Why it can work
The precise, squared-off line makes a strong first impression and photographs cleanly, which is why it reads as a statement cut rather than a safe one.

Texture fit
Best carried by straight and wavy hair, where the sharp corners of the shape hold their line most clearly.
Daily effort and upkeep
Medium upkeep — the corners need a trim every 6–10 weeks to stay crisp, with 5–10 minutes of daily styling, usually a flat iron, to keep the line graphic.
One real trade-off
Because the whole look depends on sharp, blunt corners, any texture shift — a humid day, a wave creeping in — softens the geometry the cut is built around.
