What Is the Mizani Aircut? The Ultimate Haircut for Curly and Wavy Hair

Jan 29, 2026

Curly and wavy hair can become weighed down and unruly without the right haircutting technique. The Mizani Aircut, developed by Tippi Shorter, Mizani’s Global Artistic Director, offers a unique, solution-based approach that creates lift and movement in your curls. This curl-by-curl method places each curl precisely where it needs to be, resulting in beautifully defined, bouncy curls.

Designed for Texture

Unlike traditional haircuts that are often performed on wet hair, the Mizani Aircut is done on dry hair in its natural state. This allows the stylist to see how each curl or wave naturally behaves and cut accordingly. Each curl is placed intentionally, creating a shape that works with your texture rather than forcing it into unnatural positions.

By cutting where the hair naturally falls, the Mizani Aircut enhances curl definition while maintaining softness and movement.

Volume, Movement, and Styling Versatility

One of the defining features of the Mizani Aircut is the creation of air pockets within the hair. These pockets add volume and flexibility without excessive layering or thinning, giving textured hair a lighter, more dynamic feel.

Because the cut is fully customized to your unique curl pattern and lifestyle, the results are consistent and easily replicable at future appointments. The Mizani Aircut is also known for its versatility, allowing you to wear your hair curly, wavy, or straight while maintaining shape and balance in every style.
