Hairline

Tell the shape you see apart from the cut, styling or install behind it.

What to notice

Read each definition and look for the detail it names. Related terms overlap, and a name alone cannot tell you the method or the result.

These drawings explain a term. They are not anyone’s work or results.

Laid Edges: Visible short hairs arranged into flat swoops or waves along the hairline.
Line Up: Sharp, straight edges cut into the hairline at the forehead and temples.
