Should hair be cut wet or dry?
Tuesday, March 18th, 2008Question: Should hair be cut wet or dry?
Answer: This is a short question and a great one! Should hair be cut wet or dry? Genius!
The truth is that it all depends on the hair and the tools being used to cut it. There are few schools of thought and applying the correct one varies with each case.
Curly Hair:
For instance, I have found that curly hair is best cut when it is dry. I don’t comb the curls out either; I just sought of let the curls fall naturally and take on each curl individually, that way, you don’t cut too much and you respect the natural pattern of each curl. It sounds tedious but it’s no different than any other technique that requires care and practice. I have had clients however few, that prefer the wet, comb through and cut technique although they are few and far between.
Straight hair:
Some folks with short, straight hair that tends to stick out of the root instead of lay flat also prefer a dry cut. This method works best for their hair because is respects the angles of which the hair grows out of the root and I agree with that. If your hair tends to lie flat, than I would go with the wet,

Hi Dior,
Thanks so much for e-mailing in your question; a good one at that.
You know, I take issue with many hair stylist and hair professional that presume to have the ultimate opinions of what is right and wrong concerning hair styles and round shaped faces for that matter.
I know that there is a diametrical science to shapes, sizes and contours; to some degree but, can any one of us put a stamp on a personality or on enthusiasm? Can we bottle up joy and self assurance? How about isolating preference and individuality? I think not my friend…I think not.
I wrote an article not to long ago about feeling marvelous verses looking marvelous. There is a big difference between the two if you only possess the later. But if you are one of those blessed and fortunate individuals that can find beauty in yourself regardless of what the fashion industry might demand or regardless of what your friends might say and even regardless of what the mirror might reflect, than you are beautiful and the whole world wants to be like you.

Answer: Little boy’s hair seem to grow faster than we would like. Let’s face it; getting little boys to sit still while getting a hair cut in the salon is not the easiest thing to do, but necessary none the less.
