Our approach
Meet Arous
Arous Parker is a master and former national lead educator in the Sahag method of dry cutting, created and perfected by the legendary John Sahag.
It takes years of training and practice to master the art of dry cutting, and at Arous you will work with only the best craftspeople in this incredible, artistic technique.
Arous has been dry cutting for forty years, for much of that career sharing her time between Manhattan, NY and her personal studio in East Greenwhich, RI. She’s styled for runways, weddings, artistic projects, and for her dense portfolio of personal clients stretching across the east coast.
She now leads her own academy of Drycutting through her studio in Rhode Island — educating the future generation in the Sahad method of dry cutting.

decades of unparalleled experience
Arous and her educational team have led upscale hair salons worldwide in bringing the dry cut method to discriminating stylists and their clients. In these small group Master Series trainings, we will mentor the unique artistry you bring to the Studio. You will leave with:
—a finer ability to visualize every shape for each of your individual clients
—more deeply developed abilities to actualize the hair and style that fits and enhances a client’s lifestyle and personality
—the skills to work more closely and creatively with your clients to give them beautiful hair that falls naturally into place with less upkeep and maintenance
“This academy made my career BOOM! This method lasts much, much longer than and makes other traditional methods look like they are from the stone ages! Welcome to the future of hair shaping! I now have 100% client retention, bigger sales, better results, and not to mention an amazing hair cut by Arous herself.”
