I am a hairdresser in Louisiana.  Recently advertisement for the "California Shag Cut" has been popping up every where.  I am familiar with a shag cut.  Does any one know what's so different about the California one?

I have absolutely no idea, maybe someone else will.  I wanted to suggest that maybe its just a blonde or highlighted shag?  It's a funny name for a haircut because "california shag" is actually a type of carpet!

Maybe it was an advertisement for the carpet?

No, it's advertised at hair salons.

I wonder if they are talking about the Jennifer Anniston "Shag" cut that was so popular a few years ago. (You know, the one that curves under from the crown in longer layers and then flips out at the neck level) It's still extremely popular but it's called all kinds of things now - upsidedown shag, square layer shag, square layer bob, are a few I've heard it called.

My guess is, you set it with rolling papers?

I'm just kidding. I couldn't resist. I live in CA, by the way (and I'm rolling-paper free).

Seriously, if it's advertised at hair salons, why don't you wander in and ask them?

I heard you are advertising a California Shag cut, what does that look like?

Just looking for a few good hair slaves - is that too much to ask?
