Comparing haircut references through everyday routines

Our small theatre group is putting together a contemporary costume, and I am collecting references for a removable wig. The director wants movement around the face, but our current reference folder contains almost nothing except front views. My concern is that we might describe the styling in a photograph instead of the haircut underneath it. The terminology question I am starting with is what is a butterfly haircut and I would welcome other useful references. I would like a reference sheet showing the outline from several angles, with short notes beside each picture. Because the costume has a noticeable collar, we need to consider where the back of the wig will sit. Once we agree on the outline, the volunteer handling the wig can discuss what adjustments are actually feasible. Does anyone have a simple checklist for choosing clear haircut references from several different angles?
