French or English Hair Cutting
French cutting is based on sculpturing, it is a free hand carving out of hair to the finished detail. It is soft and feminine with flow and movement. It has a natural design by free hand cutting to the contours of the head. It's more cutting by feel or by eye. Scissors and electric clippers or razors are used and any tapering or thining is done after the hair has been dryed. I can do such haircuts in ten to fifteen minutes, by that time the cut is almost dry and very little blow drying without a brush and you have a wash & wear free flowing cut.
English haircutting on the other hand is more like stacking lego blocks, section by section until you have a completed block. The diamond cut which is a Vidal Sassoon technique from the 60s is based very much on architecture, it works very much on the pattern of a spiders web. If you can imagine a spiders web in 3D you can see the lines and sections used in this technique. I find the diamond cut works well on layering and bobs. Blow drying also follows the same routine.
I am not suggesting one is better then the other, French may not suit some people or vise versa. I use both techniques and have also introduced my own style. I cut hair while its flipped over or I may fade with electric clippers on a finished cut whether its long or short.
I do marry my techniques with French and English cutting but as I never use a brush and blow wave by hand, my clients have a maintenance free hair cut that they can manage without any fuss.
French cutting is more widely used on the continent and New York. Here in Sydney it is 90% English cutting. French cutting is a technique rarely taught in Australia and knowing both techniques is of a great advantage.
You can view a good example of French cutting ---Of all places--- on a Vidal Sassoon TV commercial I did on www.voihaircuts.com.au

What a good way to introduce a dog to a cat and vise verse?
My husbands co-worker brings his little toy poodle over when he visits but Rufus,(Poodles name) thinks my kitties are fun toys. He doesn't try to hurt them or attack them but he plays ruff and in return my kitties (One is a 16 pound Ragdoll and the other is a Main Coon and he weights 20 pounds) So I am really just worried about little Rufus.
So if there is anything I can do to get Rufus to be softer with the kitties?
Any advice or suggestions will be helpful.
Thank you
Sorry I forgot to add that my kitties slap, bite and even sometimes sit on Rufus.
My cats look like monsters compared to Rufus
well, i have definitely been in a similar predicament. i initially had 2 cats as pets, but wanted dogs as well. over time i have adopted 3 dogs from various shelters (a cairn terrier, a german shepherd, and a pomeranian), all of which are now friends with my cats. i would try to familiarize the pets with one another by sitting on the floor, positioning the pets near one another, and petting a cat with one hand and a dog with the other, demonstrating equal treatment of all pets. i would distribute treats to the dogs and cats at the same time and enforce an assertive "play nice" rule. if the dogs ever tried treating the cats like play toys i would use body language (stand between dog and cat) and utter a firm "no" with a touch to the dogs hip area, to teach the dog that the cat needed space and that such behavior wouldnt be tolerated. ultimately with enough time and positive re-encorcement, all of my animals have become great friends. they share food and toys and totally respect one another. its a matter of good ownership as well as the animals just using their instincts to get used to each other. good luck!
