Surely with a strong dose of personality, we interviewed two experts from Toni & Guy Italy to let us reveal how to show off and manage this brand new haircut.
Double Cut, how the cut is made
«The Double Cut is back, the Japanese and Manga inspired cut also known as“ Hime Cut ”. What’s it about? In Mix & Match of a long extreme cut paired with a bob »he begins to explain Marco Marchesi, Salon Director by TONI & GUY Milano Turati. “Hairlook with a linear and graphic look is perfect for daring and giving the hair a fresh and gritty new style“.

How dare the double cut
The first factor to consider is understanding what you want to express and communicate with the new look. You can opt for a extreme and decisive double cutfor those looking for a change of impact, or for a lighter and more natural hairlook, without sacrificing too much length.
«For the best realization of the cut proceed by dividing the front part where the disconnection is created, from the front one. At this point we proceed with the front part that will be worked through diagonal sections, starting from the fringe area up to the ear “he adds Marco Marchesi.
«The advice is not to dare too much otherwise the balance of the volumes would be broken. The back, on the other hand, can be slightly scaled, without creating too much movement. The difficulty of this cut lies in harmoniously balancing the short and disconnected part from the long one »continues the hairstylist.
Deconstructed and rock, who’s good with the cut?
“It’s a very cut versatile that can be adapted to many types of hair and face shapes. Not recommended on thick and thick hair, because the management at home would become difficult ».
«Be careful to correctly balance volumes and proportions. For rounder faces it is better to opt for a length at chin height, of the front, so that the hair falls on the cheekbones elongating the face; excellent instead in the extreme version for elongated faces »specifies Marco.
And to take care of it at home?
«For those who opted for one strong double cut, what you need is a straightener and a product with a shine effect “.
«It’s a cut that goes in perfect harmony with super straight hair, with a “Liquid Hair” effect. For those who have chosen a softer look, perfect if dried in a natural and soft way with the help of a diffuser and with an Anti-Frizz product »concludes Marco Marchesi.
Color games: trends to try
Finally, you can also experiment with regards to color.
«Versatility is a fundamental aspect and in this look the color effect must be thought of in symbiosis with the fluid form which can change depending on the mood and the need, “he explains Emanuele Temperini, Technical Director by TONI & GUY Italia.
«Color is the focus on how emphasize and make the surface of the hair shiny and the perfect balance between lights and shadows ».
It is a cut that goes well with warm shades that by nature enhance the brightness of the hair, reflecting the light. Resuming the trend of the moment we can speak of “Black Gold”: a combination of shades from bronze to golden combined with very deep brunette nuances.
