Which type of haircut has hair coming to one hanging level, often used to create a sleek look?

1. Blunt cut

2. Clipper cut

3. Graduated cut

4. Shag cut

The correct answer is: Blunt cut

A blunt cut is a type of haircut where the hair is cut straight across, creating a uniform length. This is often used to create a sleek, polished look as the hair hangs evenly and appears to be one length. B A clipper cut is a type of haircut that uses clippers to cut the hair to a desired length. This typically creates a more textured and versatile look, as opposed to a sleek and uniform one. C: A graduated cut is a layered haircut where the hair is cut at different lengths to create volume and texture. This is not typically used to achieve a sleek look as the hair is not cut to one even level. D: A shag cut is a layered and choppy haircut, usually with longer layers on top and shorter pieces underneath. This is also not typically used to achieve a sleek look as the hair is cut to different lengths and has a more textured appearance.
