Cédric en particulier !

Hairdresser for 14 years, I have always worked for independent salons in the provinces, then I was a trainer for an American brand for 5 years and manager for 7 years for a Parisian company. Seven years ago, I met a woman who had curly hair and she asked me to cut it dry, because the result on wet hair did not reflect her daily styling: it clicked. It's true that it's quite logical to cut dry hair with their everyday styling, and since then I only cut on dry hair for all types of textures: straight, curly, Afro, Asian... because in the end it's the hair that guides me during the cut and not imposed by me.

Since November 2016, I receive my clients at the workshop of Daphne NARCY (hairstyling influencer) at 60 rue Saint Sabin, Parie 11ème, in an intimate and confidential setting.
The client must carry out, before our appointment, her hair ritual, and style her hair as usual, which allows me to be as accurate as possible when I cut dry; it's a sure thing and the client will have no surprises when she shampoos and when she styles her hair. The appointment lasts between 45min and 1h, there is only the client and me, which allows me to be focused only on her. I take the time to listen, to understand, to know her "capillary" and to realize her desires (if they are suitable). I receive by appointment only, from Wednesday to Saturday and 2 Sundays per month by appointment only

I think they are feared by hairdressers because when you start learning to cut on hair, the training is done on wet hair. We usually train on models with fairly straight hair, we have to create clean separations and have good tension to cut. 
When a client with curly hair walks through the door of the salon, we don't know how to deal with this texture that we haven't seen in training. I would rather have a hairdresser tell the client that they don't know how to cut this type of hair and the result is mediocre. The client will be very disappointed and will spend months letting it grow back. A haircut seems trivial but it is powerful: it is a character trait, it is a hair garment in which one must feel comfortable. A bad haircut (or color) can have an impact on your self-confidence in front of others.
A cut on dry hair allows to avoid the triangular shape (often the result of a cut made on wet hair) and to obtain an oval shape, which is the most harmonious shape.

Having curly hair requires a beauty ritual composed of several steps and time. A curly texture is a dehydrated hair, which is a good point to avoid washing too much. I remind you that a shampoo is for the scalp, and the care for the hair.
Doing a bath of coconut oil, jojoba, avocado, etc., can be done once or twice a month for a deep hydration. Masks or treatments can be applied to dry hair before shampooing for a more beneficial effect, with the longest possible pause.

It is useless to superimpose styling products because it suffocates the hair. It is important to choose products according to the nature of the hair. The Haircare spray in the morning is great to rehydrate the hair and discipline the frizz by adding a few drops of Multi-use care Oil in your hands and put them on your hair. Drying can be done with a diffuser with a warm or cold heat and at medium speed for maximum volume and not to dry completely so that the curls "set", or in the open air.
The maintenance of the cut on dry hair can be done every 4 months.

It all depends on the client's desires, the choice of being able to change the head: natural or smooth while protecting the hair fiber from the heat of the styling appliances. I prefer that the client blow-dry her hair with a brush and hair dryer, which closes the hair's scales and reflects the shine, rather than quickly drying it without a brush and then straightening it, because that's how the hair is sensitized - or leaving it natural with the appropriate styling products.
