Hair Cutter

The Businessman is another simple tapered haircut. The top is cut approximately 2 inches long. The rest is tapered with scissors. That’s why this is also known as The Tapered Cut.

If you have thick hair and wish to reduce its volume, try asking your stylist to thin out your hair. With a pair of thinning scissors, your stylist can cut some strands short but leave the rest long. This will allow your hair to lay flatter naturally and can tame even the thickest of locks.

Individual curl-cutting technique where the hairstylist assesses each curl and carves out the haircut piece-by-piece rather than just taking length off from the bottom, which in turn could lead to a stacked pyramid effect.

The Asymmetrical cut offers the right amount of risk and reward for those daring enough to try it. Think of it as the Rock & Roll of hairstyles. It’s called The Asymmetrical because it’s exactly that. Asymmetrical. That means your hair will be longer on one side than the other. The greater the difference in length from side to side, the bolder the cut.

The best way to find out if your potential hire understands your salon culture and mission is to ask them how they might contribute to it. Ask them about their strengths and what makes them the ideal candidate. This answer should go beyond “giving a good haircut.”

I am trained in providing standard salon services. My expertise in Thai massage techniques, nail art, and hair re-bonding has attracted many new clients to the salon I previously worked for. Since I keep updating my skills, I usually have a vast bevy of tricks to bring in more business.

Customers often come with such requests, and I try my best to cater for their preferences, in any case, however, if I know that the result of required treatment will not yield the desired effect on the client’s particular face cut, I point it out before the procedure. If they are willing, I offer an alternate solution that is suitable and closest to their initial request, in case they still want it, I comply professionally.

Customer services mean everything to me. A salon runs on the loyalty and satisfaction of its client base, and it is the prime duty of every individual working within a salon to ensure repeat business through satisfied clients.

If you ask for layered hair, you are asking for hair of varying lengths. The resulting cut allows some sections of hair to rest atop others in layered tiers. The layers can give your haircut the appearance of depth, volume, and fullness.

A taper is when your hair gradually changes from one length to another.

A fade is shorter than a taper and ends when it reaches the skin — essentially “fading” in.

Tapers and fades can be achieved with shears, or with clippers that have guards set to various lengths. Either way, watching a masterful barber artfully craft a taper or fade is a mesmerizing process to behold.

The Buzz Cut is a generic term for a short, buzzed haircut, and is also known as a military cut. There are several kinds of buzz cuts. You can ask for anything from a super short buzz cut to a longer buzz cut. To be safe, identify the length you want by its blade number. In this manner, you’ll avoid any confusion.

The Undercut is a trendy haircut in which the sides and back are disconnected from the hair on top. This means very short hair on the sides and back with little to no taper and much more length on top. The result is sharp angles, clean lines, and lots of volume. An Undercut cut can be swept, slicked, and styled in a variety of ways. One modern styling method is The Pompadour, or “James Dean,”.

Another variant on the Undercut that has seen a rise in reputation is the Quiff. We like to think of the Quiff as a fusion of a mohawk and a pompadour. In this style, the sides of the head are cut even closer to the skin.

This is a hair-cutting tool used to remove volume from hair by collapsing the cut without adding layers, Edward. It can also be used to create texture, Jen added. “I love using it on fine hair types because it means I don't have to sacrifice the fullness of the hair. A razor works great to create movement on all hair types.

Keratin, re-bonding and Extenso, all are hair straightening techniques. While keratin uses natural proteins, re-bonding and Extenso are chemical treatments. Re-bonding gives a dead straight look while Extenso generates a relatively high volume look.

Depending on your perspective, a flexible schedule can be a blessing or a curse. In the salon industry, the busiest day of the week is Saturday, not to mention, appointments can occur in the evening or be scheduled last minute, so your new stylist should be comfortable with inconsistent and/or non-traditional work hours.

Before hiring, it’s important to discuss both the salon and your potential hire’s ideal work schedules and make sure you are able to accommodate both parties’ needs.

Because I am a big fan of cutting and styling other peoples hair.
