The Vidal Sassoon 5 point cut is one of Sassoon’s most iconic shapes. Aside from his other famous film star cuts like the Nancy Kwan, Peggy Moffitt, Mia Farrow, Grace Coddington and Mary Quant haircuts, the five point cut's architecture and precision are unmistakable. In this tutorial, We take that original idea and reinterpret it with a Feather Plier Razor. The result is the same recognizable geometric shape, but with a softer, more modern edge.

The British hairdresser extraordinaire made history in the fashion industry many years ago in the 1960s with his sharp geometric shapes. The beauty of his shapes led to international hairdressing recognition. Launching many hair salons, the Sassoon cut has become an iconic style that will live forever in the industry. 

This 5 point haircut is designed for professional hairstylists and students who want to:

Understand graduation using a razor

See how to adapt a classic hair cut using a razor without losing the silhouette

Using the Feather Plier Razor you keep the strong outline while softening its rigidity. What was once stark and graphic becomes wearable and lived-in.
