Short & Precision Cuts

Expert Detail. Tailored Shapes. Gender-Neutral Pricing.

We believe a great haircut isn’t defined by gender—it’s defined by the technical skill required to execute it and the time it takes to perfect the details. Our Short & Precision category is dedicated to styles that live above the ear to just above the jawline.

What to Expect: Your Red Chair Experience

When you book a short / precision cut, you aren't just getting a trim; you’re getting a custom-engineered look designed for your face shape, hair growth patterns, and lifestyle.

  • Consultation: We analyze your bone structure, hair density, and natural growth patterns. Whether you want a razor-sharp fade or a soft pixie, we align on the vision before the shears touch the hair.

  • Technical Mastery: Using specialized clipper work, scissor-over-comb techniques, or precision razor-work, your stylist sculpts a shape that holds its structural integrity as it grows.

  • The Wash: Every service includes a relaxing scalp-cleansing ritual and a wash using premium products tailored to your hair’s specific needs.

  • The Finish: Short hair requires the right "grit." We’ll show you exactly which waxes, clays, or creams to use and how to apply them to recreate that salon-fresh look every morning.

Is this the right service for me?

This category is perfect for you if you are looking for:

  • Barbering & Fades: High-tapers, skin fades, and classic tailored grooming.

  • Modern Pixie: Custom-contoured crops, pixies, and feathered short styles.

  • Architectural Shapes: Blunt French bobs, bowl crops, and asymmetrical cuts.

  • Maintenance: Keeping your current short, precision shape crisp and clean.

Note on Transformation: If you have long hair and are looking to go significantly shorter (e.g., shoulder-length to a pixie), please book a Specialty & Signature Cut so we have the extra time needed for a full consultation.

Maintenance & Pricing

Short, precision hair is high-impact but requires regular attention to stay sharp. To maintain your look and keep your lines clean, we recommend a maintenance visit every 4 to 8 weeks.

Our multi-level pricing reflects the complexity of the craft and the advanced training of your specific stylist.

SHORT HAIR

Ear-length hair or shorter. We use precision scissors and razors to create texture and movement—perfect for crops, or detailed maintenance cuts
