My visit to a coastal salon made me switch up cut techniques

I used to stick with blunt cuts for most clients, thinking they gave a clean look. During a beach vacation, I popped into a small salon known for textured styles. The stylist there showed me how layers work with salt air and wind. She explained that blunt ends can look heavy and flat in humid, breezy spots. I tried her method on my own hair and loved the movement it had. Back at my shop, I started offering more layered cuts for clients near the water. It has really helped their hair look better between visits. Have you found local weather changes how you cut hair?

But does the weather honestly matter that much for a haircut? I get that salt air might change how hair sits, but are we overthinking this? People move around all day between AC and outside, so how can one cut work for all of that? It just seems like making a simple thing way more complex than it needs to be.

Ngl, this overthinking happens with everything now.
