I was once in the same place!
After a few years behind the chair, I realised that even though my Sassoon training was excellent, it wasn’t enough. It taught me to cut with just one tool — the straight blade scissor — but it didn’t open the door to true haircutting mastery. I felt limited.
So I developed my own haircutting system — and even designed my own professional tool, the Dare Chisel. For over three decades, I’ve taught this system to thousands of stylists on stage and in workshops. And now, I’m bringing it to you in my new online course, Cut Like a Master.
Inside, you’ll not only learn my proven framework, you’ll also join a private online community where you can connect with me and other stylists walking the same path — so you’re never alone on the journey.
I’ll share the discoveries I’ve made over four decades: practical skills you can use immediately to cut with freedom, creativity, and confidence — without relying on step-by-step formulas.
My approach isn’t driven by trends — it shapes them.
When you begin using ALL the tools in your toolkit and understand the foundational cutting techniques, you can create any style you imagine.
That’s what it means to Cut Like a Master.

— Paul Dare, Founder, Cut Like a Master
Most stylists rely on Step-By-Step haircuts doesn't improve your skills?
Here’s the truth:
- They limit your creativity.
- The service is not personalized.
- You don't learn to adapt to your clients' needs.
- You miss the chance to problem-solve and experiment.
- You can become creatively stifled, and stuck in a cycle of repetition.
- You can’t charge premium prices for a copy-paste service.
- And worst of all? They leave you unprepared for real salon life.
What happens when a client walks in with a photo of a cut you’ve never done before?
Panic.
Self-doubt.
The urge to slip out the back door?
Step-by-step training hasn’t prepared you for this moment — and now, instead of confidently tailoring a look your client will love, you’re just hoping for the best because following a formula doesn’t teach you to think like a Master Stylist — it just teaches you to follow instructions.
Why this course
is different:
This isn’t about copying a haircut. It’s about understanding and mastering the principles of how to cut hair — creating shape, texture, and volume — so you can create anything.
The 5T System:
- You’ll learn the 5 Tools in your Toolkit, master Foundational Cutting Techniques, and transform your Mindset.
- You’ll know how to approach each haircut, no matter what the request.
- You’ll start delivering high-end, bespoke haircuts that reflect each client’s unique needs.
- Client inspo pics? No longer a threat — they become a powerful communication tool.
- You’ll feel confident cutting anyone’s hair, with any tool, at any length or texture.
- And you’ll attract premium clients who value personalized service — and are happy to pay for it.
When you master technique over templates, you stop chasing trends…
And start setting them.
That’s the Dare Philosophy.
That’s what it means to Cut Like a Master.
What is The
5T System?

Dara Cook – Principal Stylist, Dare Hair
From Stuck to Master Stylist!
“Paul breathed life back into my career — just when I thought I was done.”
After more than 30 years in the industry, I found myself feeling stuck and ready to put down my tools for good. Seven years ago, Paul took me under his wing and re-educated me. Learning his cutting techniques and transformative 5T System completely changed the way I approach hairdressing. I’ve rediscovered my passion, and today, I love working as the Principal Stylist at Dare Hair Salon. Paul's education not only transformed my career but also gave me the confidence to tackle any cut with sculptural freedom and creativity. I now feel more inspired, skilled, and in control of my craft than ever before. Not only that, I have recently been appointed to an international leadership role with Hairaid, where I travel to developing countries and teach people living in poverty, the skill of haircutting. This year I went to Indonesia, completing my 6th trip!

Let's talk about some common myths that keep you stuck where you are...
I don't have time to do a course, I'm too busy
The question is... do you have time NOT to? If you’re too busy to invest in your skills now, you’ll stay stuck in the same limiting cycle for longer—Cut Like a Master is designed for progress at your pace, so even small steps will lead to visible results.
It will take too long to see any results
Mastery takes time – and that's the truth. Anyone who tells you otherwise is misleading you. But with the 5T System, you’ll experience quick wins that reignite your passion and shift your mindset. That’s where the real magic begins — and from there, your lifelong journey of creative experimentation unfolds.
It's too expensive...
too risky!
Consider this for a moment. What is the risk of not educating yourself and remaining under-skilled? This leads to lost clients, lower earnings, missed opportunities, lack of confidence, being stuck in repetitive, uninspiring haircuts and worst of all you miss out on realising your true potential.

The Dare Chisel is a revolutionary haircutting tool, made for sculptural freedom, designed by Paul Dare — and used in salons around the world since 2000.
It offers a sculptural alternative to traditional cutting tools.
Lightweight and perfectly balanced, it moves with your hand — reducing strain, preventing fatigue, and helping protect against carpal tunnel, while enhancing flow and control.
Designed to create shape, texture, and volume, the Dare Chisel® gives you the freedom to work with loose guidelines — no need for perfect section patterns.
That means faster cuts, more flow, and a completely different approach to haircutting.
Whether you're face-framing or carving in bold movement, this tool allows you to work intuitively and efficiently.
Haircuts like long layers that once took time become effortless.
You’re not just saving time — you're creating something unique.
The finish? Totally different.
Not a razor. Not a scissor.
The Dare Chisel® gives a choppy, textured look that sets your work apart.
Inspired by industrial blade design and refined for hairstylists, it’s engineered to feel like an extension of your own hand.
With its ergonomic shape and precise balance, you’re in full control — whether detailing or sculpting bold silhouettes.
It’s not just a tool.
It’s one of the 5 Essentials in the Cut Like a Master system.
It’s fun to use — and it changes everything!

Why Cut Like a Master?

Can an online course really teach me to master haircutting? Maybe it will work for some people, but I need face-to-face learning.
We get it — haircutting is a hands-on craft, and many stylists worry that online learning just won’t cut it (pun intended). That’s why Cut Like a Master was built differently.
This isn’t just a series of demo videos. It’s a guided mentorship experience grounded in Paul Dare’s 40+ years of experience in haircutting mastery and education, where you learn the foundational approach and techniques behind every great cut — not just how to copy one.
It’s actually simpler than you think — whilst true mastery is a lifetime journey, by following Paul’s proven 5T System, you can start putting the techniques into practice straight away. And when you do... you’ll see the results. Over time, you just get better and better. This approach is unlike anything you’ve tried before — because it teaches you how to think like a Master Stylist.
You’ll learn how to use every tool in the kit. You’ll see real, unfiltered transformations from Paul's salon. And you won’t be alone — our live group calls give you the chance to ask questions, get clarity, and feel supported, just like you would in a hands-on setting — with the flexibility to learn at your own pace.
You’ll also become part of Masters in the Making — our private online community for stylists committed to excellence. This is where connection deepens, ideas are shared, breakthroughs happen, and you’ll stay inspired and supported long after you begin. Because mastering your craft is easier — and far more fulfilling — when you’re not doing it alone.
What if I can’t make it to one of the live Q&A sessions?
We will put the replays of each session accessible to you inside the course so you can refer back to them at any time.
Why is the Masters in the Making Online Community only accessible to Founding Masters until 26 September, 2025?

Their mission is to ensure that future students like you enter a vibrant, positive, and professionally enriching space — built to shape the next era of Master Stylists in the hair industry.
