Razor
Creative
Description
Razor Creative is a one-day immersive seminar that elevates your cutting craft with the distinctive softness, movement, and texture only a straightedge razor can deliver. Led by Nick Arrojo, this hands-on class blends foundational technique with advanced artistry—helping you master contemporary shapes that clients love.
With a focus on modern trends, the seminar includes work on three of today’s most in-demand styles: shags, bobs, and bixies. You’ll learn how to use razor-specific techniques—stroke and rotation, tapering, slide cutting, and shattering—to create looks that are lightweight, fluid, and fashion-forward.
Expect a full day of inspiration, including live demonstrations from Nick and extensive hands-on practice as you bring each shape to life on a mannequin. Explore close-to-the-root detailing, seamless layering, and modern silhouette building—giving you the tools and confidence to create wearable, customized, trend-forward cuts.
