A haircut does not start with the first cut — it starts with reading what kind of hair you actually have.
Two people can have hair of the same length, yet the same cut will not sit the same way on both. Strand thickness, the direction of the crown whorl, where the hairline begins, temple structure and face proportion all decide how a cut will fall.
For that reason the hair is examined dry first. Wet hair misleads: it gets heavy, lies flat where it should stand, and hides its own growth direction.
The real test of a haircut is not in the shop but on the third day. What makes a shape hold is not length but where the transitions end and where the weight is removed.
Before you leave, you are also shown how to style it — which direction to comb, how much product is enough, which area to leave alone.
The shop is on Horhor Street in the Iskenderpasa neighbourhood of Fatih, within walking distance of Aksaray metro and the Vezneciler area.
Not required, but recommended. You can call 0531 321 00 30.
Yes, and it helps. You will be told honestly how much of that cut is possible with your hair type.
