Product is part of the cut: What It Actually Means
The same crop can look like two different haircuts with and without product — here's why what you buy matters as much as the cut.
The short version
Product is part of the cut.
Why it matters
A textured crop styled with matte clay and the same crop with nothing in it look like two different haircuts. Ask your barber what to buy before you leave the chair.
Before your next cut
Little things like this are exactly why previewing a cut beats guessing. See any style on your own face, photoreal, before the barber ever picks up the clippers.
