Dry Hair Cutting & French Styling at Chrome

Dry Hair Cutting

A Philosophy, Not Just a Technique

At Chrome, haircutting is a craft rooted in intentionality, technique, and artistry. While we’re known for our dry hair cutting and French styling, our approach is fluid — just like hair. We believe in doing what’s best for the individual, which means cutting wet, dry, or both, depending on your texture, style, and desired outcome.

What Is Dry Hair Cutting?

Dry cutting allows our stylists to sculpt your hair in its natural, lived-in state — as it falls, moves, and behaves in real life. With dry cutting, we:

    •    Customize the shape in real time

    •    Refine layers and weight for better movement

    •    Create haircuts that grow out beautifully and last longer

    •    Focus on precision and texture, especially on dry detailing

But that doesn’t mean we only cut hair dry.

When Do We Cut Hair Wet?

We often cut hair wet when:

    •    Creating classic shapes like bobs, where clean lines and structure are key

    •    Working with curly textures, where curl patterns need to be assessed wet and detailed dry

    •    Starting a technical haircut that requires structure before softening and refining dry

In many cases, we begin wet and refine the haircut dry, especially for finishing and tailoring.

What Is French Styling?

French styling is not just about how we finish hair — it’s how we approach everything. Inspired by Parisian hairdressing, it’s based on repetition, softness, and refinement.

    •    We style and cut in rhythm — working the shape over and over until it falls just right

    •    We leave room for organic flow and personality

    •    We believe in effortless beauty — hair that looks natural, not forced

French styling is about movement and emotion, not stiffness or perfection. Whether it’s a soft fringe or a tousled wave, the goal is the same: hair that feels like you.

What Makes Chrome Different?

Our team is trained in both technical wet cutting and artistic dry detailing, influenced by the French school of styling. With us, there’s no one-size-fits-all:

    •    We assess every client’s hair and needs before deciding the best cutting method

    •    We mix techniques to bring out the best shape, movement, and wearability

    •    We focus on longevity, style, and natural beauty

Is It Right for You?

Our method is ideal for:

    •    Clients who want personalized shapes that suit their lifestyle

    •    Anyone who wears their hair natural, wavy, or low-maintenance

    •    Lovers of classic cuts (like bobs) who want lasting structure

    •    Curly clients who want their texture understood and respected

    •    Anyone ready for a better haircut — not just a haircut
