Etymology

The term 'razoring' derives from the word 'razor,' which comes from the Middle French 'raseor,' meaning to shave. The art of using a razor for cutting hair has roots that can be traced back to ancient times. As hairstyles evolved, so did the tools and techniques used by barbers and stylists. Razoring as a specific technique gained popularity in the late 20th century, particularly with the rise of less structured and more casual styles. Over the years, skilled hairstylists have honed this technique, integrating it into modern hairstyling practices. Today, razoring is recognized as a valuable method for adding texture and movement to hair, allowing for greater creativity and expression in hairstyling.
