What always begins a great haircut?

  1. A great consultation

  2. A sharp pair of scissors

  3. Washing the hair

  4. Deciding the haircut length

The correct answer is: A great consultation

A great consultation is the most important part of a great haircut because it allows the stylist to understand the desired outcome and any limitations. Option B, a sharp pair of scissors, may contribute to a great haircut but it is not the most important factor. Option C, washing the hair, is just one step in the process and does not necessarily determine the success of the haircut. Option D, deciding the haircut length, is also important but it is only a small part of the overall consultation process. A great consultation sets the foundation for a successful and satisfying haircut experience.
