Ireland: Side-Cutting

"Irish women are prone to pouffy hair, due to its naturally coarse and kinky texture," says Dempsey, who uses a "slide cutting" technique to help battle the bulk: Hold scissors at an angle and finely cut the hair an inch from the root down to the middle of the hair shaft to create softness and movement. Actress Saoirse Ronan, who calls the Emerald Isle home, creates shiny, touchable curls by working with her hair's native texture.
