Grooming the cap on long hair

Who is wearing a long haircut cap?

Cutting a cap on long hair is a very original variant, which, it can be said, combines two hairstyles - long hair and a voluminous short haircut. Initially, the classic haircut cap was performed only on short hair, but later it underwent modifications, and has recently been applied even on very long hair.
