It may seem that cutting straight lines is the easiest and the best way to cut your artificial turf. However, the chances of creating visible seams and a mohawk effect can be high. 

The best way to cut artificial grass is with a serpentine (s-seam) cut.  

With an s-seam, the results improve in several ways: 

• S-seams hide the seam area by blending the pattern and color of the artificial grass 
• S-seams are less prone to the mohawk effect than straight cuts 
• S-seams are less visible than straight seams, especially on large areas of the turf. 

While much more beneficial than straight cuts, s-seams are harder to implement. They require special tools and a professional approach. If you want to take advantage of invisible seams, you may need to consider hiring artificial turf installation experts.
