Let $\mathbb {D}\subset \mathbb {C}$ be the unit disk and let $\gamma_{1},\gamma _{2}:[0,T]\to\overline{\mathbb {D}}\setminus\{0\}$ be parametrizations of two slits $\Gamma_{1}:=\gamma(0,T], \Gamma_{2}:=\gamma_{2}(0,T]$ such that $\Gamma_{1}$ and $\Gamma_{2}$ are disjoint.

We verify a long-standing conjecture of Nazarov, Treil, and Volberg.
