Concept Overview & Aesthetic Appeal

Inspired by iconic 1990s runway volume, this cut features long, blended layers designed to hold bouncy, cascading blowout curves. The rounded, outward-swooping shapes draw attention to the eyes and collarbones, balancing round cheeks.

Step-by-Step Execution & Cutting Guide

  • Cut an even, U-shaped perimeter resting below the shoulder blades.

  • Create tiered layers starting at the collarbone, blending smoothly down through the length.

  • Layer the crown area at 135 degrees to ensure maximum root lift and bounce during styling.

  • Slide-cut face-framing angles starting just below the chin, blending them into the lower layers.

  • Soften all transitions with thinning shears to ensure smooth blending.
