If you prefer to let your hair dry naturally, include that preference when comparing barbers near Barangaroo or elsewhere in Sydney CBD. A photograph finished with careful blow drying may require a routine you do not want to follow. Ask how the intended appearance changes without that stage.

What to discuss with your barber

The answer should distinguish the achievable everyday finish from the more deliberately styled example. Neither has to be described as better. You are deciding what suits your own habits. Ask which small action, if any, would make the biggest difference while the hair is still damp. Specific advice about your chosen routine is a more useful selection criterion than a general promise that any haircut will be effortless.
