What is the correct angle for cutting hair in a blunt haircut?

In a blunt haircut, the correct angle for cutting the hair is 0 degrees. This technique involves cutting the hair straight across without any elevation or layering, resulting in a uniform edge that provides a sleek and polished look. When using a 0-degree angle, the stylist ensures that all the hair is cut to the same length, creating that characteristic blunt line.

This approach is particularly effective for achieving a strong, clean silhouette which can enhance the overall shape of the hairstyle. It is beneficial for various hair types and can give the impression of fullness and weight, which is desirable in many blunt styles.

In contrast, the other angles represent different cutting techniques: a 90-degree cut generally adds layers and movement, a 45-degree angle creates a graduated or layered effect, and 180 degrees typically produces an extreme layering effect or long degrees of layering, which is not applicable in a blunt cut scenario. Understanding these angles is crucial for stylists to achieve the desired aesthetic in haircuts.
