The classic haircut "Sessun" became fashionable in Paris at the end of the 19th century thanks to the English hairdresser Vidal Sessun. In those days, she looked very unusual, effectively emphasizing the natural beauty and natural volume of hair. A square with clear rectangular lines was named in honor of its creator. Externally, “sessun” can be compared with a “page” haircut. They are similar in smooth lines and regular geometric shapes.
With the advent of this haircut, all fashionistas of that time rushed to their hairdressers, demanding to do the same hairstyle. They did not take into account the fact that it might not suit them. As a result, when they saw the result, they became discouraged, as the lush and clear contours of the face did not adorn everyone. Only with the advent of thinning scissors in 1920 did it become possible to adapt the sessun to each face type.
The famous supermodel Twiggy in the 1960s reintroduced Sessun into fashion. Corporate bright makeup, thinness and expressive short haircut made her forever popular not only in the modeling business, but throughout the beauty industry.
Modern hairdressers do not forget the traditional way of cutting, but thanks to the appearance of new tools, such as thinning scissors, they give it fresh shades of modernity and make it universal for any type of hair and face shape.
Sessun haircut suits stylish and bright girls who are not afraid to stand out in the crowd, because it is impossible to wear such a hairstyle and go unnoticed.

Hair begins to cut from the lowest strands of the occipital sector. One strand is taken, cut to a certain level. She will set the total length, all the hair in the back is aligned under her. Then the front part is freed from pins.
