Hair cutting trends come and go, but some hair cutting techniques are becoming revolutionary. When we heard about the Calligraphy Cut, we were immediately intrigued. A new tool is revolutionizing hair cutting and getting the most out of straight, fine hair. The cut creates voluminous, healthy hair in no time. Read on to find out more!
What is the Calligraphy Cut?
This haircut is a cool and unique way to add texture to hair while adding body and movement. If you have fine hair, you should listen up. There's a new solution to your hair problems! The Calligraphy Cut: This is a new, special hair cutting technique where the hairdresser cuts your hair with a knife instead of trimming it with scissors. This knife, a so-called calligraph, is used to cut the hair at an angle of 21 degrees. A cut at this angle hurts the hair much less and makes it more beautiful, voluminous and stronger.
The calligraphy knife leaves a much larger cutting surface,so that the haircan absorb the products better. Remember how you cut the stems of fresh flowers because it's the same principle. They are always cut at a slight angle, which keeps them fresher for longer. With a calligraphy cut, the cut surface is very smooth, so there is little chance of split ends. Essentially, this cut seals and protects the hair.
The reason for the maximum smoothness lies in the way the technique is performed. The cut prevents split ends because the cut surface is very smooth. This can also add strength and shine. If this cut sounds too good to be true, it gets even better. Some who wear this look even report that it makes hair appear longer.
What are the benefits of this haircut technique?
One of the biggest benefits of this haircut, as previously mentioned, is the extra volume, texture, fullness and movement it gives your hair regardless of the length. Experts explain that cutting with a blade tapers and softens the ends of your hair more than a scissor cut, resulting in a lighter finish that falls effortlessly. It can also do up to 300% moreCreate volume in the hair.
Another advantage is the adaptability and versatility of this haircut. When cutting hair with a blade, each individual strand of hair is cut cleanly. This individual and gentle approach leaves the hair in a much more voluminous and lifted state. Additionally, due to its unique customization, this cut is said to last several weeks longer than other haircuts.
Where does the new cut come from?
The calligraphy knife was invented by the German hairdresser Frank Brormann. He developed the tool and presented his idea on the German equivalent of the reality TV show “Shark Tank”. And he won! Since then, technology has revolutionized the hairdressing trade. Calligraphy cuts are appearing more and more frequently in hair salons around the world. The technique is rather difficult because it requires mastering a completely new tool.
Who should try the cut?
This cut lasts about twice as long as a normal haircut. It is ideal for women and men with thin, feathery and weak hair. You benefit from the volume that the cut gives. It is also recommended for people with split ends. People with normal, healthy hair can also try this cutting technique.
