Disconnected Retro-Wave Undercut for Thick Hair

Step-by-Step Guide

Designed specifically to control exceptionally heavy hair density, this disconnected undercut pixie hides a short base beneath a crown of vintage waves. Use clippers with a number two guard to crop the lower half of the head, working from the temples down to the lower neck hairline. Leave the top canopy long, measuring approximately four inches, ensuring clear disconnection from the shaved undercut beneath. Apply a heavy setting gel to the wet top section, combing the hair into continuous retro S-waves that lay across the top of the head. Position waving pins along the wave bends to secure the placement. Dry the top canopy thoroughly using a diffuser attachment, then release the pins to allow structured waves to hover over the short perimeter.
