HOW TO HIDE A BLUNT CUT

Struggling to hide your blunt thick hair? You're not alone. A blunt cut can leave hair looking heavy and one-dimensional, making it harder to blend in extensions or add volume naturally. The good news is that with the right technique - and the right hair extensions - you can disguise a blunt cut in minutes and create a seamless, natural finish.

Here's our step-by-step guide to hiding a blunt cut using the Hair Choice Backstage Hairpiece.

STEP ONE: Section your hair just above the ears

STEP TWO: Backcomb and twist for extra grip. Plait and clip away the bottom section of your hair to create a clean base.

STEP THREE: Clip in your Backstage Hairpiece directly onto the twisted section. The weight of the piece helps anchor it in place.

STEP FOUR: Release your natural hair over the top and style to blend seamlessly with the extension.

The key to hiding a blunt cut is layering - your natural hair sits on top of the extension, which adds length and movement underneath and breaks up that hard blunt line. The result is a finish that looks like your hair naturally grows that way.

Why extensions work for blunt cuts

Blunt cuts tend to look heavy because all the weight falls at one length. Hair extensions add graduation - lighter, longer pieces underneath create the illusion of natural layering without any cutting. This is especially effective with weft and clip-in styles, where you can control exactly where the weight and length are added.

Which Hair Choice extension is best for hiding a blunt cut?

The Backstage One Piece Clip-In is purpose-built for this kind of styling. Its wide weft base covers a large surface area, making it ideal for blending with blunt or heavy hair. It clips in under your natural hair in seconds and the tapered ends create a graduated finish that disguises the blunt line completely.

For thicker hair, the All Access 4 Piece Clip-In gives you more coverage and allows you to build layers from underneath - perfect if your blunt cut is particularly dense or if you want to add significant length.

Tips for a seamless blend

Backcombing the root area before clipping in creates grip and stops the extension slipping throughout the day. Once clipped in, use a wide-tooth comb or paddle brush to blend your natural hair over the top. For the most natural finish, curl both your natural hair and the extension together so the textures match completely.
