Not every stylist had the wonderful benefit of being properly trained on cutting techniques AND communicating to execute exactly what the client wants..... that is a skill and a gift.... I love this haircut too.... hopefully you find someone to cut it perfectly for you
It took me forever to find someone that could properly do it, even around 2006! lmao once I found her, I've stayed with that same person since then, even though I now live an hour and 45 minutes away🤣 she's also VERY cheap! It's like 15-20$
@slididn :p really? I wanted to do it today but I don’t have any hair si scissors and I was tempted to do it with regular scissors but I wasn’t sure. Do you recommend it? 🥺
I've been cutting my own hair for 20 years. I've had everything, from a mohican to long and wavy, but this haircut was the best, quickest, most satisfying, thanks to this great tutorial. Sectioning is magic. Thank you so much.
Yes I hope this is coming back,I have long hair,my hairdresser cut my hair into a shag a few years ago and I had so many compliments some younger girls wanted this cut too
I've debated on cutting my hair into a shag for a literal year now, but I finally did it. Best decision I've made in a while. Highly HIGHLY recommend, especially for wavy-hair gals, because the waves are poppin' my dudes.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I’m in cosmetology school but we’re closed due to COVID and you have been helping me maintain my education! I did this haircut on a friend today and it turned out amazing! You’re so thorough and a wonderful instructor!
I'm in some local "what's going on in (insert your city state)" facebook groups. Periodically someone will post a photo of a style she wants and ask who can do it. If you have such a fb group in your area you could ask who can razor cut a shag and paste in the video link. I liked this cut a lot until he fluffed it up too much. I grew up in the '60s and '70s and my mom kept me in pixis. I always wanted a shag.
Sure, go and show your stylist and then see if she even gives a thought to sectioning it. The most sectioning I experienced in the past 10 years, it was in two...in the middle.
Thats the thing here ! My shag was so bad that I went to shave my hair and started wearing wigs! It’s at a short length now but could do the shag. I have thick wavy hair and did wear a shag back in the 70’s but nowadays you can’t find a stylist that knows anything about a shag and even the older stylists don’t know!
love it! Ive been a hairdresser for 45 years. This is a much more beautiful shag than the 70's version, Just the right amount of weight & waves, prettier and softer. thank you for the inspiration
Beautiful. I learned this cut in the 70’s. No one these days know what a Shag is. Great for an active life. I have wavy hair and it fits me perfect. Thanks for EDUCATING NEW HAIR CUTTERS, DEE ALSO... RAZOR CUT
I've had a stylist tell me that layers like that weren't possible. Now I just gotta find someone who can do this for me. :) Thank you so much for going into such detail about the sectioning!! that was super informative!
Matt. You are the only one so far I have come across who speaks to same hair terminology as I have taught from my instructor from my college. I always spend a lot of time sectioning first and then cut, but a lot of barbers, stylists and clients complained about me for doing so. They always acted impatient about the sectioning part and insisted and instructed me to cut without sectioning.
Hi Matt, I'm not a stylist but like watching hair cutting and styling videos. I'm glad you're back really enjoy watching your videos🙂 thanks for sharing ♡
My Favorite cut by far! You're a Wonderful hair stylist. You explain everything so well too. I love the way this cut shows the difference textures and dimensions. Great Job, and such a Beautiful Cut w/ a Razor! ❤️👍👍
I agree Scarlettohara!!!! I have a lovely awesome stylist who can get my red hair dye close to my natural auburn...so hard to find someone who can do that!! Took years. BUT stylist cannot create layers like what Matt does to get the shape...even with pics or videos. Pretty frustrating. He's so awesome!!! Makes me want to try and do it myself
Yeowwww! Matt is so awesome! If I could afford it I'd fly up to hos salon for a cut! My lovely stylist can dye my hair really close to my natural auburn color (which is a miracle...took years to find someone) I agree Scarlettohara OMG!! In the 70s and 80s I had a great shag like this. I think stylists think it looks old or mullets like. Might try to do this cut on my own...seriously!!! Matt is so calm and at ease and his voice is calming too..go Matt!!!
Oh I love that so so much and that's the haircut I've been looking for but now to find a hairdresser around here that can actually do that and make It look as good as what you did.❤
i cut my hair like this once !! my hair was really short so it gave me a pixie but it grew out really well. now that it's grown out, i'm going to try to do some maintenance with it using this video again :)
This is a great cut for thick hair I'm getting my hair done on Friday and this is just perfect for thick curly hair because it really shatters out all that brutal thickness especially around that neck area thank you so much for sharing great tutorials⚘
Matt thanks for the great tutorials. I am a 2nd year hairdressing student in nz and your videos help reinforce what we are taught and give great direction for how to develop the cutting technique
You're right the term is derogatory. Could you please offer an alternative term to educate those who are unaware and may like to become enlightened? Thank you. ❤
Do these dummy heads have automatically wavy/curly hair or what? I love the cut but I'm afraid my hair might not wave up that much. Thanks for this though, it's gorgeous!
Hi, I could cut my sister's hair, wavy with high density with your video. Non stylist here so had to finesse with some simple tips from another for leveling (the pony tails) after I cut it. My sister loves her new look. A respite, relief and welcome change from local stylists who insist on her straightening her hair to be able to style it. Thank you Matt Beck.
That cut was fantastic! There's another shag that I definitely want for sure. I'm looking for it now. The sizes are very different. I'm trying to find it now! Sorry, searching for this picture right now. I'll be back!
this is the only hairstyle I prefer, I’ve done this when I was 10 years old and I loved it ever since but the parlour shop that I got it done before is gone, I went to several parlours but didn’t get the same results. :(
Wow, that is amazing! I'm so glad you chose this as your first video, back, and that YT recommended it on my front page. I wouldn't have wanted to miss this one. That is my idea of the perfect shag. And so easy with that razor. I've got to get thatwhen I'm able to splurge a little, lol. I'd love to try that mousse, too. Thank you! Awesome video! I love all your videos, though,lol. 😊🌹
A retired hairdresser here and I have exactly the type of hair you are describing, thick and course. Some natural body in it and I know it would do this if I could only find a stylist that knew how to do this. Most do not know how to use a razor. Wishing you could drop by and do mine for me. Love it.
I can't find the swivel razor on your link just a triangle. This is the most flattering cool healthy cut for my thick wavy hair my girlfriend cut for ud in late 60s 70s part of 80s. Couldn't find anyone who could cut after that. Me too going to cut my own! Wish me luck. WISH you were here. THANK YOU FOR THIS.
Shags are hard if you don't pay attention to the density and weight of the hair. You can take to much out in the wrong places if not careful. Beautiful job. Enjoyed.
OMG!! THAT'S IT, THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I WANT!!!! Why is it so difficult to find stylists these days who know what LAYERS ARE????
Not every stylist had the wonderful benefit of being properly trained on cutting techniques AND communicating to execute exactly what the client wants..... that is a skill and a gift.... I love this haircut too.... hopefully you find someone to cut it perfectly for you
Beautiful

Back in the 70s every teenage girl could do this cut on all her friends. Now, most master stylists cannot. 😂😂😂
you’re aware there’s different types of layers right?
We had razor and texture cuts for mostly all our emo scene boy and girl hair back in the early 2000s. Now not one hair stylist can do it. Hahaha.
Yes they were the best, I loved those hair cuts!
It took me forever to find someone that could properly do it, even around 2006! lmao once I found her, I've stayed with that same person since then, even though I now live an hour and 45 minutes away🤣 she's also VERY cheap! It's like 15-20$
Me intensely staring at my razor thats def not for head hair: 👁👄👁
@slididn :p really? I wanted to do it today but I don’t have any hair si scissors and I was tempted to do it with regular scissors but I wasn’t sure. Do you recommend it? 🥺
@slididn :p i did it right I after I sent my comment lol! And I loved it
Does anyone know where to get the rasor
Haha same …
I've been cutting my own hair for 20 years. I've had everything, from a mohican to long and wavy, but this haircut was the best, quickest, most satisfying, thanks to this great tutorial. Sectioning is magic. Thank you so much.
I would love this cut but keeping my hair length long. I had this back in the early 70s.
Yes I hope this is coming back,I have long hair,my hairdresser cut my hair into a shag a few years ago and I had so many compliments some younger girls wanted this cut too
I've debated on cutting my hair into a shag for a literal year now, but I finally did it. Best decision I've made in a while.
Highly HIGHLY recommend, especially for wavy-hair gals, because the waves are poppin' my dudes.
I am a hairdresser here in Brazil and I just did her haircut on my daughter who wanted a lot .... she is very happy, thank you very much ♥ ️❤️ ♥ ️
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I’m in cosmetology school but we’re closed due to COVID and you have been helping me maintain my education! I did this haircut on a friend today and it turned out amazing! You’re so thorough and a wonderful instructor!
Congrats on cosmetology school..... I'm proud of you.. keep studying, it definitely makes perfect
I have wanted my hair cut like this my whole life,I couldn't see my hairdresser managing this!I might show her, don't think I want to risk it.
I'm in some local "what's going on in (insert your city state)" facebook groups. Periodically someone will post a photo of a style she wants and ask who can do it. If you have such a fb group in your area you could ask who can razor cut a shag and paste in the video link. I liked this cut a lot until he fluffed it up too much. I grew up in the '60s and '70s and my mom kept me in pixis. I always wanted a shag.
Come see me!! My favorite cut to do!
@@gaylenut where are you
use yelp
Sure, go and show your stylist and then see if she even gives a thought to sectioning it. The most sectioning I experienced in the past 10 years, it was in two...in the middle.
Yes this is exactly what I have wanted for a long time. No matter where or who I go to it doesn't happen. This cut looks beautiful!
Thats the thing here ! My shag was so bad that I went to shave my hair and started wearing wigs!
It’s at a short length now but could do the shag. I have thick wavy hair and did wear a shag back in the 70’s but nowadays you can’t find a stylist that knows anything about a shag and even the older stylists don’t know!
love it! Ive been a hairdresser for 45 years. This is a much more beautiful shag than the 70's version, Just the right amount of weight & waves, prettier and softer. thank you for the inspiration
So many stylist after the 70’s do not know how to use a razor or cut layers correctly. You have to section the hair first like this video.
Awesome job on that cut! I would love to get that done but I know there aren’t many skilled artist that can do it where I am.
Lip lip
Ahh mmaaaa zzz iinngg I’ve been trying to find a stylist that knows how to do this. Man I wish I lived closer
I'm going to follow this video exactly, wish me luck and thank you so much for such a great lesson!
how did it turn out?
I love the cut! This is what i have been looking for. wish i could find someone who can do this. You are amazing!
Beautiful. I learned this cut in the 70’s. No one these days know what a Shag is. Great for an active life. I have wavy hair and it fits me perfect. Thanks for EDUCATING NEW HAIR CUTTERS, DEE ALSO... RAZOR CUT
I had this cut the day I was married in 1973. Absolutely loved it. I would love to go back to this now.
You're brilliant, a modern version of a classic vintage style! Looooove it 😍😍😍
WOW !! Love the cut and your tips. I am so ready for shag to come back.
You read my mind, I was thinking how great would be if I see u cutting a shag with a razor. I’m a huge fan.
I've had a stylist tell me that layers like that weren't possible. Now I just gotta find someone who can do this for me. :)
Thank you so much for going into such detail about the sectioning!! that was super informative!

I like your clases, they really well explained with tons of tips. Love it! Thank so much!
I can NOT believe your salon is 20 mins from where i live!!! How crazy!!!! small world! love your videos!

Such a fun freestyle haircut with a razor. I want to try this now
Yeowwww! Matt is so awesome! If I could afford it I'd fly up to hos salon for a cut!

I love this shag cut with razor ! The texture and shape is stunning, end result is so edgy ! Now I would love to see a bob shag razor cut please .
I need this man to cut my hair. All of his hair cuts and styles are absolutely amazing!
My tattoo artist texted me today that for her appointment tomorrow she wants a cut like this, so this video is very helpful!
I love it. I would like to get that hair cut.
You are excellent !
Thank you! Been wanting to do a shag cut in layers but did not know where to start. I cut my own hair and hope I can nail this next time I try.
Omg so nice to have u back here again, ive missed this brilliant tutourials so much 😃😍👏🏻
Oh I love that so so much and that's the haircut I've been looking for but now to find a hairdresser around here that can actually do that and make It look as good as what you did.❤
I wore my hair in a shag all the time. Razor cuts are the best!
Rad! This is really gorgeous. I love the texture you got in the fringe, I will defo have to try that razor!
Most beautiful shag cut ever!!!
(from Italy 🇮🇹🎖️🥇🏆🎉🎊🎉👏👏👏👏👏✌️✌️✌️✌️👍👍👍👍👑👑👑)
Like always, a winner! Salon friendly, easily adapted for client needs and FUN!
All around amazing! I love your videos. Consistent, to the point, and thorough.
You are so helpful have been watching you for years and years
OMG this is perfection!!!! Explained so well...Your really talented... Can you do a video on a Dolly Parton inspired haircut next?
He’s right about section it first and map out the visual cut right after,,, we’ll all have less complicated way of cutting our clients hair 👍😁
I love this razor cut, so new and different, but I lived young in the 70,s and remember the exact cut!!!
i cut my hair like this once !! my hair was really short so it gave me a pixie but it grew out really well. now that it's grown out, i'm going to try to do some maintenance with it using this video again :)
Same!! Always grows out super nicely
Okay I can definitely use this on my older client who basically wants a mullet at about ear length on sides and past shoulders in back
This is so pretty. I feel like the shag/mullet is the haircut for the 2020’s. It’s super cool looking. It looks good on every type of face.
This is a great cut for thick hair I'm getting my hair done on Friday and this is just perfect for thick curly hair because it really shatters out all that brutal thickness especially around that neck area thank you so much for sharing great tutorials⚘
Matt thanks for the great tutorials. I am a 2nd year hairdressing student in nz and your videos help reinforce what we are taught and give great direction for how to develop the cutting technique
Can't wait to see the color video too! Love this shag haircut 🙌👏
do u think i could this but with long hair i don’t want my hair that short
Just razer top layers.. keep length
Nice work!!!! Fun cut
I love cutting with a razor!
I love the longer version of this.
The Gypsy shag.
Please don't use that word g*** ☹️ it's actually a derogatory term I just wanted to let you know. ♥️
@@candyqueenify
Not in my community!
You're right the term is derogatory. Could you please offer an alternative term to educate those who are unaware and may like to become enlightened? Thank you. ❤
That wasbreally well explained. Loved the sectioning.
That was awesome to watch, thank you! My hairdresser cut my hair like this the other day and now it will be the ONLY way I'll have my layers cut. 😊
Do these dummy heads have automatically wavy/curly hair or what? I love the cut but I'm afraid my hair might not wave up that much. Thanks for this though, it's gorgeous!
Best haircut I ever had was with razor, it's impossible to get same effect with scissors. I love it
I’ve watched so many shag cut videos and this was the best! Thank you so much! I’m so much more confident in executing this cut 🙌🏽❤️
Next time I get mine cut I will be showing them your videos as a reference thank you for cutting hair the way you do!

Thank you for the overhead view! 🥰
Super cute.. I have natural curls too. So I have to get this.
this is the only hairstyle I prefer, I’ve done this when I was 10 years old and I loved it ever since but the parlour shop that I got it done before is gone, I went to several parlours but didn’t get the same results. :(
This is one of my favorite cuts to do!! I bet that razor comb makes it so much easier too! Thanks for another great video! ❤
Incredible. Attempting this exact technique on my wig today. Thanks!
Excellent cut and technique!
lovely haircut and explanation. wish i could do it to myself!
Cool haircut very awesome love it!
Awesome!! I wish to get a hair cut done by you some day ... you sure have the skill to transform hair dramatically 👌🏻👍🏻
Welcome back .it always a pleasure watching you cut hair.

This is the most flattering cool healthy cut for my thick wavy hair my girlfriend cut for ud in late 60s 70s part of 80s.
Couldn't find anyone who could cut after that. Me too going to cut my own! Wish me luck. WISH you were here.
THANK YOU FOR THIS.
Matt the Magic Wizard !💖💖💖
Thanks
I have this cut and tried to get my co worker to do it with a razor ! She is afraid of razors😳
Beautiful work ❤️
In love with this cut! I’m going to attempt on myself 😂 wish me luck 🤞
Thank you so much for this awesome video!!!! I like this a lot and will be using this to “practice” 😅
Love this! I had this back in the 70s!❤❤
This was so helpful. Thank you!
Beautiful cut Matt! Love the finish.
Incredible work as usual! You are a true artist!
Love it! I have not seen a shaggy for a while!
beautiful work!
Love this so much but once I had a razor cut years ago and it was a frizz bomb! Maybe I have too much curl for a razor? That cut is amazing!!
Love the cut. This is exactly what i want
I think I'll try pinking scissors. Could be interesting 🤔😆
Shags are hard if you don't pay attention to the density and weight of the hair. You can take to much out in the wrong places if not careful. Beautiful job. Enjoyed.
I specialize in long shag cut but i created one for really long hair
In thinking of getting this haircut for summer but idk, should I?
Fabulous hair cut
Yay 😀 🙌🏻. You’re back!!!! LOVE the cut! Thank you 😊
