Sculpting Theory
Basic Forms
Sculpting Tools
Distribution
Texturizing Techniques
100
The artistic carving or removing of hair lengths to create various forms and shapes.
What is Sculpting
100
Created by the concentration of length withing a given area.
What is Weight
100
Produce a clean, blunt edge.
What is Shears
100
The direction the hair assumes as it falls naturally from the head due to gravity
What is natural distribution
100
The tips of straight shears are moved from the fingers toward the ends to create subtle irregular lengths
What is Pointing
200
The arrangement of lengths across the curves of the head.
What is Stucture
200
Consists of lengths that progress from shorter in the exterior to longer in the interior.
What is Solid form
200
Produce a distinct and regular alternation of shorter and longer lengths.
What are Taper shears
200
The hair is combed at a 90 degree from its base parting
What is Perpendicular distribution
200
Gliding the opens shears along the surface of the hair to achieve mobility.
What is Slicing
300
The length or level to which the hair falls on the anatomy.
What is Natural Fall
300
Consists of shorter exterior lengths that gradually progress toward longer interior lengths.
What is Graduated Form
300
Produces tapering or and angled effect on the end of each stand, which results in more mobility and a softer form line.
What is a Razor
300
The hair is combed out of natural distribution in any direction except perpendicular to its base parting
What is shifted distribution
300
Technique in which slightly closed shears slide along the stand to prouduce a rapid length increase.
What is slide cutting
400
The hair is viewed abstractly as if it were projected at a 90 degree angle from various curves of the head.
What is Normal Projection
400
consists of shorter interior lengths that progress toward longer exterior lengths.
What is Increased -layered form
400
Create clean, precise, lines or a s soft, broom-like effect.
What are Clippers.
400
The hair is distributed in a vertical, horizontal or diagonal direction
What is Directional distribution.
400
The ends of the hair are curved into with a razor using a back and forthe motion
What is Razor Ethching
500
The hair is viewed as if it is standing out from the head in order to indentify the structure and how it was created.
What is Abstract
500
Has consistent lengths throughout the design
What is uniformly layered form
500
Used to distibute and control the hair before, and sometimes during sculpting.
What is a comb.
500
Also know as elevation
What is Projection
500
Creates irregular lengths, usually for a chunkier texture along the hair ends
What is Notching technique
