Which type of cut creates a blunt line in the hair?

1. Elevated cut

2. Graduated cut

3. Layered cut

4. One-length cut

The correct answer is: One-length cut

A Elevated cuts are typically used to create volume and movement in the hair. A blunt line is more structured and flat, making elevated cuts less suitable for achieving this type of line. B: Graduated cuts involve cutting sections of hair at a graduated length, meaning the hair will have different lengths throughout. This will not create a blunt line as the lengths will vary. C: Layered cuts involve cutting different lengths of hair throughout the layers, again not creating a straight and blunted line. D: One-length cuts involve cutting all the hair at one length, making it the most suitable option for creating a blunt line. This cut is often used for creating a classic, sleek look.
