“Being proficient in men’s haircutting is really important if you want to build a wide variety of clients. And, knowing different techniques that create unique textures in men’s hair is extremely helpful,” says Andrew Carruthers, Education Director for Sam Villa.

The potential minefield of blending walk-ins with booked appointments motivates many salons and barbers to opt exclusively for one or the other, but innovation-led Shortcuts now has the solution that allows salons to offer both with confidence.

It’s all change at the top of Shortcuts Software with a brand new general manager set to take over from Paul Tate, who has been at the helm of the innovative software company for more than 23 years.

One of the final steps in finishing a short haircut is detailing the perimeter, and the key to doing that successfully is having the ability to control hair properly.  That’s where a Sam Villa Artist Series Detail Comb (available at SalonCentric, State Beauty Supply and RDA ProMart) comes in handy. 

Branded client apps are no longer just for the large-scale salons, thanks to the new mySALONapp just released by Shortcuts Software!

The 10 cuts to look out for this season: each one dedicated to a different personality.

There is a reason Kristen Stewart, Ruth Negga, Zoe Kravitz, Rita Ora and others prefer a pixie now and then – this short sassy power cut leaves nothing to hide behind. It screams confidence and makes a woman shine! 

One of the most essential tools in a stylist’s kit is also one of the most simple, the trusty old comb. Andrew Carruthers, Education Director for Sam Villa, demonstrates how to use the new Sam Villa Artist Series Handle Comb when performing scissor and clipper over comb techniques, and how vertical versus horizontal sections can yield very different results.

Ruth Roche, Artistic Ambassador for Pureology Serious Colour Care, debuted three cuts for Fall 2014 inspired by shape-over-shape, mixed mediums and the 60’s. It started with the 60’s Bob, then the Modern Pixie and now it's time for Modern Geometric!

Sometimes it’s the subtle things that make all the difference. Not everyone wants a makeover, sometimes a little tweak here or there to update a look is all someone needs to be on trend for the season.
