QuoteReplyTopic: what's this cut called? Posted: July 12 2008 at 2:16pm
Back in the ninetys I remember seeing a haircut that had a very strong weight line anywhere from two inches up the nape to in some cases over the ears. The line was ruler straight, and the hair was either buzzed quite close or even shaved below the line. The top usually had a couple of inches in length, it sort of looked like a wedge, but what was this style called? I always called it a line cut. My wife has seriously been thinking about getting the line a little below the tops of the ears, and leaving the top longer. If anybody has any pics of this cut please point me in their direction, her stylist wants photos before cutting.
I remember that haircut, I used to give it to my daughter, ha, I do not know the name, I do know what you are talking about though, and if anyone knows its the people on this forum, good luck.
Now that is a short taperd wedge. Sorry from the first explanation Ithought differant. I do see alot of them but do not cut many. Only one or two ask for that cut thru the year. how about this cut?
Thanks for the pics Mike and Hawg, but none of them are quite like the cut I am talking about, Hawgs pic #4,7,and8 come the closest, but not quite. The weight line created a very abrupt change in length, and it was always cut very straight. It was almost like a bowl cut, except the weight line was lower.I have looked all over the web and have not found a pic of it, just references to it, some call it a bi-level cut or a mushroom cut. Great pics Mike, my wife has a cut almost identical to this.
The first two pictures of the bowlcuts come the closest, but the weightline was below the top of the ear. I know this cut was popular around here back in the early nineties, but I'll be damned if I can find a picture.

Well, my wife finally got the strong weight line haircut this past Saturday, and hates it. The line is from almost the tops of her ears, straight across. The nape was clippered with a #2 guard, and boxed off at the bottom. I guess she thinks its too radical, but I don't think I have ever seen such a cute style on a pretty lady before. Never the less, today she wants to go and have the weight line blended in. This is going to require a very short tapered nape as the hair below the line is 1/4" long, and above it is 1". Does anyone have suggestions on a style? I have tried to talk her into keeping it but I think her mind is made up. If I could figure out how to post pictures on this site I would show you what her cut looks like.
Emo has been associated with emotional, shy, & introvert. Emo has deep emotion described by music, fashion, & style. One of several signs of emo is the applying of emo hairstyle. It usually comes with straight hair, long bangs brushed to one side (often covering one eye/face), asymmetrical lines, dyed black and highlighted with bright colors, & sometimes spikes up the back side.

I was going through some photos and found a pic of the weight line cut my wife got last summer. Although she hated it at the time she has been giving indications she may be willing to try it again. Lets keep our fingers crossed.
Here is another pic with a different view. That night we were going out to dinner and she wore a shirt and tie with a vest, she said something like "I might as well dress like a boy since I have a boy's cut." At the time she really didn't like the cut, but now less than a year later she is seriously considering it again. Go figure!
