Modern Rugby Mullet
The result and the process
The Modern Rugby Mullet is a precise men’s haircut based on circular geometry, where every element—from the heavy, fuller fringe, through the high tapers, to the elongated back—is a deliberate choice. This course shows you how to transform thick, hard-to-style hair into a hairstyle with character that highlights the natural shape of the head and is easy to style every day.
Kamil Cesarski guides you through the entire process, starting with dividing the head into key zones, including a section at the top that allows you to control the side sections. You’ll see how to work in a circular motion both horizontally and vertically, using the non-redirected sectioning technique to achieve full control over the length and natural flow of the hair. The course discusses in detail how to build heavy bangs and blend the sections at the back of the head so that the mullet retains its volume and proper shape.
In this course, you'll learn:
- The complete process of cutting a circular shape horizontally and vertically – how to control the shape and length across the entire head
- Building a taper using the step-down method—starting with cap #2, through the open and closed blades, all the way to trimming and shaving
- A head divider with a box section at the top, used to control the side sections and maintain the proportions of the hairstyle
- A channel-based texturizing technique to tame frizzy hair without losing volume and give it a compact structure
- A style featuring thick, fuller bangs cut in layers to create a natural, flowing look that adds volume and character
- Precise blending of the sides with the top and back using the comb-scissors technique to maintain the consistency of the geometric shape
- Controlling length and volume at the back of the head by dividing it into upper and lower occipital sections and working with disconnection
After this course, you’ll begin to consciously use circular geometry as an alternative to square shapes, allowing you to better control voluminous and hard-to-style hair. You’ll learn to build high tapers using the step-cut method and create hairstyles that are both technically advanced and organically tailored to the client, highlighting their natural head shape.

What's inside
The concept of a circular haircut
"We'll probably work in a circular motion throughout the entire hairstyle."
Body position when clipping the hindquarters
"I'm also moving in a gentle circular motion, as if I were walking backward in a circle."
Angled layered bangs
"I position the scissors at a forty-five-degree angle."
Transition from a square to a triangle
“Then we’ll redirect everything to that location. So we’ll be trimming the triangle.”
Intense wrist work during the taper
"As you can see, there's a lot of wrist action right at the connection point."
Why avoid scoring during tapering
"I would absolutely never use spot hair removal here, because it would look like a Photoshop effect."
Choosing a tool for the back texture
"I don't use a Chinese knife, so the hair doesn't get even more frizzy."
Using clay before drying
"Always use just a small amount of clay. It will give us even more control when using the hair dryer."
