    This actually helped as a cosmotology student, my teacher didn’t really explain this all that well this I feel gives me the actual concepts/techniques that I would use instead of just a sigular haircut idk if that makes sense but this is very helpful:)

    Hey Salon Guy! Guy here, thanks you for the great tutorial! You seem like a natural at teaching, easy to listen to and understand. I’m preparing to cut my beautiful gf’s hair and it’s so long and nice and I was quite afraid of effing it up on her but thanks to you and this video I’m feeling the confidence in my soul now! She seems to be less worried now too! Cheers 🙏💇‍♀️✅

    Oh dear. I am so unbelievably thrilled to have found you, this video and the video you made about layering the back of your own hair. My Covid hair journey has taken me on a wild ride and I am pretty sure I have made every classic mistake. (Which is actually hugely helpful for learning!) I don't know why it wasn't "clicking" before when I watched other tutorials or cheat videos. Now I understand. I did a couple of layers to take the hideous weight out of the back of my hair and can't wait to really take my time and try this. Instant lightbulb moment. Thank you!

    After watching this (again) I was able to do this cut on myself and it came out really good! I mean it took a long time because my hair was wet and it took a while to make sure everything was even but your tips helped to make sure everything came out nice and even! Thank you! Keep up the great videos!

    @pmc2737 6 років тому +87

    Some helpful notes, I hope:
    1) pull camera back to view entire cut, so you don't have to stop and move it up or down, easier for viewer.
    2) yes, too much info in one video, becomes confusing because there are three different cuts on one head at one time, transitions are so quickly illustrated.
    3) perhaps make several 'How to Make Layers' videos and name it accordingly, such as Layers, part 1- Sides; Layers part 2- Bangs/Front ; Layers part 3- Short, Medium & Long; Layers- part 4- Thick or Wispy; Layers part 5- What Works, What Doesn't ... etc.
    4) This could be like a teaching class and still stay on an every other day schedule.
    Your instructions are easy to understand, just slow down a little. Just my suggestions as a viewer, not a pro like you. Thanks so much!

Can you do a video explaining this and what not to do that will create steps when cutting layers. This especially happens with thick hair. Thanks for all your videos.

    @samuelalbritton2224 8 років тому

    This is the video I needed. If there is a way you can think of to make this video even better, do it. I've watched it about ten times now. I'm taking alot away from it. If you can ever think of what else we need to know or could improve the video with even more of your knowledge on the subject, do it. I've got cutting guys down. Understanding what I'm doing with girls has been a different story. I've watched you other layer cut videos and they are good but this made them make alot of sense. I like when you show us what we could have done and what it does when we do make certain cuts vs the other. doing something because you tell us vs us knowing why we are doing it is huge. Anything else on the subject of layers, would be huge in my career as well as others I assume. Thanks loads. I appreciate every bit of you time. You the man

    I am glad you put your videos on UA-cam so I can learn what I need to ask for from my stylist. I have a question if you have a video on how the bottom line is cut straight across on medium length hair. I always have a problem because I have lot of hair in the back, that ends up being an issue because all the hair cut straight across ends up being a thick heavy bottom line and I would like to know the name of the technique or layering I need to ask for. I think each section can be cut maybe a millimeter different in length, would that make sense? I usually ask the stylist to take off the heaviness when it is dry, then they point cut the h*** out of it and I don't like the end result...... What is a better way to do it?

However, standard layering techniques don't seem to work for my hair, which is very very thick and pretty long, and I don't want short layers/wispiness. My stylist has to pull some wizardry type moves to keep my hair from getting a huge block/chunk because of my side part... :/ Do you have any suggestions, other than thinning shears? Thanks again! Really appreciate your videos.

    @spiritedswamp9 4 роки тому

    At the back of the head- if I chose to do the layers how you first described by cutting your guide and then taking horizontal sections and lifting them up, do you recommend to do the same when you go to layer the front? Or switch to round layers in the front? Mainly focusing on the section by the ear to avoid making it look too skinny. Seems like that’s what you were saying.

  • @freedomdove
    @freedomdove 9 років тому

    Thanks so much for your helpful videos. I've sent them to my hairdresser and she likes them, too. :) Could a stylist use your layering techniques, except for starting at the front? I have collarbone-length hair right now (all one length) with long side bangs. It's too heavy and thick for me and I want to have it layered. I think the most appropriate length for the first layer might be the shortest pieces up front, but am unsure if that would be too short for layering. Can she start up front and use my bangs to find/create the guideline? How would she proceed after that? I presume she could go in the opposite fashion you go in the video and do the top first then blend in the sides and then work around to the back. Does that sound alright or would you do it differently? Also, do you think the bangs are too short for a layering guideline (the shortest pieces fall just below my mouth)?
    Thanks again. :) If you're taking video requests, I definitely would like to see a layer cut on hair that is all one length with long side bangs, using the bangs for the guideline. ;) I have my next appointment in two weeks. :P Lol.

    thats a lot easier for me to understand, we have learnt to do frame the face layer using the 6 o'clock 12 o'clock method , but the elbow higher up the shorter layers you will get, is a lot better to understand thanks. can i ask, do i always have to do a frame the face layer as a guide before i start doing the rest of layering at the back? or can i just start at the back like you done?
