The Cowgirl Cut, like many on-trend cuts these days, comes in an array of end results ranging from long to short, scissor-cut to razor-cut. The common denominators are soft shaggy layers that lead to a solid perimeter, with minimal fringe details,” explained Jesse Linares, Sam Villa ArTeam Member.
Who is the Cowgirl Cut Good For?
This cut is designed to be low-maintenance and exploit the natural texture of hair. Its just-off-the-shoulder shape is designed for those with fine to medium density and texture that requires minimal styling. For those with high density hair, or hair with challenging texture, it is recommended to leave more length – resulting in a longer shag.

Effortlessly chic Brits like Victoria Beckham, Alexa Chung and Sienna Miller and Kaia Gerber, also had a version before she went blonde.
5 Questions to Ask Before Razor Cutting the Cowgirl Cut on a Guest:
- Does the face shape and physiology support a haircut with a strong perimeter above the shoulder?
- Does their hair type and texture support a minimal “wash-and-go” hairstyling regimen?
- Does the guest understand how they’ll need to style their hair, and with which products and tools?
- Will this person’s hair style respond well to razor techniques, or would the use of a shear be more appropriate?
- Can time be made to educate the guest on what they’ll need to know to style the cut on their own?
