We love the feeling of a fresh chop. The maintenance though? Less so. But what if one cut could see you through months of good hair? Enter: the “cami cut.”
The concept of a multi-hyphenate chop was brought to our attention by pro London hair stylist duo, The Hair Bros, who created the cut for one of their clients. The haircut starts with a polished just-above-the-shoulder bob, that graduates into a deliciously swishy just-above-the-collarbone cut, then grows into a flowing midi cut, before reaching almost boob-length without feeling wilty and misshapen.
The Hair Bros explain that the carefully chopped style was designed to emancipate clients from “8 week wonders”—the cuts that look phenomenal when they're first cut in, then become overgrown within a couple of months.
“We always a say a great haircut should look amazing whether it’s the day you leave the space, or five months down the line,” they explain. “Most of you who come and see us will hear us say we’ll see you in 6 months, or in a year. This allows your hair to go through so many different stages of the haircut and breaks you out of the 8 week ‘see you for a trim’ cycle,” they noted in a caption to followers.
It makes sense for anyone who likes to grow into their cut. “You may find your fringe or your bob sits best, not the day it’s cut, but one or two months down the line. It takes time for hair to settle to its perfect place,” The Hair Bros say. And it releases you from the relentless maintenance that some chops, like short, ultra blunt bobs require.
“A trim every 8 weeks can trap you in to a just-below or just-above the shoulders bob cycle, or a fringe that never gets past looking blocky. A lot of clients don’t even realise that their hair can grow as long as it can because it’s always getting chopped off before they get the chance to grow it past a certain point,” the Hair Bros explain.
Of course, not all cuts will, um, make the cut. “Some haircuts do need a cut every 8 weeks—crops, very bleached hair, cuts with lots of layers that is styled in a set—but most don’t,” they add. “So enjoy your hair at different lengths and embrace the in between and the quirks that come with it. Then when you’re in for a cut, you’ll really notice the change. Hair grows, so have fun."
