Stylists Dana Caschetta and Julia Cross walk us through how to cut and style with techniques that create movement, softness, and fullness. They are working with Eufora Hero for Men styling products. Photographer Hilary Wakamatsu captured this how-to beautifully.
CUT
- Start with a center mohawk section from the front hairline to drop crown. Project the hair straight up and cut parallel to the floor 3-4”
- Zone 1 (top of head, recession to recession around parietal ridge) Take vertical sections, beginning on front right side. Project hair straight up, angle fingers down at 45°, the mohawk section is your guide. Repeat for left side.
- Zone 2 (Parietal ridge to top of ear) Starting on the right side, take vertical sections, project them straight out and cut parallel to the wall, using the bottom of Zone 1 as your guide.
- Zones 3 & 4 (top of ear to nape) Create a taper in remaining hair using scissor over comb technique, blending to Zone 2.
- Comb fringe forward and cut 1” above eyebrow.
- Using a straight razor, Sculpture cut through the parietal ridge to collapse and create movement.
- Use the tip of the razor to add texture to the top.
- Detail the perimeter.
STYLE
- Apply a small amount of Eufora Hero for Men Styling Mud to damp hair.
- Blow dry with fingers or a Denman brush to create lift and encourage direction.
- Work more Styling Mud through dry hair to add separation and enhance texture.
