Cheekbone-length front pieces worn against length taken down toward the waist, so the step between the two sections is extreme.

Stretching the back out that far exaggerates the step in the cut, since the eye has more distance to travel between the short frame and the ends. The long section is kept blunt at the bottom so both cut lines stay hard. Getting there takes years of growth, and the trade is that the oldest hair at the very bottom thins and needs dusting often to stop the perimeter tapering to a point.
- Suitsoval, square face shapes. Length running unbroken past the jaw carries the eye through a square corner instead of stopping on it, and the front line sits up at the cheekbone, well clear of the jaw.
- Hair typestraight, medium density, thick. Waist-length hair has to stay dense at the ends for the bottom line to hold, so this rewards coarse, straight hair that grows evenly.
- UpkeepDust the length every ten to twelve weeks and recut the front pieces every six, plus regular oiling, because the hair at the bottom is years old.
- Ask forAsk to keep the back one length at the waist and cut only the front sections, straight across at the cheekbone.
