The end result was just what I wanted: a slightly asymmetrical bob, above my shoulders, longer in the front, with layers that added volume and the illusion of more curls. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I decided I wanted the front pieces to frame my face a little more and she was happy to adjust it for me. She then went back to the longer pieces in front and cut them to the proper length, as well as touching up another few spots now that my wave pattern was more visible. I'm very picky about how I style my hair, so the fact that I liked the way she styled it is saying something. I may not know what products she used, but I do know my hair looked beautiful and super wavy when she was done. When my hair was mostly dry, she diffused it with the DevaFuser. After scrunching my hair with her hands and a microfiber towel she put in clips in at the roots and put me under the hooded dryer. I'm honestly not sure what styling products she used (sorry!) because we were chatting away. Next, she cleansed my hair with Low-Poo and conditioned (using the Squish-to-Condish method) and finger detangled with One Condition. At this point she did most of the cut except for a few pieces in the front that had gone fairly straight due to lack of product. This is a technique that is part of what stylists learn in their Deva Cut training that helps to identify the natural curl clumps. She did use a raking-like motion while cutting my hair but don't mistake this for combing the curls out or detangling dry. It was a curl by curl cut done on totally dry hair (I did show up with my hair down, dry, detangled, and with very little product in, as she requests on her website). I know some people get Deva Cuts and are disappointed if it isn't done curl by curl but that was NOT the case here. So, I think she would also be a great choice for those unfamiliar with or new to the CG method, not just people with more experience.
However, it was clearly from talking to her that she knew what she was talking about and she had some useful tips for me (such as diffusing to encourage my hair to curl more). I am a big nerd about my hair and have been using the Curly Girl method for a long time, so our session wasn't focused around instruction. When she began the cut, we discussed my usual hair routine. We began by talking about my hair and the cut I wanted as well as any concerns I had. This definitely ranks as one of the best haircuts I've ever gotten- both because I really like the results and because I honestly just had a good time. I'm a 2b wavy and I got my first ever Deva Cut with Beth at her salon, Ollie+Mo, on September 12, 2018.
