The Art Of Dry Cutting ✂️
Why Dry Cutting Works
Unlike traditional wet cutting, dry cutting allows me to see the natural fall of the hair instantly. As soon as I release a section, I can see how it lays on the head — no second guessing, no surprises. This creates a cut that looks and feels natural right away.
Another advantage is spotting areas where the hair is heavier or thicker. On dry hair, these sections are much easier to identify. I can go into those areas to add internal texture, softening bulk and creating more movement and flow throughout the style.
Dry cutting also saves valuable time ⏳. Since there’s no need to shampoo and blow-dry before the initial cut, clients can get in and out faster while still enjoying a polished, precise result. Many clients appreciate this efficiency because they don’t always have hours to spend in the chair.
Most importantly, dry cutting delivers precision ✂️. Every detail shows in its natural state, allowing for sharp lines, balanced layers, and a look that lasts for weeks — often a full month before the hair needs reshaping. While it may appear simple, this technique takes years of practice to truly master. I’ve dedicated countless hours to perfecting it, and today it’s one of the services I love most to offer my clients.
