Blunt hair is a hairstyle where the hair is cut straight across at the ends, creating a uniform length and a clean, sharp line.
Unlike hairstyles with layers or textured ends, a blunt cut avoids any tapering or graduation. The stylist aims to achieve a precise, even length across the entire perimeter of the hair. This typically means skipping layering techniques altogether and using shears to cut the hair in a straight, consistent line.
Here's a breakdown of what defines a blunt haircut:
- Uniform Length: The most crucial characteristic. All strands are ideally the same length (or nearly so).
- Straight Cut: The ends are cut straight across, creating a defined line.
- Absence of Layers: Layers are generally avoided to maintain the solid, blunt effect.
- Sharp, Clean Line: The finished look presents a noticeable, even line at the bottom of the hair.
A blunt cut can be adapted to various hair lengths, from bobs and lobs to longer styles. The key is the precise, even cut that gives the style its signature look. This style can give the appearance of thicker, fuller hair because all the hair weight sits at the ends.
