(New York, NY) – When guests start coming out of quarantine, they are going to crave reentry style. Jesse Linares, Sam Villa ArTeam, is a pro at more dramatic looks and has a technique for short baby fringe that looks aggressively intentional.
“I know it looks scary, but sometimes the scariest techniques are actually the easiest ones to pull off,” explains Linares.
• Isolate where fringe should live – usually the corner of one eye vertically to the other, past that hair will fall to the side of head.
• When going for crisp definition like a picket fence or zig zag, cut hair at a natural fall, elevating it will lose strength in the edge.
• Have guest close their eye and make the first cut, the low elevation creates a very strong line, make the creative decision on the next cut…how long or short, open up one eye, attack from opposite direction to create a peak…
• Be aggressive, and note that the shorter the hair, the more the influence of the root comes into play, which can make it look more punk and edgy!
