positive feeling. You walk in, and there is instantly a sense of togetherness, so it’s hard to stay blue when you’ve got all of those friendly faces around you! Surprisingly, loneliness is one of the most significant mental health concerns we face in the modern age. Just because we are all endlessly connected through the wonders of the internet doesn’t mean we’re not all getting hit with that wave of loneliness from time to time. Going to the hairdressers or barbers can be a momentary act of relief from that loneliness, no matter how brief it may be. It gives you a chance to break away from your routine and talk to people that you wouldn’t ordinarily end up talking to at work. You might be able to relieve some stress off your shoulders by talking to your stylist or barber about what’s on your mind. Don’t feel awkward about it, they’ve heard it all before.

TAKE A BREAK FROM DAILY STRESS

If you’ve got a lot on your plate – work, kids, a nagging partner – going to the hairstylist or barber can be a momentary stress relief for you. It gets you out of the demanding cycle you’re in for a short period and makes it so you can take a bit of time for yourself. Knowing that you will look great after visiting the hair salon or barber is just the cherry on top.

Looking good and feeling good.
