⚡️Can Short Hair be Low-Maintenance?⚡️

Heck yeah! It’s a myth that short hair has to be constantly maintained and can’t continue to look good as it grows out between visits. Let’s get into it a little bit.

It has been engrained in me that what makes a decent barber is how a haircut grows in, not just when a client leaves the chair. I’ve learned (and still learning) a variety of techniques that can help a haircut grow in smoothly and maintain shape over weeks.

Now, I don’t want to work myself out of a job by any means, BUT I do want to give you a cut that will last. Some folks have reservations about having short hair because it’s believed they’ll have to come back every two weeks to three weeks to maintain their cut. The grow out of a haircut is just as important as how it looks when you leave the studio. I want to make sure that you feel as good in your cut in 4 to 6 weeks as you do when you walk out the door.

(Now, I do have clients that prefer to feel fresh every three weeks and I 100% support that too).

Spoiler: product isn’t a requirement for a decent haircut. Product is there to enhance the features of a haircut, not make the haircut. Trust me—you can have texture and volume without having to glob on products.

Overall, it is up to the client how often they wanna come in. Some clients prefer to come in every few weeks because when hair begins to grow over their ears—it drives them bonkers. Some clients like to come in every 8 to 10 weeks and are still able to style their hair how they like. Bottom line is—short hair is able to be low-maintenance, so if you’re worried about the upkeep, know that you have options for a cut that is more low-maintenance.

⚡️You Won’t Hurt My Feelings⚡️

I am here to give you the haircut you want. If there is something you’re not sure about during your haircut, say somethin’. You won’t hurt my feelings.

Feel like something is laying funny? Let me know, I want the opportunity to fix it.

You get home and style your hair yourself and something feels off? Reach out and we can work out a time for you to come in and I’ll figure it out with you.

‘Just dealing with it’ isn’t an option around here. It’s already hard enough to advocate for ourselves. At Grimm Studio, we want you to speak up.

We’ve got you.

✨Hair Has No Gender Here✨

Grimm Studio’s ‘hair has no gender’ philosophy revolves around the idea that everyone should have the freedom to express themselves through their hair, regardless of lame societal expectations. We are passionate about creating rad haircuts that affirm and empower all of our clients. The Dresscode Project has been the pioneer in creating genderless hair spaces and we’re following their leadership.

We strive to break barriers and create a safer space for folks to explore haircuts they have been dying to try out. Having short hair can be incredibly liberating, allowing folks to embrace who they are and feel confident in their identities.

At Grimm Studio, we celebrate existing outside of the box. We understand that each person has their own unique vision for their hair, and we work closely with our clients to bring that vision to life. We value listening attentively, offering guidance, and collaborating with you to create a haircut that not only looks amazing but also feels affirming.

We take pride in creating a welcoming and cozy environment where everyone feels comfortable and respected. Our goal is to empower our clients to embrace their truest selves and feel confident in their aesthetic. We believe that everyone deserves to have a hairstyle that makes them feel amazing, regardless of the absurd societal expectations and lame gender norms.

We are here to provide you with rad haircuts that affirm your identity and help you express yourself with joy. Join us in breaking free from the limitations of traditional gendered haircuts and let your hair be an affirming reflection of who you are.
