Short Scissor Cut Haircut

Classic Effortless Tailored

The short scissor haircut is typically cut above the ears to create a clean, polished look. With this type of haircut, the stylist uses scissors to ensure precise shaping and texturing. If desired, layers can be added to create softness and movement. This is a good option if you prefer a structured, low-maintenance look that provides you with a variety of styling options.

Towel dry hair. Apply a light cream or leave-in conditioner that enhances curls and controls frizz. Using your fingers, gently push back the hair while defining the curls to add volume. Blow dry with a diffuser on low heat to set the style and maintain the curl shape.  Finish with a light oil or serum for shine and frizz control.

Towel dry hair. Apply a small amount of light gel or styling cream to provide hold. Using a comb, style the hair to the back or the side, following the natural part. To lock in the look and add volume, blow dry on medium heat while combing your hair in the desired direction. Finish with a light mist of hairspray for additional hold.

Start with damp hair. Apply a lightweight mousse or curl cream that adds texture and provides a light hold. Using your fingers, push the hair back to allow the waves to fall naturally. Let air dry, or use a blow dryer and diffuser on low heat to enhance your waves’ natural texture and volume. Finish with a light hold hairspray to secure your look while allowing movement.
