PROJECT SASSOON TEAM DAY FEATURING DISCONNECTION CUTTING

The team spent their team day at the House of Sassoon with Project Leaders Edward Darley & Zsolt Nagy, and it was all about disconnection cutting, which is cutting is a technique used in the Sassoon ABC+ Cut course and other Sassoon Academy courses to create layered, textured looks with specific sections of hair cut at different lengths, without connecting.

It involves cutting the hair in a way that different areas of the cut are not blended together, creating a distinct geometry and visual interest.

Zoe Hodgkiss comments: “We had an amazing day learning new cutting techniques and colour placements. So much fun and working on live models. Zsolt and Edward are full of knowledge I always come away feeling more confident and excited to bring some of the learning back into the salon. I also feel like I think more out of the box when I’m at Sassoon more so than I would in the salon so that’s exciting for me to try new looks.”

Jacqui Hirst comments: “Day 3 of Project Sassoon! On another level and I am loving it! 
Zsolt is genius at the why of cutting techniques, learning the disconnection the Sassoon way was brilliant! Edward’s colour placement method will be used in my studio from now on! Absolutely loved doing my model, her first colour so was an honour! And she’s messaged me saying she loves her new look! Obviously, having the best day with peers and mentors.”
