the trend
The shag is back with a bang, and we
are here for it! The modern twist on
this 1970s look is everywhere, but don't
worry—this isn't your mom's haircut
from her high school days. This modern
look is edgy, fun, and effortless. It's a
great way to update the previous years'
lob trend and works on virtually anyone.
WHY WE LOVE IT
The modern shag is a great way to
change up a look on those clients
that want to keep their length but are
ready for a little more excitement.
The movement and texture created
by this cut adds an edge to any look
and it's easy for clients to style and
maintain the style between visits.
WHO IT'S BEST FOR
Everyone! The modern shag works
on all types of hair: long and short,
thick and thin, curly and straight.
Creating this cut for your client is a
great opportunity to use your expertise
to cater the look just for them.
