Setting the part two or three fingers off center piles most of the hair onto one side, which builds root height on the heavy side and drops the other into a clean fall behind the ear. The sweep travels diagonally across the forehead rather than dropping straight down. Hair trained to a center part drifts back for the first week, so blow-dry the root against the new direction to break the habit.

  • Suitsround, square, oval face shapes. The sweep crosses the brow on a slant, so the eye stops measuring the face against its own midline and a round or square outline looks narrower.
  • Hair typefine, medium density, straight, wavy. Fine hair gains a little root lift from the deep part, while very thick hair piles up on the heavy side and needs internal weight removed.
  • UpkeepShape it up every eight to ten weeks, and lift the part with a dryer and your fingers each morning so it does not collapse flat.
  • Ask forAsk for one length cut to the shoulder and have the part set deep, roughly above the arch of your brow.
