“Artistic carving ,removing of hair length to create various forms and shapes.”
Hair Sculpting
also known as hair cutting
What are the 3 levels of observation?
Basic
Detail
Abstract
Define “Basic Observation”
Form/Shape
Define “Detail Observation”
Texture
Define “Abstract Observation”
Structure
Define “Form Line”
Outer Boundaries
Define “Inactivated”
Smooth, unbroken lines
Define “Activated”
Rough broken lines with exposed ends
Example: Curly
Define “Structure”
Abstract view
projected out visually

What are the 4 basic forms?
Solid
Graduated form
increase layer form
uniformly layered form
Define “Solid Form”
Shape: Rectangle
Texture: Unactivated
Structure: Shorter exterior processing to longer interior
Weight: Max weight at form line
AKA: one length cut, bob, dutch boy, 0 degree angle cut
Define “Graduated Form”
Shape: Triangle
Texture: Unactivated / Activated
Structure: Shorter Exterior gradually progressing toward longer interior
Weight: Above perimeter line
AKA: 45 degree angle cut
Define “Increase layer form”
Shape: Oval
Texture: Activated
Structure: Shorter interior processing to longer exterior
Weight: No Concentrated weight
AKA: shag or 180 degree angle cut
Define “Uniformly Layered from”
Shape: Circular
Texture: Activated
Structure: Consistent length
Weight: No Weight
AKA: layered cut, pixie, 90 degree angle cut
Define “Square form”
same length all the way around
Define “Round form”
short front long back
Define “Triangle form”
Short back long front
Define “Combination form”
2 or more forms with in a hair cut
Define “Crest”
Widest part of the head
