We take haircutting very seriously. When customers come to us, whether they have had their hair cut here or some place else, we find out what part of their hair is bothering them. Invariably, we hear the same things over and over. This has helped us to hone our craft.
Did you know that some haircuts last longer then others? It’s true, not because the hair grows any faster or slower, but because some haircuts maintain their shape instead of growing out of shape.
Let’s look at this haircut, the fade. Notice the back hairline is cut to the natural growth of the hair, allowing it to grow out more naturally -- not a cut in, or false hairline that will only look good for a few days. Look at the hair behind the ear. This area tends to bulk up, so the hair is cut closer to allow for growth. Hair on the temples can be left slightly fuller; that hair will lay back and blend. Bangs grow out better if layered and left softer at the bottom, not cut bluntly.
Haircutting is an art. The rules are flexible, styles change, but growth direction and gravity stay the same. If you feel that your hair could look and feel better, the staff at White Oak Barber Shop would like to help. Let’s talk.
