What is a common use for a spray bottle during haircutting?

A spray bottle is commonly used in haircutting primarily to keep hair moist and manageable. Keeping hair damp is essential because it allows for more precise cutting, making it easier to see the hair’s natural fall and movement. Moist hair can be manipulated more easily, which is beneficial when creating different shapes and styles. Additionally, cutting hair while it is wet can prevent split ends and gives a more polished finish, as the stylist can see how the hair behaves when it's in its natural state.

While the other uses are valid in various contexts, the focus on moisture management directly correlates with the technique and accuracy of haircutting. Applying hair products evenly or styling hair into place can also be performed with a spray bottle, but these applications are secondary to maintaining the hair's condition and ease of cutting during the actual haircutting process. Creating volume typically involves styling techniques rather than the use of a spray bottle.
