The Secret to Perfect Long Hair Cuts: Why Your Stylist Should Make You Stand

Hair-Cutting Techniques for Long Hair: The Importance of Client Positioning Philadelphia, PA – May 26, 2025 – A recent video by Mandy B. Beauty, a certified HLP & Trichologist, has gone viral, highlighting a crucial technique for cutting long hair, particularly when extensions are involved. Beauty emphasizes the necessity of having the client stand during the cut, stating, "When you're cutting hair that sits above the chair line, you don't need that client to stand up in order to cut a perimeter or one length correctly." She contrasts this with the common practice of cutting hair while the client is seated, which can lead to an uneven cut and a less natural look. The video uses a short clip of a stylist cutting hair with the client standing, illustrating the 'zero elevation' technique for a precise one-length style. The video has garnered significant attention, prompting discussions among hair stylists and hair care enthusiasts alike, proving the importance of this often overlooked detail. Beauty's expertise as a certified trichologist lends credibility to her advice, making the video a valuable resource for professionals and clients interested in achieving a perfect one-length cut.
