Low taper on thick wavy hair
Thick, wavy hair is a gift until it starts puffing out sideways by week three. [photo shared with client permission]
Here's the breakdown in the Reel. We took bulk out of the sides with clipper-over-comb instead of going straight to a short guard, so the waves still show through. Low taper at the temples and neck. On top, point-cutting to remove weight without killing the length, then a light cream so the wave pattern does the styling.
Watch the full cut, then send this to someone with hair like this.

Midweek chair is open
Wednesday is the quiet middle of the week, which makes it the best day to get in without a wait.
I've got a few chairs open: [DATE & TIME].
Good for a quick cleanup before a big meeting, a beard tidy that's overdue, or the cut you've been putting off since New Year's. Slide in, catch up, walk out sharp, and still make it home for dinner.
These go fast once they hit Stories, so don't think too long.

Thursday · Truth Thursday
What happens between every client
Ever wonder what I'm doing during that minute after you stand up? Watch.
Cape off and shaken out. Chair and headrest wiped down. Combs and brushes into the disinfectant. Clipper blades brushed, sprayed and left to sit as long as the label says. Razor blade out and into the sharps container. Fresh neck strip ready for the next person. Hands washed.
Share this with someone who's picky about clean shops. They'll like it here.
