Cut

1. Horizontal sections were worked through the back and a line cut to retain squareness. 2. Working through the sides, hair was elevated and the line continued towards the front.

3. The top was overdirected to each side, disconnecting from below the curvature of the head to create asymmetry. 4. The fringe area was cut using a series of disconnections to create a stepped effect.

5. Hair was then personalised.

Colour

1. Hair was prelightened. The perimeter of the hairline was block-coloured with Indigo to add structure. 2. The two offset back sections were coloured with Jet to add density and strength.

3. The top was divided into three teardrop-shaped sections and worked with interlocking slices, using any three of the four colours at a time - Jet, Chocolate, Indigo or Truffle. 4. All three colours were smudged together, varying the amount and position of each colour to give an irregular effect.

Styling: Relaxing balm as applied and hair was blow-dried. The hair was pulled into shape and dressed with a matte paste
