BellaOnline Forums Beauty and Self Hair Trimming Tricks

Lynn, please see if you can explain what I just read in a magazine. "Women with chin to shoulder length hair should have sublayers or pointy cuts. The stylist holds his scissors vertically and snips into the ends of hair all around the hair's perimeter. It softens ends so as your hair grows, it will continue to look just like you left the salon. I simply "don't get it". Thank you. Happy B

It is called point cutting. The ends turn out something like this vvvvvvvvv instead of _____________. It does soften the look of the cut. I'm not sure that it makes your cut last longer. I think that any cut that is well done should look good as it grows out.
