understand the principles behind shape, movement & volume—and learn to create layered designs with control
LAYERS — Technical Cutting Class
Layers are not one haircut. They are a technique — and once you understand the principles behind it, you can create countless shapes and designs.
This class is about moving beyond copying a haircut and learning to understand why a shape works.
We’ll break down the relationship between shape, elevation, direction, movement and volume, and how changing each element changes the final result.
The goal is not to memorize one haircut. It’s to give you a system you can use behind the chair — so you can analyze a shape, adapt it to your client, and create your own designs with intention and control.
Understand the technique. Control the shape. Create your own result.
