The Calligraphy Cut —

A unique hairdressing technique that creates volume, texture, and bounce without split ends.

Used in Europe for more than two decades, it’s a detail oriented technique which utilizes a precision-sharp pen-shaped tool referred to as The Calligrapher.

Make your hair dance

Get the exact hair density you’re looking for, increase your hair length without struggle, and enjoy the additional motion and bounce.

Increase shine and movement

More surface area on the ends leads to additional light reflection and shine, plus a super soft and silky feel throughout that lasts for months.

Lighter, fuller, and healthier hair

Whether your hair is too thick, too thin, or showing signs of unhealthiness, a calligraphy haircut will give you the exact look you’re after.

Born from Passion
Developed by Technology
Proven by Science

Originated in Germany by Frank Brorman —

Inspired by cutting flower stems, the handcrafted calligraphy pen is made of high quality stainless steel that’s extremely sharp, yet safe due to its recessed blades, ergonomic design, and perfect balance.

The pen’s blade is sharpened to a very sharp 3° angle, and aligned within the tool to cut the hair at the ideal angle of 21°. This helps the stylist to guide the direction of the hair, and increases the surface area of the hair by 280%, thinning the hair while significantly reducing split ends.

The unique design of the Calligrapher gives the hair more richness and enhances the hair’s natural mobility with each stroke. Plus, it’ll reduce your blow dry time! Only a blade like this can produce such brilliant results.

Your calligraphy haircut can be easily customized and applied to any haircut style you’re looking for, and it works with almost all types of hair!

Please note: very curly or very damaged hair likely will not benefit from this technique unfortunately.

A note from the stylist…

After 20+ years of mastering my cutting skills with shears, and the subsequent 14 years performing racor cuts in non-surgical hair replacement, learning the art of the calligraphy cut was a natural progression. I was totally excited and up for the challenge. Becoming BlackStar Certified has reignited my passion for hair cutting! I love working with this tool and what it does to the hair. I am excited for every hair cut. Thank you Frank Brormann for creating this prolific technique. Calligraphy cut is not just a haircut, it’s an experience!

This is what I was destined to do, and who I was meant to be.

This photo is from the day I got my BlackStar certification. The calligrapher changed my life!

“The calligraphy cut makes my thick, wavy hair flow beautifully without frizz!”

“Wow!! I can’t say enough good things! THIS is the texture I’ve always dreamed about having.”

Combine multiple techniques

Calligraphy cuts go great with colored hair, or with stranded fairy hair!

In addition to specializing in calligraphy cuts, I have extensive experience in traditional haircutting techniques, providing you with a variety of options beyond just the calligraphic style.

For special events, try hand-tied single-strand fairy hair!
