Frequently asked
What's a good short caption for a new haircut?
Three words is plenty: 'fresh cut, who dis', 'new hair, hi', or 'reset complete'. Short captions read better on phones and don't compete with the photo.
Should I tag my stylist in the caption?
Yes — always. It costs you nothing, your stylist gets exposure, and the algorithm rewards posts that tag active accounts. Drop them in the first line of the caption so they appear above the 'more' fold.
Are funny haircut captions cringe?
Only when they try too hard. The best ones are observational ('I asked for a trim, she gave me a personality'). Avoid hair puns — your audience has heard them all.
