This cut is a playful collision of a pixie and a mullet-y bob, soft, sculpted, and tailored to enhance my client’s natural curl pattern while keeping an edge.

I began with a very wet canvas, allowing me to take clean sections without causing breakage or disrupting her curl integrity. Working with vertical sectioning from the crown down, I used my Feather Styling Razor with Standard Blades in a soft stroking motion to carve the shape. Through the back, I worked in small, rounded sections to prevent the curls from forming a triangle silhouette. At the nape, I transitioned into concave layers, keeping just enough length to gently hug the neck. Instead of slide cutting, I opted for feathering motions in each section. This gave me more control over length while preserving the integrity and bounce of her natural texture.

For the fringe and face frame, I took diagonal-back sections starting from the drop-off at the crown. Using my comb flat to the head to find that starting point, I feathered short to long, over-directing into my previous guide to maintain flow. Sideburns were left slightly longer for softness while still revealing the ears. This created longer, face-framing pieces at the nape and around the cheeks, balanced with a cropped crown full of airy texture. This is a cut that moves, grows in beautifully, and lets the client’s natural texture shine without feeling heavy or overworked.
