When I began my career in the early ’70s, the haircutting world was changing fast. Vidal Sassoon and the British movement made precision haircutting the standard — strong shapes, clean lines, and a discipline that transformed the industry. That foundation taught me how to cut with accuracy and intention, skills I still use every day.

Then came the French influence. French haircutting is softer and more fluid. It’s about removing weight exactly where it’s needed, creating seamless layers and effortless movement. The result? Hair that falls perfectly into place, grows out beautifully, and captures that timeless Parisian chic.

Here in the U.S., haircutting took on a more versatile and lifestyle-driven style. American haircutting focuses on practicality and personality — tailoring a cut to your daily routine, your styling habits, and the look you want to project. It’s modern, adaptable, and easy to live in.

At West Coast Hair Design, we bring all three worlds together in what we call The Signature Cut. This unique approach combines:

• The structure and control of British precision
• The elegance and fluidity of French technique
• The personalized versatility of American styling

The result is a haircut that enhances your features, works with your natural texture, and keeps looking beautiful long after you leave the salon.

Our clients tell us their hair not only looks amazing on day one, but continues to feel effortless weeks later. That’s the magic of a cut designed just for you — a true blend of artistry, training, and decades of expertise.

At West Coast Hair Design, we don’t just give haircuts. We create signature styles that are uniquely yours.
