Textured 70s-Inspired Cut How-To

Create a trapezoid starting from ¾ of the outside of the right eyebrow to ¾ of the outside of the left eyebrow and continue up to the level of the crown (panel A). Starting at the base of the trapezoid near the crown, create a triangle with the point facing down (panel B) and then trace a straight line to about 1 cm (0.39 inches) behind the ear, creating the C panels. Trace a line that runs parallel to the shoulders, beginning from the point of section B and going above the ear to create the D panels. The rest of the hair is panel E.

Panel E: Define the perimeter length 4-5 cm (1.58-1.97 inches) below the shoulders and bring all the hair to this length. Form into a round shape. Continue to loosely shape hair into a circle, bringing the two side sections together with the back perimeter and bringing all of the hair to the guideline.

Panel C: Lower the base of the perimeter 2-3 cm (0.79-1.18 inches), creating a concave shape and bringing all of the hair to the central guideline.

Panel D: Create diagonal sections, bringing them to the guideline created in section E to form a concave shape.

Divide panel B into two parts, connecting them to the remaining section of the perimeter through a concave shape.

Divide panel A into two sections. Lower the perimeter of the section of hair, creating a concave shape, until it is touching the side perimeter of C.

Finish the cut using the scissors with the blades open. Lightly tousle the hair to separate and diminish volumes.

In this look, we see a delicate finger wave blended into looser texture.
