Platform Artistry: Short Cuts, Colors & Styles
In this training video, expert stylist and instructor Randy Topham explores short hair cuts using a variety of techniques. Learn different cut and color methods that will flatter and impress clients who desire a short style, or a color treatment.
Randy will walk you through two hair color techniques and two haircuts from start to finish. Explore the versatility of both hair cuts with two different styles for each, using different products and styling techniques that will keep your client's new cut fresh, fun and exciting.
During this video, Randy demonstrates haircuts with both clippers and shears for different effects. Learn how to feather-edge with a razor for a disconnected, funky-yet-chic style and learn different methods for adding texture and dimension to a short cut, depending upon the needs and hair type of each client. Learn to create a current variation on a sharp, short bob by angling the side with a sloped fringe and long bangs. These new spins on classic looks will give you limitless possibilities for customers who already have short hair, as well as those that are ready for a dramatic new cut.
In addition to expert hair cutting techniques for short hair, you will learn the hair coloring techniques that work best with short cuts, from chic and classic to edgy. Learn to deposit color and leave your clients natural hair color as a highlighter for added depth, as well as how to use a protective clear color for a soft, balanced blend from root to tip for styles that grow out beautifully. For edgier styles, learn how to make blonde pop with panels of shadow and color blocking.
Master four different styles from spontaneous looks like scrunching to luxurious and sleek looks. Learn to work with products best suited for short styles, like fibrous gum and other products to create sculpted touches.
