What is the technique for feathering in haircutting?

Feathering in haircutting refers to the technique of gradually tapering the ends of the hair to create a soft, blended appearance. This method involves cutting the hair at an angle, which allows for a more fluid and natural look, as opposed to a heavy, blunt edge. Feathering adds movement and texture, making it especially popular for styles where a softer silhouette is desired, such as in layered cuts or shag hairstyles.

Using this technique allows hairstylists to customize the look based on the client's hair type, face shape, and personal style preference. It’s an effective way to eliminate bulk while still maintaining length, providing a dynamic finish that enhances the overall hairstyle.
