Before a headshot, decide whether the image should show your usual stubble or a clean-shaven appearance. The barber can help define the grooming work, but the desired identity in the photograph is your choice.
What to discuss
Show the facial-hair outline you want and discuss the sideburn connection with the haircut. A close crop of another person’s face may not show the full balance you prefer. Check the ordinary front and profile views before deciding what to remove.
Plan your appointment
Explain the timing of the photo session and any usual skin sensitivities. Do not assume the service guarantees a particular skin appearance on camera. Standalone facial shaving is AUD60, and the Signature Grooming course includes haircut and shaving. Confirm which appointment matches the work you want and allow time to understand the final finish.
