Wet Hair Hides How It Falls. We Cut Dry.
Tomy cuts hair dry because wet hair lies flat against the head and changes shape as it dries. Cutting dry reveals exactly how your hair moves, falls, and frames your face — so the cut you see in the chair is the cut you actually live in at home.

Why Clients Choose Us for Dry Haircuts
Frequently Asked
Why do you cut hair dry?
Wet hair lies flat against the head and changes shape as it dries — so a wet cut hides exactly how your hair will actually fall. Cutting dry shows us in real time how each section moves, where your natural part falls, and how the cut will frame your face. The result you see in the chair is the result you walk out with.
How long does a dry haircut take?
A precision dry haircut typically takes 45–60 minutes. That includes a thorough consultation, the cut itself, and a final dry-style review. If you’re adding a blowout, plan for an additional 20–30 minutes.
Do you cut men’s hair dry too?
Yes — dry cutting works just as well for men’s hair, especially for shape, texture, and graceful grow-out. Tomy cuts both men and women dry using the same precision technique. See the men’s hair salon page for more.
What if I want a wet cut?
We’re a dry-cutting salon by philosophy — it’s how Tomy achieves the precision and lasting shape his clients return for. If you have a strong preference for wet cutting, we’d recommend a stylist whose technique matches what you’re looking for.
How often should I get a dry haircut?
Most clients return every 6–8 weeks for shape maintenance. Because dry cuts grow out cleanly without harsh lines, many clients can stretch to 10–12 weeks without losing the look — especially when paired with regular lipid treatments.
