Thank you so much. i am 61 years old on a pension. I"ve seen a lot of videos on how too. You explained the step by step so well. Saved me a lot of money. My hair turned out just like a pro did it.
Lady, I’m an Elementary School teacher (Sub) & I too am on a tight budget. Please check out public libraries & look up “little free pantries” & communal fridges. They aid a ton. Best wishes, & thank goodness for Britney!
I actually came here to say the same thing! I went through beauty school and had any of my instructors taught as thorough as she has, I probably would have finished my very last 107 hours… (yes I’m a fool for that😩🥴)
@@Sassafrass-qh8po have you tried John Frieda 4N? I found it to be more ashy than brass last time I colored. It actually covered better than when I had my partial blonde highlights covered up at the salon 4 months previously.
I have searched far and wide for a layered cut that didn’t just exaggerate how thin/fine my hair already is, and/or make my hair look shorter than it is. I can’t tell you how grateful I am for you sharing this! This is EXACTLY what I’ve been searching for, and it was SO easy! :) Thank you!
Wow girl. I have been dreading going to a stylist because I feel I can't ever explain the way I want. I just did this and bam! So easy and what a relief for my thick hair. thank you!
I have super thick and long hair, so I had to do another layer or two, and it could probably be blended a little better. But we just bought a house and was trying to figure out how to save a few bucks this month, so for that, it was so worth it, and I'm very happy.
I'm a barber and I enjoyed this so much sitting at work bored waiting on clients I tried it and blow dried my hair and it made my hair look so much fuller thanks gurl 🥰💯🤘
Ur an amazing teacher I did this on my daughters hair with no hair cutting experience and just by watching this 1 video of urs less than 7 minutes long u taught me everything I needed to know and it turned out beautifully! I don’t see anywhere I can post pix or I would share some before and after pix for u to see just how incredible ur teaching methods are! Thank u from me & my beautiful daughter who’s walking talk & proud with her amazing looking new hairdo!!❤️
First/ last time I cut my oldest daughters hair It was horrible! So bad we took her to the hair salon and they had to give her a pixie cut. Fast forward 10 yrs and after watching a couple of your videos I felt confident enough to try again on my middle daught. I'm currently in tears because it came out soooo good! Thank you thank you thank you.
I just came from a popular salon and I did not like how my hair was layered. I cut my own hair following your directions and I loved the results! Even my boys said my haircut is now better looking! Thank you for sharing, Britnee!
Hi, I'm here to let you know that I used this tutorial and the one about cutting the lenght of the hair for blunt edge. My hair was getting long and feeling thin, and both of those videos helped me give myself a trim and very gentle layers. Now my hair feels much healthier and thicker, layers gave it some bounce which I was looking for. Thank you so much for sharing your tips❤️
best tutorial ive seen for this. I just cut some layers in my shoulder-length hair and now ive got some nice face framing pieces and my ends arent so bulky anymore. girl you are a life-saver!!
Girl thank you. You have saved me so much money this past year watching you I finally decided to subscribe because every time I go to get my haircut it’s like women are jealous of women’s hair???!!! so they cut it too short. I love how your real 100 and don’t give a shit I love that. ❤
Idk how, after 17 years of doing my own hair, I'm just now finding you, but I'm so glad! I've watched countless tutorials over the years & yours are by far the best at explaining things for beginners, but keeping it quick. No one wants to watch a 30 min tutorial before starting on the process of doing your hair 😂 I just used your at-home highlight video last night & my hair looks great! Thank you! ❤
I've been using this video since the start of the pandemic. It's simple, clear, and is the perfect "Yay! Looks healthy again!" refresh. Thank you so much!
Thank you!! Just found this and cut my own hair for the first time and it’s worked perfectly. Really appreciate the confidence boosting (assuring me I couldn’t go wrong!) and straight directions 👍🏻
FINALLY! A great video on DIY layers from home, without all the extra bs and talking nonsense! Thank you! I will definitely use this video after going through about 30 that were useless. I am a dog lover too, and I find it kinda cute that a hair stylist has a hair-less dog too!
AMAZING tutorial! I just did my thick shapeless below the shoulder length bob (it took about 5 minutes) and this beautifully framed my hair/face. I didn’t even shape it or style it, it just falls on your face naturally. THANK YOU! you’re the best 😍
I'm so glad I found your tutorials! You are a very good teacher. When it comes to hair cuts my experience has been that no matter if I spend a little or a lot it's not what I had in mind and I usually have to fix it when I get home. I've had the same hair cut for a long time, a short a line style, but recently have it a little longer and needed to learn how to cut it in a new style, with longer layers. Thanks to you, I did it! I will be checking out more of your tips to learn more. Thanks so much for helping! You're making the world a better place!!!
HOLY CRAP.... I DID THIS FOR THE 1ST TIME AND I HAVE TO SAY... I'M PRETTY DAMN PROUD OF MYSELF. IT CAME OUT GREAT. THIS WAS THE BEST AND EASIEST DIY HAIR CUT. THANK YOU SO MUCH
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I am falling down the hole of not being happy with any person who cuts my hair. I have fine curly hair and can't manage to find anyone who can cut it correctly. I cut it myself today and am so happy. I also cut the back like you suggested in your "How to cut your hair/DIY". I am so glad to have found your videos!
I have never had a better haircut, and I mean EVER! You are a Goddess. I commented on an older video, but I actually used both. Love you for helping me help my doo!💋
I have very long hair and I read this comment section and had to try and give myself fave framing layers, and I’m blown away how amazing this worked! I literally could not be happier!! Thank you so so so much!
@s a yes if u do it just the way she says, it always turns out amazing! Take your time, do it right the first time! Let me know when you do it so I can check out results!!
OMG! The way you just so easily explained that! Even my ADHD a$$ understood the assignment! Thank you! I’m giving my 8 year old a hair cut and want her to have a little something and this is PERFECT!!
Just came across two of your videos, one on how to cut side swept bangs and this one. I have to say amazing it was straight to the point, and the technique on how to perfect my hair now looks better than going to a salon and having to come home and fix mistakes. Thank you for this!!!!
I just tried this and I'm so happy with how it turned out. Thank you! You're a wonderful teacher. I recently moved to the country and don't where to get my hair cut, plus I've been busy with moving and work. This was brilliant. Love my new hair.
I trimmed my length and added long layers using your videos. You explain it so well! I'm so happy. My hair feels so much better now - I haven't had a professional cut since March 2020! Thank you! And I agree - you're adorable!
I love how you simplify things. I followed your videos on how to thin and layer my hair and it’s the best job I’ve done so far. My hair is extremely thick and I learned from you what I was doing wrong in the past. Thanks Britnee
I just cut my own hair for the first time! It turned out wonderful. You gave such amazing instructions. I cannot thank you enough. Last time I went to the salon it was a horrible experience. Cutting my own hair turned out so great, that my friend had me cut her hair right away as well. Thank you thank you thank you.!!!!
I am a half trained hairdresser and was cutting my side fringe/bang and decided to redo my layers. Thanks so much for your straightforward, quick video. Delighted with my hair again 💜✨
I looked at a couple different videos before choosing yours, and I am so glad I chose yours!!Your easy to follow instructions, and your demonstration on your own hair helped me get an absolutely perfectly layered haircut! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
I just found your channel and did both the overall length cut and layers tutorials yesterday. Today I wore my hair down, and my friend commented that I was having a good hair day. I have zero experience doing my own hair, and appreciate your straightforward approach - this is a game changer! Idk if I have the guts to try highlights, but your videos on that are awesome, too. Thanks for your videos & tutorials!
Hi Brittnee, I just came across your video yesterday. It helped me so much, I can't thank you enough! I have been dreading going to a salon to get my hair cut. Your video was just the help I needed to get some layers back in my hair. Thank you!!! I look forward to watching your other videos and sharing them with my daughters.
I followed this and absolutely loved it. It’s exactly how my hair used to come out when my old stylist did it. I have been to several others and they just don’t get it! After I did this to myself, my current stylist (now just colorist) and her assistant love it so much!
Just did this to mine and my daughters hair and it turned out so nice. Thank you so much. I hate having to pay for haircuts when I can easily do it myself. ❤️
You are the best tutor ever! I love how you explain why we need to do or not do something. I will always remember that hair close to or away from my face makes different cuts. I can't believe how good my hair looks after just a half hour. It really helps that your hair is very much like my own super fine hair, and suddenly, after this cut, it looks like I've got more! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Just did the same thing (kind of) for the first time and I am feeling like it was done by a pro. You are really great Brittnee!! I feel reborn, after more then a year my covid hair is gone! Thank you! I wish you many subs also!
I loved your video and I did it today, cut my layers, and they turned out great….. no matter where I get my haircut, if I pay lots, or go to great clips, no one wants to cut shorter layers on my hair, I have thin and mostly straight hair so they seem afraid it’ll look thinner, but i do have lots and once I style it looks great, but they don’t want to, so I got a haircut today, hairstylist gave me layers on the back but longer ones on the front …. So I got home , found your Video and followed the instructions and gave myself some layers, and they turn out great, just exactly what I want it. Thank you so much now I’m following :-)
Finally a helpful video. I had just started (but couldn't finish) watching several videos by hair stylists that showed how to self layer on a mannequin and kept over complicating the process. I can only imagine that they either don't know how to explain as well as you do or are afraid that their own clients will question the $300 price tag if it sounds too simple. Bottom line their videos are pointless. Thank you for demystify layers. I believe in supporting the professionals do what they do best, but it's nice to be able to rely on one self when necessary.
I've watched quite a few tutorials about this over the last year so when I say this is by far the best all around I mean it ☺️ I am so grateful I not only found the one I needed but am super excited to check out more of your videos.
Just searched for DIY layers and found you. 5 minutes later I was done. My hair is fine like yours and this video was awesome. I'm a young 76 and haven't been to a hair stylist more than 10 times in my entire life. I don't know that I ever got a decent haircut for $ so I decided I could do it myself and at least not be disappointed spent $$! I subscribed and I'll be back to watch the rest of your videos, plus I'll share you ❤❤❤
THANK YOU!!! I've been cutting my own hair for long time, but pretty much long and blunt. Last time hair dresser did layers it took me years to grow out, it was horrible. But I just did this and it turned out beautifully! A much needed change for me. :)
I hate going to hairdressers hair never comes out way i want it. I tried your haircut and I love it!!!! I have curly hair but I blow it dry so I could see the cut and it was awesome especially the back, every layer was perfectly even. If anyone is undecided try it you won't be disappointed. Thank you Brittnee!!!
Wow, straight to the point and so easy to follow. I just did this to my hair after having a not so great haircut at the salon. It looks a MILLION times better! Thank you !
Okay, I just did this and it worked amazing on my thick hair! My hair is slightly longer than shoulder length and I used my chin as a reference point for the cut. Because my hair is thick I had to make multiple cuts, and point cutting like she teaches in this tutorial is the way to go. Do not just chop straight across if you have thick hair. It will look much more choppy and unnatural than if you point cut it. I was choppy with the point cutting and thought it was going to look bad, but when I took my hair down and blew it dry it looked great! I did point cut a little section or two after it was dry that looked a little too blunt, so you can always touch it up after you dry it. Perfect!!!
Best layering tutorial! I also did your bangs, and face framing layers, and cut! My hair looks so good. I've tried many other tutorials that didn't work.
Omg thank u for this video! Saved me! I've been growing my hair out since chemo and im afraid a salon will chop too much. This was perfect to help add a layer in. ❤
This tutorial was very pedagogical. Have been looking for the perfect tutorial for cutting my own hair, and I found it! Thank you for saving me time and money. Gonna be cutting it again soon! This was fun!
Love your straight-up and no BS way of teaching. I am definitely trying this today! My hair is so neglected, I was almost considering the mullet technique you mentioned : ) too funny
I love your videos. You do a great job of explaining and demonstrating without dragging it out. I've watched so many, but yours are the only ones I constantly refer back to. Thank you!
I think the secret is to cut only a centimeter at a time, I know none of us has the patience to do it, but after some experiences I foubd out that each time I do something to my hair at home (color or cut) I do it gradually. It's like testing a color on one strand: cut only a centimeter to see how your hair reacts, especially curls, wait one week and repeat. Hugs to all the people here ❤
Wow, amazing tutorial. I have literally watched 100’s of hours of hair cutting, coloring and bleaching UA-cam tutorials and yours are the most well explained easiest to understand. I’ve been cutting/coloring my hair at home for about two years and I’ve learned a lot and tried. Many different techniques for all the things and I’m getting ready to cut aloy of inches off and change it up a bit more than my usual so I started looking for technique to make it easier and me more confident. Thank god I found you. You explained it all so well and and didn’t leave out the tiny detail that make other DIY videos easy to misinterpret or mess up. Thank you so much! I need to binge watch you now and catch up lol
This method works really well for me. I’ve cut my long hair this way a few times now and each time people comment on my cute haircut and nice layers 😁👍 Good video, thank you!
Thank you so much I have fine hair and no hair dressers ever get it right but this looks like it will be the one to get the job done I'll be trying this this weekend you're a star 🌟 xxx
Instead of cutting into my hair to give it a more I used this tutorial to cut my own layers and instead of cutting into it I used a pair of thinners to do it for me . Softens up the ends a bit. It’s much easier than cutting into my hair. Thank you so much for the wonderful video. My hair turned out great! Have a wonderful day!
Thank you for this simple method of layer cutting at home,you were super fun and easy to understand! Thank you for mentioning about not starting too short and about if a person has wavy or curly hair like I do because the hair will shrink up when dry,always start long!!😁 I have tried other at home methods on layering but you have the simplest one yet,and your hair looks amazing!!!🤗👍💕I will be trying it out tonight!
Thanks so much! Like someone else said, I had just done the length trim as my hair was feeling very thin at the ends, so I was able to bring the length up a few inches and it's made a huge difference. I'll be doing my layers tomorrow. Im a beauty school drop who got tired of crappy haircuts that cost me money and my sanity so I have been cutting my own hair for about ten years now. I work 65 hours a week and just don't have time for a trip to the salon. Thank you again.
Ohhh my gosh! Thank you soooo much, Brittnee! This was SUCH a HUGE LIFESAVER! I was getting sick of spending money at different salons for them just to give me a borning blunt cut when I specifically asked for layers and point cuts AND even showed them pictures of exactly how I wanted my cut! Nope! I just kept getting boring-ass cuts. So I said to myself, "What the hell? I'm going to check out some UA-cam tutorials and do this on my own. When you need something done right you gotta do it yourself, huh? Anyways, this video was the first to pop up in my search and I gave it a whirl. Viola! I FINALLY got my perfect layered haircut! I even layered my 12 year old daughters hair using the same techniques and she loves it! We are SOOOO over-the-moon happy with the results! Thank you so much, Brittnee! You're the best! :)
You're amazing thank you sooooo much. I just did three videos, the side bangs, straight cut and long layers. I am so pleased! Very happy with the results, your tips are ACE!
our hair was so long and HEAVY & we Needed this so much! after watchin some other vids we chose yours because of the in depth explanations you give and the Tips, WAY HELPFUL!!! my husband has been cutting my hair, just the ends for more than 10 years, we're on a budget like a lot of seniors, an i dont go out, so being able to have a cut that Looks like a stylist did it = HEAVEN - on to more BrittneeAlexusHair vids❣🔔📝❣
I tried it and It looks super cute and Voluminous! And you're right, I did cut it at my chin and it's over my nose now because i have curls. Thank you so much for this easy tutorial 🥰💞
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE!! They’re so simple to do!! I’ve always wanted to be a hairstylist but only for my own hair 😂 I’ve done plenty of butchering before UA-cam really took off with tutorials but these *chef kiss* amazing!!!

Right there with you! I was lucky enough that when I went to college in early 70s my mom taught me how to do it. Refresher course was great lol;❤

Omg 5min in a 6 min video to actually cut blah blah blah

Same! I got my hair done by a hairdresser and it looked so bad. I did what she said in the video and it looks so much better!!!
I can’t find a hairdresser who will cut layers in my hair. They all say NO, then charge me £140
#TrueStory 😄👍👍
Thanks so much! Got a haircut yesterday...
asked for layers.... she barely did anything.
Today I will do this, myself!
@@AJ-hi9fd Mine said no, too! Why do they say no? Is it because they don't want to be bothered? I don't get it and I never asked her why!lol
I just love Brittnee. Does not stall. Thinks quickly, and it shows in her videos. Nothing pretentious about her. Really beautiful.
THANK YOU MJ!!!!!💜💜💜💜

Just did the same thing (kind of) for the first time and I am feeling like it was done by a pro. You are really great Brittnee!! I feel reborn, after more then a year my covid hair is gone! Thank you! I wish you many subs also!
I always come back to this
Simple, straightforward and not half hour long!😅
Thank you!
a hairdresser with a hairless dog ahhhh how cute and iconic love u doll thanks for this ur gorgeous
THANK YOU!!!
I loved your video and I did it today, cut my layers, and they turned out great….. no matter where I get my haircut, if I pay lots, or go to great clips, no one wants to cut shorter layers on my hair, I have thin and mostly straight hair so they seem afraid it’ll look thinner, but i do have lots and once I style it looks great, but they don’t want to, so I got a haircut today, hairstylist gave me layers on the back but longer ones on the front …. So I got home , found your
Video and followed the instructions and gave myself some layers, and they turn out great, just exactly what I want it. Thank you so much now I’m following :-)
I used your video, and everyone thought I went to a salon. Thank you!
Finally a helpful video. I had just started (but couldn't finish) watching several videos by hair stylists that showed how to self layer on a mannequin and kept over complicating the process. I can only imagine that they either don't know how to explain as well as you do or are afraid that their own clients will question the $300 price tag if it sounds too simple. Bottom line their videos are pointless. Thank you for demystify layers. I believe in supporting the professionals do what they do best, but it's nice to be able to rely on one self when necessary.
I've watched quite a few tutorials about this over the last year so when I say this is by far the best all around I mean it ☺️ I am so grateful I not only found the one I needed but am super excited to check out more of your videos.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! that is so kind!
Same Here! 😁 Going to share with other friends!!
Girl I just gave myself curtain bangs and layers thanks to your videos. Super easy visual to follow along with so thank you!
I like how precise you are with your directions. ❤️
thank you!
I'm sooooo glad I clicked on your layering video! It was exactly the styling my hair needed.
This was my first ever attempt at cutting my hair; I was terrified that'd I'd end up looking ridiculous. IT LOOKS AMAZING! Thank you so much!!
Just searched for DIY layers and found you. 5 minutes later I was done. My hair is fine like yours and this video was awesome.
I'm a young 76 and haven't been to a hair stylist more than 10 times in my entire life. I don't know that I ever got a decent haircut for $ so I decided I could do it myself and at least not be disappointed spent $$!
I subscribed and I'll be back to watch the rest of your videos, plus I'll share you ❤❤❤
thank you so much, so happy it could help!
Thank you! I have long thick curly hair and was damaged pretty bad. Work like magic! Love it.
Hi Brittnee! That’s the easiest -- explanation on how to do your own long layers i’ve seen anywhere. Thank You sooo much ❤
THANK YOU!!! I've been cutting my own hair for long time, but pretty much long and blunt. Last time hair dresser did layers it took me years to grow out, it was horrible. But I just did this and it turned out beautifully! A much needed change for me. :)
I hate going to hairdressers hair never comes out way i want it. I tried your haircut and I love it!!!! I have curly hair but I blow it dry so I could see the cut and it was awesome especially the back, every layer was perfectly even. If anyone is undecided try it you won't be disappointed. Thank you Brittnee!!!
Wow, straight to the point and so easy to follow. I just did this to my hair after having a not so great haircut at the salon. It looks a MILLION times better! Thank you !
Okay, I just did this and it worked amazing on my thick hair! My hair is slightly longer than shoulder length and I used my chin as a reference point for the cut. Because my hair is thick I had to make multiple cuts, and point cutting like she teaches in this tutorial is the way to go. Do not just chop straight across if you have thick hair. It will look much more choppy and unnatural than if you point cut it. I was choppy with the point cutting and thought it was going to look bad, but when I took my hair down and blew it dry it looked great! I did point cut a little section or two after it was dry that looked a little too blunt, so you can always touch it up after you dry it. Perfect!!!
You are *such* a great teacher! I did this today when I was feeling a litt down and now I *love* it. Like therapy. Thank you for what you do!
Best layering tutorial! I also did your bangs, and face framing layers, and cut! My hair looks so good. I've tried many other tutorials that didn't work.
You make me want to get out of my current career and actually help people be fabulous. You are such an inspiration. Thank you!
Omg thank u for this video! Saved me! I've been growing my hair out since chemo and im afraid a salon will chop too much. This was perfect to help add a layer in. ❤
This tutorial was very pedagogical. Have been looking for the perfect tutorial for cutting my own hair, and I found it! Thank you for saving me time and money. Gonna be cutting it again soon! This was fun!
Thank you. That was so much easier and clearer to understand than other vids...plus you were cutting your own hair - big difference
Love your straight-up and no BS way of teaching. I am definitely trying this today! My hair is so neglected, I was almost considering the mullet technique you mentioned : ) too funny
I love your videos. You do a great job of explaining and demonstrating without dragging it out. I've watched so many, but yours are the only ones I constantly refer back to. Thank you!
BEST TEACHER EVER!! I’ve followed your length cut, bangs cut and I will be trying this layer cut too!! Thank you 🙏
THANK YOU! Next up we're going bald lol- phase 4 of quarantine
@@BrittneeAlexus 😂 last thing left to try
O I so agree! She's awesome
I was a hairstylist long time ago, I tried your method and it came out great, THANK YOU for sharing!
OMG thank you!!!!!❤️❤️
Yes! This video definitely worked out for me!! Just finished cutting my hair! And it looks amazing!! Love it!!
You do the best with your speed and describing what to do. You would make a awesome teacher. Thanks for your videos
I think the secret is to cut only a centimeter at a time, I know none of us has the patience to do it, but after some experiences I foubd out that each time I do something to my hair at home (color or cut) I do it gradually. It's like testing a color on one strand: cut only a centimeter to see how your hair reacts, especially curls, wait one week and repeat. Hugs to all the people here ❤
Wow, amazing tutorial. I have literally watched 100’s of hours of hair cutting, coloring and bleaching UA-cam tutorials and yours are the most well explained easiest to understand. I’ve been cutting/coloring my hair at home for about two years and I’ve learned a lot and tried. Many different techniques for all the things and I’m getting ready to cut aloy of inches off and change it up a bit more than my usual so I started looking for technique to make it easier and me more confident. Thank god I found you. You explained it all so well and and didn’t leave out the tiny detail that make other DIY videos easy to misinterpret or mess up. Thank you so much! I need to binge watch you now and catch up lol
Thank you! I love these layers. ❤️It is exactly how I wanted my hair to look. Nobody ever gets it right when I go to salons.
yay! you go!!
This method works really well for me. I’ve cut my long hair this way a few times now and each time people comment on my cute haircut and nice layers 😁👍 Good video, thank you!
Thank you so much I have fine hair and no hair dressers ever get it right but this looks like it will be the one to get the job done I'll be trying this this weekend you're a star 🌟 xxx
Instead of cutting into my hair to give it a more I used this tutorial to cut my own layers and instead of cutting into it I used a pair of thinners to do it for me . Softens up the ends a bit. It’s much easier than cutting into my hair. Thank you so much for the wonderful video. My hair turned out great! Have a wonderful day!
Thank you for this simple method of layer cutting at home,you were super fun and easy to understand! Thank you for mentioning about not starting too short and about if a person has wavy or curly hair like I do because the hair will shrink up when dry,always start long!!😁 I have tried other at home methods on layering but you have the simplest one yet,and your hair looks amazing!!!🤗👍💕I will be trying it out tonight!
Thanks so much! Like someone else said, I had just done the length trim as my hair was feeling very thin at the ends, so I was able to bring the length up a few inches and it's made a huge difference. I'll be doing my layers tomorrow. Im a beauty school drop who got tired of crappy haircuts that cost me money and my sanity so I have been cutting my own hair for about ten years now. I work 65 hours a week and just don't have time for a trip to the salon. Thank you again.
Ohhh my gosh! Thank you soooo much, Brittnee! This was SUCH a HUGE LIFESAVER! I was getting sick of spending money at different salons for them just to give me a borning blunt cut when I specifically asked for layers and point cuts AND even showed them pictures of exactly how I wanted my cut! Nope! I just kept getting boring-ass cuts. So I said to myself, "What the hell? I'm going to check out some UA-cam tutorials and do this on my own.
When you need something done right you gotta do it yourself, huh?
Anyways, this video was the first to pop up in my search and I gave it a whirl. Viola! I FINALLY got my perfect layered haircut! I even layered my 12 year old daughters hair using the same techniques and she loves it! We are SOOOO over-the-moon happy with the results! Thank you so much, Brittnee! You're the best! :)
Thank you for going through each step so clearly!!
You're amazing thank you sooooo much. I just did three videos, the side bangs, straight cut and long layers. I am so pleased! Very happy with the results, your tips are ACE!
YOU are amazing! thank you for watching and letting me know how it turned out!!! So happy!
our hair was so long and HEAVY & we Needed this so much! after watchin some other vids we chose yours because of the in depth explanations you give and the Tips, WAY HELPFUL!!! my husband has been cutting my hair, just the ends for more than 10 years, we're on a budget like a lot of seniors, an i dont go out, so being able to have a cut that Looks like a stylist did it = HEAVEN - on to more BrittneeAlexusHair vids❣🔔📝❣
I followed this tutorial after the other one where I cut my hair straight first. I look amazing.
Ty. Your confidence in a beginner helps us cut with ease.
I can’t seem to get just a good layer cut anywhere it’s insane
Nope. Not without also losing 4 inches. Lol. I started doing mine long ago for this reason.
Exactly same here!!
Same!!!!
Best thing I ever did was buy shears and cut my own!
Same here 😔
Yasss. Major props for being a straight-hair gal that understands curly girl shrinkage 😘🙋🏾♀️
Shrinkage is real, lol, in so many ways.
I tried it and It looks super cute and Voluminous! And you're right, I did cut it at my chin and it's over my nose now because i have curls. Thank you so much for this easy tutorial 🥰💞
I think her barking is beautiful. I love that you have her there.❤❤❤❤
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE!! They’re so simple to do!! I’ve always wanted to be a hairstylist but only for my own hair 😂 I’ve done plenty of butchering before UA-cam really took off with tutorials but these *chef kiss* amazing!!!
I have photoshop, you can be anything you want to be with the right paper LOL!! you go!!!❤️❤️
