What is a French Crop? | Abingdon | Didcot | Wantage | Oxfordshire

If you’re considering a French Crop the most effective communication to use at your next hair appointment is by way of finding a picture that you like. This is helpful for your Stylist and a picture can help identify what you like, don’t like and how appropriate your style is to your hair type, texture and lifestyle to name but a few. Your Stylist won’t be expecting you to have a grasp of hairdressing terminology and your best effort to describe in plain English what sort of style you like would be considered a great help. Whilst this can feel awkward, most experienced Stylists appreciate the effort and they will thrive when you consider something new or different and this is where they can add the most value. In our experience the easiest and most effective way to communicate your desired style is to simply ask for a ‘French Crop’ by name and this will offer a sufficient starting point for discussion.

There are other areas to consider also and your Stylist will be able to support you and if necessary point you in the right direction. With any haircut (French Crop included) if you want to personalise your cut the top, back and sides can be tweaked to tailored the cut and style to your choosing for something much more unique. In this instance if you have a picture that you like but feel that you might (for example) struggle with the length of the sides, voice this to your Stylist and that will allow for more constructive dialogue.
