Textured Taper Mullet

The Textured Taper Mullet is a modern, commercial take on the classic cut, combining the softness and movement achieved with a Chinese razor with the precision of low tapers at the front. The course demonstrates how to transform the classic form into a hairstyle with strong texture, natural volume, and deliberate disconnection that is easy for the client to style on a daily basis.

Kamil Cesarski guides you through the entire haircut creation process, starting with an analysis of the head shape and adjusting the sections to the client’s anatomy. Step by step, he demonstrates how to build a square shape in the lower occipital area to create volume, and then work in a circular motion on the upper section, combining horizontal and vertical sections. A key element is working with the Chinese razor—from controlling the tension of the strand to the angle of the cut—to achieve the characteristic softness and fluidity of the form.

In this course, you'll learn:

• A step-by-step guide to Chinese knife work – how to control the angle and pressure to achieve soft, malleable tips without losing control of the shape
• Creating a square shape at the back of the head, with one section swept to the side to add volume on the sides
• I worked on creating a square shape at the top, sweeping all the strands back to create a deliberate contrast with the sides
• The complete process of creating low tapers at the front: starting with a 3 mm attachment, through an aggressive transition with a 1.5 mm attachment, and finishing with a trimmer
• How analyzing a client’s natural hair texture and skull shape helps in designing a hairstyle that is easy to style
• Guidelines for styling bangs and customizing your haircut using a deep-channel cut for a perfect fit to your face
• The correct position of your body and hands so that your hair falls in the desired direction right away, minimizing the need for adjustments

After this course, you’ll be able to use a Chinese razor with confidence—not just for texturizing, but for shaping the entire haircut. You’ll learn to control disconnection as a compositional element and create modern, textured mullets that combine the precision of tapers with organic, natural movement in the hair on top and in the back.
