Take Control of the Curl

Now more than ever, women with textured hair love flaunting their natural curls. To make sure your curly-haired clients look perfectly put together, you need to take control of the curl. With a blunt shear, his signature weave technique and proper management of how much weight is removed, Sam Villa says you’ll master the art of cutting curly hair in no time. Here’s what you do: Start by applying Redken Fresh Curls Curl Refiner to thick, coarse hair to tame. Pick up the desired section close to the scalp, the crown or mid-shaft; it’s your call—this technique can be done anywhere on the head. Weave the Sam Villa Signature Series 7” Dry Cutting Shear through the section, just like you would if doing a highlight. You are controlling the amount of hair picked up, and therefore determining the amount of weight to cut out. Close the shear. Because you are closing a blunt blade, ends will be nice and clean and the integrity of the hair will be left intact. Once hair is dry, apply Redken Fresh Curls Curl Boost to re-energize the curl with control and shine.
