Step 4 - Natural Blowdry
Blowdry is done with a vess brush to naturally let the hair fall into place.
The vess brush massages the scalp while blowdrying, consistently brushing against the growth of the hair to let it sit naturally.
This technique is used to complement the refinement step.

Haircuts We Specialise In
Ladies Haircuts
Whether you’re considering a fresh new look or updating your current style, each haircut is tailored to your features, with careful attention to face shape, hair texture and density. From adding volume to fine hair to taming thick, unmanageable hair, we create effortless, versatile styles that work for you.
- Precision Bobs and Graduated Bobs
- Sharp, versatile bobs designed to complement your features, head shape and hair texture — from blunt bobs to softer, layered shapes, including French bobs and A-line bobs.
- Lobs (Long Bobs)
- A low-maintenance, versatile cut. Wear it sleek and blunt or add texture with a choppy finish — ideal if you want to keep length while adding movement.
- Crops and Pixie Cuts
- Short cuts built on precision and detail, creating clean, flattering lines. We tailor the shape to your face and hair texture for a personalised finish.
- Layers
- Layered cuts that add movement and texture — from subtle long layers to face-framing layers, including butterfly, wispy, choppy, shaggy, angled and curly layers.
- Fine Hair Volume & Shape
- If your hair is fine or falls flat, we shape the cut to create lift, body and movement without compromising natural softness.
- Thick Hair Control & Balance
- For thick, heavy or unmanageable hair, we refine weight distribution and shape so your hair feels lighter and styles more easily.
Long Hair Cutting
Long hair needs a different level of care and precision. We assess your hair’s flow, density and structure, then create a shape that brings out the best in your hair without compromising on length.
- Movement and structure without sacrificing length.
- Refines volume while maintaining a soft, natural flow.
- Cut to grow out softly and maintain balance over time.
- Suitable for all long hair types, from fine to thick and textured.
- Long Layers & Shape
- Add movement and softness while keeping your length. We tailor layering to your density and texture so it falls naturally and styles easily.
- Length-Preserving Refresh
- Ideal if you want healthier ends and a cleaner shape without taking off noticeable length — a polished maintenance cut.
- Face-Framing for Long Hair
- Subtle face-framing can elevate long hair instantly — enhancing cheekbones and jawline and blending beautifully with styling.
Men’s Haircuts & Grooming
Every appointment starts with a clear conversation about your goals, while we assess your hair’s texture, growth patterns and personal style. Whether you prefer a simple buzz cut, a crew cut or a fade that complements your face and bone structure, the cut is built around what works for you.
- Classic Crew Cuts & Short Cuts
- Short haircuts need careful shaping and clean lines so the style looks sharp from every angle — crew cuts, buzz cuts, Caesar cuts, Ivy League and taper cuts.
- Tapered & Fade Cuts
- From low fades to high fades and tapers, we aim for a seamless transition that works with your natural texture — wavy, straight, thick or curly.
- Medium-Length Styles
- Pompadours, quiffs, side-swept cuts and slicked-back looks, tailored to your face shape and growth pattern so they look great however you style them.
- Long Cuts
- For longer styles we maintain structure while allowing length and flexibility, with layering for curly, wavy or straight hair.
- Textured & Choppy Styles
- Textured crops, tousled and choppy styles, modern mullets, faux hawks and French crops that bring out natural volume and movement.
- Styling & Product Guidance
- We’ll show you how to recreate the look at home and recommend products that suit your hair type, hold preference and routine.
Scissor Over Comb
Scissor over comb is one of the most refined techniques in haircutting. Rather than relying on fixed guard lengths, the haircut is shaped by hand, section by section — giving a cleaner blend, a more natural transition between lengths and a softer finish than clipper-only work.
- A softer blend between lengths, without harsh lines.
- Controlled removal of bulk, especially in thicker hair.
- A shape that follows the head and the hair’s natural movement.
- Grows out more evenly, so the cut keeps its shape between appointments.
Precision Cutting: Our Philosophy
Founded by Cayom and Fazila, TopOne has always been about expertise in hairstyling, from Mayfair to the heart of Richmond. As a Vidal Sassoon-trained Senior Stylist Director, Cayom’s precision-driven approach sets the tone for every haircut in the salon.
- No thinning scissors or razors — our cuts are created using precision scissors.
- Every cut is tailored to the individual: face shape, head shape, hair density and texture.
- A bespoke consultation at the start of every appointment.
- Rigorous, continuous training so the whole team works to the same standard.
Summary
Haircuts Overview
Our haircut service is consultation-led and detail-driven. We focus on shape, balance and how your hair grows out—then finish with a natural blowdry and refinement so the cut looks right from every angle.
Consultation sets the result
Reference photos help, but we also look at head shape, growth patterns and your styling routine to design a cut that suits you and is realistic to maintain.
Precision cutting + balance
We focus on weight removal, graduation, fringe lengths and small details that affect how your hair behaves between visits—so it still looks good weeks later.
Natural blowdry then refine
We use a natural blowdry to let the hair sit properly, then refine on dry hair. This is where the cut gets polished and perfected.
Ladies and mens tailoring
Ladies cuts often include more length/shape work and time for refinement. Mens cuts are built around clean structure, balance and a sharp grow-out—often using scissor/clippers together.
Haircuts FAQ
How long does a haircut appointment take?
Timing depends on hair length, density and what we’re doing. We don’t rush—consultation, washing, cutting and finishing can take longer because detail and hair health matter.
Should I bring reference photos?
Yes—photos help a lot. They let us understand the vibe you want, then we tailor it to your hair type, head shape and what’s realistic for your maintenance routine.
Do you cut hair wet or dry?
We cut with a mix depending on the style and hair type. We also refine on dry hair to check shape, balance and how it sits naturally once finished.
What’s a natural blowdry and why do you do it?
A natural blowdry helps the hair fall into place so we can see the cut properly and refine it. It’s part of making sure the shape looks right from every angle.
How often should I get my hair cut?
It depends on your style and growth, but many people book every 6–10 weeks for upkeep. Shorter styles often need more frequent visits to stay sharp.
Can I book a free consultation with a director?
Yes. You can book a free consultation with a director, who will advise what cut will suit you best and assess your face shape, hair density and texture.
Do you work with fine hair and thick hair?
Yes. We regularly tailor haircuts to add volume to fine hair and to remove bulk and improve manageability for thick hair, while keeping the final shape soft and wearable.
How do you cut long hair without sacrificing length?
We focus on balance, structure and movement—shaping the silhouette and refining volume while keeping as much length as possible. Many clients with long hair book a refresh every 8–12 weeks.
Do you do fades, tapers and scissor over comb?
Yes. We do low and high fades, tapers, crew cuts and buzz cuts, and we use scissor over comb where a softer, more natural blend is wanted. Many men refresh their cut every 3–6 weeks.
Do you use thinning scissors or razors?
No. Our cuts are created using precision scissors, without thinning scissors or razors.
