WHAT IS
CALLIGRAPHY CUT?
Simply put: Calligraphy Cut is revolutionizing the way we cut hair.

Tell Me More...
The pen uses three patented angles to maximize the amount of surface area created at the end of every strand. Each and every hair strand gets a super healthy cut- one that has more bounce, shine, and movement than even the sharpest pair of scissors.
​
Your hair will be healthier, have more volume, be easier to style, shinier, bouncier, and just all around more amazing!

Created by Frank Brormann in Germany about 10 years ago, the Calligraphy Pen is a revolutionary new tool that maximizes the potential in your hair.
Frank was inspired to create the Calligraphy Pen when he was cutting flower stems at his home. He realized that a scissors pinches the stems, while a super sharp chef's knife at an angle yielded a fresher and wider cut. The flowers stayed healthier for longer and had beautiful blooms. He then thought that perhaps this concept could be applied to haircutting.
​
When people think of a razor cut, often there is a lot of negative perception. Sometimes for good reason! A traditional razor tends to shred the hair, and clients often remark on the lack of healthy feeling from razor cuts. The Calligraphy Pen is a blade, but the patented angle allows for hair to be cut in the healthiest fashion possible. The difference can be seen in the microscopic images.
I'm intrigued... But is it right for me?
The short answer... yes!
​
Calligraphy Cut can be customized and tailored to your needs! For those with fine hair, lots of movement and volume can be added to the style. Unruly thick hair? Calligraphy Cut can be used to remove bulk and collapse the shape without damaging or shredding hair. Curls? Calligraphy Cut can be used to sculpt and add shine to curls. Whatever your hair type, Calligraphy Cut can be used to enhance your style and create effortless, beautiful hair.
HOW DID YOU GET INTO CALLIGRAPHY CUT?
I was approached in 2017 as a part of a small group of people at the Minnesota salon I was working at to attend a three day education program from this "new & exciting" hair cutting technique, Calligraphy Cut.
​
I admit, I was a skeptic at first. It's just a glorified razor cut... right?
I could not have been more mistaken! Calligraphy Cut is revolutionary in the way we cut hair, and can create so many varied and gorgeous results in hair. Time after time, I was impressed with the results and creative freedom Calligraphy Cut allowed me to have as a hairstylist.
After the initial Black Star Calligraphy Cut training, I opted to continue on and complete their Silver & eventually Gold level trainings. Now I provide one of the only & most advanced Calligraphy Cut services in the Midwest.
​
I've had clients travel from far & wide for the Calligraphy Cut, not just Minnesotans! All the way from North & South Dakota, Iowa, Missouri, Virginia, Wisconsin, and beyond! It really IS worth the hype!
