Razor Revival: The Next Wave of Shags, Bobs & Bixies

Description

Razor Revival: The Next Wave of Shags, Bobs & Bixies is a one-day intensive seminar that reimagines three iconic shapes with the soft, lived-in texture only a straightedge razor can deliver. Led by industry pioneer Nick Arrojo, this advanced hands-on class blends foundational technique with modern creativity to shape today’s most coveted cuts.

Through live demos and guided workshops, you’ll explore how to craft airy, effortless silhouettes with razor-specific skills like stroke and rotation, directional cutting, and weight removal.
