Many of us stay blunt, even though we need layers, because we can't find a stylist who knows a variety of layering techniques & what to apply to who 🙄

[@lblincoe2094]

I see so many comments here saying it already, but I have to say it again, you are a wonderful teacher! Incredibly detailed and thorough, yet simply stated and to the point, plenty of repetition without feeling repetitive, it's so easy to follow and understand what you're demonstrating. That gift is not to be underestimated! Thank you for sharing it with us!

Even the hair is isolated these days.

I absolutely love your video’s! Your explanations are great & easy to follow & it makes sense. You’r a fantastic Teacher!

It's hard to see the shapes of the layering because of the dark hair coloring and shots not always up close.

I feel like I'm back in cosmetology school watching this and I love that

"Support you from behind-the-chair." Aw, that's clever. Skilled teacher and great attention to detail. 😊 Suggestion: before and after photos (or video clips) at end and in the thumbnail would be powerful!

Hello Sam, I went to Cosmo school with you ... I run across your products at beauty supply and now ran across this vid. So impressive and I congratulate you for all you've achieved. You are super talented, and were always ala Mr. Precision cutter I well remember. Your teaching in this video is precise and thorough. Kudos. Be well, Gwenn Jones.

I need you to cut my hair... where can I find someone with these skills

[@fluffypink6217]

I just want to say thank you. I restyle old wigs into newer styles. Specifically Irish dance wigs. I am currently working on a wig for a cancer patient. I needed to learn how to cut layers. I watched your video until I memorized it. Then I watched it some more! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! I

Fantastic video showing me the technicals of a true layered bob. My salon overbooks and then when I ask for more layering it is done in 3 minutes. Now I can do my own to my taste. I cut my own hair during the pandemic lockdown and did a good job. After watching this video I am now confident enough to cut my own hair and put in the feathering/layering myself. Thank you so much for this video. You are truly appreciated because are a true stylist and excellent teacher.

Absolutely the most beautiful haircut! What a classic. That style will never age. Love it! Thank you!!!!

[@taraduddy7687]

I love the comb trick, laying the spine of the comb over the parting and combing straight up, that way you aren't overdirecting. I agree that the inconsistencies are caused by the comb as well. Thanks for the great video!

[@dianequinn4115]

Absolutely beautiful, another clear , great explanation of dry cutting , use of comb and technique. Many thanks.

[@mbsweettime]
