Mullet

Mullet is a modern take on the classic, built on the intentional design of horizontal and vertical shapes. The course shows you how to plan the entire structure of the haircut - from a flat square at the back to a progressive triangle on the sides - before you make the first cut. This technique turns a seemingly chaotic haircut into a thoughtful, geometric composition, ideal for working with a client's naturally curly hair.

Paweł Pollheimer guides you through the entire process, starting with the fundamental horseshoe section and precise geometry planning. You'll see how to first build the outer shape of the haircut by working horizontally, then refine it vertically, section by section. The course covers in detail how to work with elevation using reference points on the body - for example, directing the hair toward the chest to build a perfect square on the sides.

In this course, you'll see

• Planning vertical and horizontal shapes as the foundation of the entire haircut - a square at the back, a triangle on the sides
• Creating a precise horseshoe section from the cowlick to the temples, and the parting that separates the back from the sides
• The full taper fade graduation process: from prepping the plane with a #4 guard to blending down all the way to the zero line
• Selecting and applying two different styling products - matte paste on the back for control, and curl cream on top for texture
• Working with a texturizing razor at a 45-degree angle on the hair ends to add lightness and maximum texture
• Using reference points on the body (e.g., the chest) to control elevation and build the square shape
• Final personalizing of the haircut on dry hair, including a scissor slide-cutting technique on the fringe for a 'messy' effect

After this course, you'll start designing the haircut with intention, based on geometry, instead of just recreating its shape. You'll understand how the flat back and progressive sides work together to create a balanced mullet silhouette. You'll learn to build the taper fade as an integral part of the composition and personalize the whole look on curly hair, giving your client a haircut with character that still looks intentionally styled.
