It’s always fun mixing a razor haircut with color. Watch this haircut with razor finesse come to life with some common razor cutting techniques. In this video taken from the internet, Sergey Zaroslav, uses a Feather Styling Razor which is a straight edge haircutting razor that holds a guarded razor blade. He cuts a beautiful haircut on straight hair in the salon using both razors and shears before moving onto the color portion.
Sergey starts with the bangs using a Feather Styling Razor and contours around the face. He moves to the back to cut the ends for the desired length. Then, he addresses the top of the hair , holding the sections up and channel cutting for some texture and movement. Finally, he blow drys the hair and does some detailing with scissors and face framing. After a complete blow dry, he gives the client a pop of bright pink color around the bangs and the length of the hair. Since the color is underneath her natural hair color, you can view it with a little swipe of the hair. Cute!
Straight razor haircuts have a more lived-in look. Take care when cutting hair with a razor and always make sure you have a sharp blade to prevent snagging, drag or frizzy hair. Razor hair cutting can be done on curly hair as well.
Note: The Feather Styling Razor used to cut hair in this video is a discontinued model. The current model uses the same blades.
