Asymmetric disconnection

Structured unique hair cuts like this is what drives my passion for hair. This hair cut was done by Stacey Broughton using a short graduation cut at 45degres angel at the back and disconnecting the front. The hair was cut to compliment and enhance the good features of the client.

The front has been cut like this intentionally to create an Avant Garde look but also be able to wear the hair  classically

Step by step to a bouffant




The bouffant is a great style to wear for a night out or for a casual occasion. It can be worn with hair accessories to give it a glam look and coupled with great make-up and a fantastic outfit, this hair style can have you turning heads. I'll give you a step by step guide on how to recreate the look. 


Step 1: Section the hair in 3 sections. Section off the crown area (top of head) where the bouffant will sit. Section off the back area just before the neck and also section off the front. 

Step 2: Back comb the sectioned off crown area by holding sections up and forward, back combing gently. After back combing smooth out the hair into one and twist it securing it with a pin.


 Step 3: After securing with pins, take the hair from the sides and wrap around the hair in the crown area also securing with a pin. Brush it out to blend with the back.

Step 4: When you have secured the hair and blended the sides in, start curling the parts of hair that is hanging from the secured bouffant. This will allow you to create movement or designs with the hair rather than leaving it hanging.
Step 5: 
Put curls, spirals or waves in the parts of the hair you desire. Use hair spray to maintain the hair and allow it to last longer. 
 
Finish off the style by curling the front as desired and checking the height of the bouffant
and there you have it! I hope this was helpful
