Questions
- What hair type do you need for a broccoli cut?
- Wavy at minimum, and it gets better the curlier you are. The shape is made by curl clumping into itself, so straight hair will not form the dome without a perm first. If you are straight-haired and want this, look at the tight perm instead.
- What do you ask the barber for?
- Ask to keep about three inches on top, cut round rather than flat, with the weight left in — and pick your fade separately. Most barbers know it by name now, but 'round, keep the weight, do not thin it out' is the instruction that matters.
