What is Specialized Curly Cut's "Sculpting and defining" technique?

"Sculpting and defining" is a technique for cutting and styling curly hair invented, refined and trademarked by Specialized Curly Cut. Taking one section of the hair at a time, the stylist carves or slices with the wave of the curl while maintaining the length of the hair. The result is curls that cup gracefully into each other, instead of stacking out. Caution: Never allow a stylist to "thin-out' or "layer" your curly hair.
