How to Cut a Shag

Follow me on Instagram @EmChenHair 🤍
There are so many ways to cut a shag, but this is one of my favorite methods. I usually cut 90-100% of it dry. Why dry? So I can see how each strand falls as I cut it, and go back to adjust as I go if needed. Dry cutting while the hair is ironed straight also allows me to check the blend. The layers are short, but I still want them to be seamless, should my client ever want to wear their hair sleek & straight. For Lindsay’s hair in this video, we finished her haircut wet, with a razor to make her sides a bit more… “wolfy” 🐺.

People don’t understand one of the major differences between a decent cut and a great cut is texture work after the basic shape has been cut in using straight lines. Eg “shattering” those ends.

I didn't think I could have a shag haircut, because I have fine hair, but my stylist is fantastic!
I was over due and just got my hair cut before Christmas...
As usual I walked out feeling like a million bucks 🎉 I love the messy look...
Everyone deserves to love their hair and have an affordable stylist...Be picky, it's your hair and you look at it every day...
May everyone look and feel their best for 2025! 🎊

I had a shag 40 years ago. I loved my hair then.

You deserve way more likes & subscribers! You're an engineer, architect, & physicist of hair!
I just finished watching 'Based on a True Story' and this client sorta looks like Kaley Cuoco in it.

Can a shorter version of the same technique be done on a man? Would it work? Thank you.
