As someone with alopecia who is rapidly losing their hair, hearing Brad yell “women don’t need to have hair” at me just cleansed my soul Edit: Warning, if you have alopecia, I wouldn’t recommend reading the replies. Thanks so much to all the lovely kind people who said nice stuff, ❤ but last I saw, some people are being rude for no reason. If you have alopecia and are reading this, I hope you have a great life 💕
Sorry you have to put up with that. Mine is super thin and I don’t cope well with it. Hope you are stronger than me and manage to rock whatever you end up with.
"Let's stop relating mental illness to head shaving, because women don't need hair" Brad, legend, I have always watched your videos and you always slay, but that statement was just....epic. We are not worthy of your awesomeness. I am bowing to your amazing self 🙌🙌❤️❤️
I had to do a group assignment at university before and somebody in my group literally put a slide in, with a photo of Brittany on, and started talking about how celebrities having 'mental breakdowns' ... ... it was a psychology degree ...
I just started losing all my hair to chemotherpy, my husband helped me shave the rest. I cried, he's says I'm beutiful. "woman don't need hair." Thank u 💓 Thank u all for the nice caring words. Great news I just finished both chemo and radiation I'm cancer free.
I'm sure you look stunning. Good luck with your chemo & wishing you a swift and full remission & recovery. Also, your husband sounds like a great guy. Little actions of support can make such such difference, especially when you're facing an illness like cancer. A personal story of mine on the theme of loving support: When my mum had breast cancer she was lucky enough to not need chemo after her mastectomy but her hand swelled up from lymphedema, so her wedding ring no longer fit, she hadn't taken it off in almost 40 years until the surgery. She was devastated, but we told her we'd get her a nice necklace to wear it on, obviously she was still sad but it helped a little. She'd had complications caused by the pain meds so was in hospital 10 days instead of the 3 they expected and has never had patience for being a patient. Dad was so effected by it all, and he said to me he wanted to do something nice for her & asked if I could take him to go look for a new gold wedding band. We found one that was so pretty & perfect that when the girl in the shop got it out to show him he started crying...bittersweet, happy & sad tears (it was like getting to marry her all over again but he had the worry and sadness over the original ring no longer being wearable, and at the time not knowing how bad the cancer prognosis was yet). When we took it too mum, he cried again, which made me cry. And then when he gave it to mum, she cried too, but it also made her so happy, it was such a small act bu it had a huge impact, and I felt incredibly honoured to have been able to be there to help him choose it. She made a full recovery but the lymphedema stuck around, so she wore the old ring on a necklace and the new ring on her hand. When Dad suddenly passed away 10 years later we went to add his wedding ring to the necklace. The "new" ring had been getting loose and she was so worried about losing it, so she was going to reluctantly add it to the chain too, on a whim she decided to try the old band again (she thought it would still be too small)...it fit perfectly once more. So since he passed she's worn the original band and the "new" band and his are together on the chain - both rings are equally as important to her. And even though it was a very difficult time when she had her surgery etc, they created that moment to share (and I also have a beautiful memory of helping my dad pick a wedding ring for my mum, I feel not many people get that privilege). So, even though you are facing such a difficult time right now, you and your husband are creating those good (although bittersweet) memories you'll have forever, that remind you of how much you support and love each other. And hopefully one day that will be the predominant memory over all the negatives that you're currently facing. An added bonus is that I bet you're absolutely rocking that beautiful bald head (just remember to always use generous amounts of sunscreen on it, even if it doesn't seem that sunny out).
I had long hair as a teen but I hated dealing with it. So eventually I just shaved it, now I keep it short. It wasn’t a mental breakdown. It was a break through. I’m glad we’re starting to break the stigma of short and shaved hair
This was me. Buzzed my head years ago and kept it in a pixie-ish cut and I've now started to grow it out to a bob. My hair is so thick... there are days(many days) where I want to cave and buzz again because it's so hot(reason I buzzed it), but now it's my new challenge to stick with it and grow it out. I love seeing girls rocking the buzz cut. One of the biggest power moves of all time.
I've been wanting to shave my head for YEARS! My hair has been down to my butt practically my whole life, and I'm 29. There are a few things stopping me though. 1) I have a long, narrow head/face that's also lumpy and cone shaped. So it isn't the ideal head/face shape for a shaved head. 2) My hair is very fine and thin. So it will be flat when it grows back, and I do NOT want to style it. And 3) I've had nightmares where I shave my head and immediately panic and regret it.
My mom was forced to have short hair because her mom didn't want to deal with it. So my mom always had me had long hair. I went short in middle school and when I look back I loved it but got made fun of so much. Now I have a shave side and I have the "It's only hair it'll grow back" state of mind and it's great.
👏👏👏👏Brad standing up for Britney! Yesss! The narrative perpetrated by the media around Britney’s head shaving as her being “crazy” was one of the biggest enablers for her conservatorship! Let’s STOP the personal attacks on Britney and end the stigma around mental health. Well done Brad for calling this out 👏👍
she didn’t do it tho cause she was crazy or because of her breakdown, she wanted to be left over not having her picture taken everywhere she went being followed into bathrooms.
As a woman, who when I was 16 shaved my head (after having my dreadlocks painstakingly brushed out,btw) I appreciate the sentiment. Women who shave their heads shouldn’t be tagged as having some hysterical breakdown. It’s ridiculous. Shaving your head can be an incredibly freeing and wonderful experience.
Yeah, I did it in my 30s and it was freeing and like refreshing. And everyone around me thought that I had a mental breakdown. But no. I just did it and I liked it.
I can see how it can be freeing and refreshing but I also know that some girls do it for no other reason than the fact that they just want a shaved head. I have long hair but I think a buzzy looks amazing and fierce. 💞
I cut off my locs recently too.... and it is refreshing to see someone validate that as a freeing experience because I have been carrying some guilt ...
@@sarahdemartin1183 Of course! Nothing wrong with that. I think that's what they're saying - any gender can shave their hair for whatever reason they want.
sorry to write my comment here just hoping to catch the attention of the creator,please make a short highlighting what's going on in iran please everyone Be the voice of iranian people who are now cut off from accessing to any channel using internet #sos #iran #mahsaamini Be the voice of iranian women
“Women don’t need to have hair.” Kinda… really resonated in the best way. I went to the Renaissance Festival today, and I saw sooooo many ladies with either buzz cuts or a smooth shave. One girl had on this astonishingly gorgeous ram-horn headdress, and one of her friends was helping to redraw the ivy lines and nebula swirls she’d painted on before arriving in the morning. Not a performer… just a visitor of the realm. I liked seeing so many women with extra-short or no hair. Most of the hairbraiding spots had either small kids, or men. (Lots of Vikings-show braids. One fellow asked the hair artists to ‘just have fun with the flowers and glitter. My kids will love it, too!’)
Ren faire is such a magical place for ACCEPTANCE!! Even if you're not into sci-fi/fantasy everyone should visit a fest at some point in their lives! Come as you are and share your own magic, they'll love it, i promise 🥰
@@321joback a place where you’re encouraged to be your weird self. And, as many of the show casts said “Use your outdoor voices!” Ever seen a flamethrower on a set of bagpipes!
I shaved my head once because I did not like my hair for a very long time. I really HATED it. So I shaved it. It felt so ridiculously exhilarating the first day. I wore a wig from the salon. I just kept on watching the mirror when I got home. It was so different and new and I saw I was still beautiful. I just kept laughing. Then I woke up the next day and felt totally horrible. So I posted on my fb about it. My friends were so supportive. They sent me photos of Angelina Jolie and other actresses looking beautiful when they were bald. When I got back to work, there were mixed reactions. 😂🤣It was crazy and I felt crazy because it was so different from sociatal norms. But I felt free and beautiful. And you know what, I have a better relationship with my hair now. I now understand that my hair is under my control and I can shave or grow it out according to what I want. I am beautiful with whatever hair I have. It's just hair. ❤️
Thank you for sharing your story with us, this was wonderful to read :) great to hear what u learned about yourself and that u have supportive surroundings 🙌
I literally just did this cut myself and I am so happy with it. The first rule I followed was getting proper hair cutting scissors. The second, get it damp, the third cutting my desired length before the high ponytail. Thank you for saying shaved heads don't mean a mental break down, it can mean something different.
how long was your hair before the cut? i really want to do this hairstyle but my hair is kinda short rn. if i put it in the super high pony the back hairs would fall out.
As a hair dresser with miracle hair saving products, to make that comment and it goes over so well with the community, says a lot. He really supports everyone being their true selves and happy in their own way. 🙌
I have lost a lot of my hair due to alopecia, seeing people make fun of lose who have little hair whether it was for a medical reason or not, really hurts. I have to constantly wear a head to cover the spot because it is extremely sensitive and I find myself feeling self conscious. Seeing Brad say that women don’t need hair is really amazing, the beauty standards for women are too high. I think if someone wants to shave there head they can and it doesn’t make them any less beautiful.
I'm sorry that you've had to deal with alopecia. I hope it gets better, or at minimum stops being so sensitive. Just know that inner beauty is what shines the most. And nobody's opinion matters more than your own. You are beautiful and having less or no hair doesn't minimize that in the slightest. 💕
Shaved heads look amazing on women, I love how more people are feeling comfortable with or without there hair. I myself haven't shaved my head just because I don't have the head shape for it, but it's definitely tempted me alot of times. Sending love to whoever reads this!
I cheered at your refreshing perspective on shaving your head. 15 years ago I decided to shave my head because I saw a co-worker do it and she looked beautiful. For about a year I shaved my head and felt more beautiful than I have with any other haircut. Instead of a really high forehead, thinning hair, cow licks instead of bangs, and constant premature grey frizz..... I was delicate, feminine, and suddenly my facial features were balanced and beautiful. In that time, I received more compliments than I have in my life and was asked for my number more often too! However.... I got really sick of all the other comments, people saying they were embarrassed to be seen with me (yes, seriously), strangers ascribing motive and having to explain to them it's just a look, and the freedom so many seemed to feel to tell me how much they hated it, like it was a challenge I had put before them or a statement for them to answer. Like shaving my head was supposed to "mean something". It's a freakin' hairstyle, world. A hairstyle.
I had severe depression in my early twenties and shaved my head because it was then easier to manage & I felt like something different because I hated my look. I loved it but everyone refers to it as my Britney moment which I find really hurtful for BOTH Britney and myself. When you're feeling crappy and do something that *you* see as a positive change, just because it's not the norm, it doesn't mean it's because we're crazy! I just wanted a bigger change/easier style while I was dealing with stuff. Thanks for affirming that we are allowed to go bald!
Thank you for calling out the "I'm having a breakdown. Let me shave my hair" stereotype. Women don't need hair!! Thank you for helping break the stigma!
@Peal yeah, it’s an easy way to feel “in control.” Changing your hair length, style, etc is something a lot people do when they feel lost and like they have little control in their circumstances. It’s a way to assert oneself while simultaneously defying society’s standards. I shaved my head when I was deep in a depressive episode just so I experience some kind of change. I felt so stuck, like nothing I did amounted to anything. But the biggest reason I shaved was because my hair is difficult to manage, and I was so depressed so it was constantly gross. It just felt more hygienic to shave it off and not worry about hair care.
To each their own. The same urge as getting wasted or turning to drugs. I never thought depression or stress or anxiety would ever make me want to cut my hair, until it did. 😒
It’s really annoying when women just want to shave their head or cut a lot of hair off or basically just change their style and everyone will be like “are you okay, did you have a breakdown or something”, the same goes for all the people who are doing something with their hair and call it mental breakdown when they just decided to change their style but mental breakdown sounds so qUiRkY🤪🤪🤪 Mental health problems and shaving your hair are not the same things. Just let women do whatever they want to their hair without having to find an excuse. Especially when women look soooo good with shaved head
@@gloomy_glamour absolutely not. Addictive is correct. Addicting is just a less formal way of saying addictive and it’s like nails on a chalkboard to me (but only because I’m a pedant who has a hard time acknowledging changing language norms). 😂
@@Perfect_Argument I’m the same!!! Haha happy to see I’m not alone. ‘Addicting’ kills my soul every time but I can’t say anything to correct anyone because it’s not wrong. ‘Addictive’ simply sounds right. Lol
"If it looks bad, I'm gonna shave it" was also my backup plan when I started doing my own hair. I lasted about a year before I actually pulled that particular trigger (not because it looked bad, I was just kinda done with having... hair). Put the 8-guard on my clippers and went to town back in June. It's been so nice having short-short hair during the summer, I just dunk my head under the tap and it's an instant halo of freshness.
I had waist long hair and went to a professional hairstylist to get a very short wolf cut (pixie cut length). And I loved the result don't get me wrong but the entire length of my hair was wasted and thrown away. Apparently they don't donate or sell hair. Due to my genes I am blessed with pretty thick and extremely healthy hair and the fact that if I would have chosen a better place to get a haircut it could have been turned into a wig for someone and would have brought them so much happiness saddens me.
I recently gave myself a wolf cut and I followed the tutorial Brad made. It was a little scary but it turned out great and I love the volume that it gave me. Thank you Brad and love the content you make!! 😊
After I had my son my hair was falling out in clumps.. so I followed your wolf cut tutorial and my hair feels so much better!! Probably isn't perfect but I needed it
I’m at the same speed girl! My daughter is 4mo and I’m loosing hair. I just copped it from middle of my back to just below my shoulders for the same reason. It’s common in the postpartum stage. Wishing you well 🙏🏻
I’ve lost so much hair since my pregnancies and I hide it with extensions. I finally made the appointment to have them removed. I can’t wait to be free of that baggage and just be myself.
Maybe it’s smth to do with the hormones! I heard your body can go through hormonal changes after birth and hormonal changes can affect the amount of hair you have! Failing out in clumps might be smth concerning since it seems like it’s affecting you a lot! Do suggest to get it checked !
I've been using the "wolf cut" method for years! I have hair down to my bum, and I found another long-haired lady who did a 5-ponytail method to get long, dramatic layers. It works really well! You use 5+ evenly separated sections, each one shorter than the last, to get layers from the low back up to the shoulder blades with a slight V-cut look. You get to keep your length, the ends looks healthy, the roots are voluminous, and the hair doesn't feel heavy! Plus, it looks beautiful 🥰
I literally never watch videos of the genre, but this one was so engaging I couldn't look away. OMG, the cut at the end!!!! That alone was worth the watch! Great video!
I remember watching your videos back in 2017 when I was in treatment for an eating disorder and you really kept a smile on my face throughout the whole process ♥️ Love you, Brad Mondo
Seeing the title and the first girl talking about thinning hair broke my heart, because I was PRAYING She ended up with a cut that she was Happy with. With thinning hair due to medication since 20, there have been so many times Ive tried cutting my hair because I didnt feel like I was worthy enough to go to a saloon to spend money on a haircut.
Thank you brad! I buzzed off my hair at the start of last month, and I am so happy now I can wear my wigs with ease, and letting my hair get heathy again. I love not having to do my hair, or worry about hair products, and if I want a style, a wig is a easy way of doing it.
as i battle with trichotillomania, its really nice to hear a hairstylist like Brad acknowledge that women do not need hair! its a breath of fresh air! thank you.
You standing up for Britney and woman was everything for me EVERYTHING. I’ve always seen you on fb but I never came to the channel . I did about three days ago an been watching for days straight since
My mom is bald and has been for 25 years. After some traumatic life events, she developed alopecia and her hair never recovered. For years, she wore wigs, but recently, she has been sporting a bald head... and looks gorgeous! She exudes confidence and has become well-known on BookTok as an audio book narrator who embraces her baldness! She always says this: WOMEN DON'T NEED TO HAVE HAIR!
this videos always show how styling is super important! and also having a sense of space and placement and stuff, cause it's not that hard to give yourself a decent haircut but it is reaaaally easy to mess it up
I shaved my head at the end of last year and someone tried to tell me not to do that because of Britney and the whole “shaving your head = breakdown” thing. I shaved my head because I WANTED TO, not because I was going through stuff. So thank you Brad for reinforcing that everyone can do whatever they want with their hair without it going back to our mental health.
YES!!! I shaved my hair and when I was ready for hair again (after about a year and a half...and during the pandemic), I loved how it grew back! The lengths were all different, the color was different, and even how it air dried was different! My hair was getting too long but I loved the layers that growing it back gave me and was not confident that anyone could get it the way I wanted, so I did the wolf cut. It did the trick but the back was longer than I wanted, so I just cut that down.
My mom has used this method of layering for YEARS. I even remember her doing it to me when I was little and then not being able to have my hair straight because it was CHOPPY
Thank you for the comment regarding Britney. Let's STOP using her as an example every time we talk about mental breakdown hair situations. She deserves better ❤️
Cutting your hair wet may work for straight hair but if you're going for a certain hair shape and you have curly hair, doing it dry is definitely better as my personal preference
I'm a retired hairdresser from the 70s.... This "wolf cut" thing is just a Farrah Fawcett long shag. We used to cut them the same way: pull all the hair uip in a pony tail on top of the head, not at the bang/forehead, and cut it about 6-8 inches from the elastic.. So what is the "wolf cut" thing?? There really is nothing new under the sun....
You're honestly my favorite person, women don't need hair, or when people think shaving your head equals mental break down. It needs to be said, it needs to be normalized. It needs to stop being a "joke" for everyone to just throw out there. I dyed my hair blue and a good majority commented thinking I had a mental break down or I did it because I broke up with my ex. Can I not do stuff for me? People are allowed to change their look just for them, we need something to be happy about and if it happens to be hair then so be it.
And even if it is because someone broke up with someone or is going through a life change, it's not a sign of bad mental health to change up something in your appearance. It can be a healthy way to cope. I dyed my hair purple with teal underneath and shaved half my head when my ex broke up with me. It wasn't because I was in a bad mental space it just felt like a refreshing start to a new chapter in my life.
Exactly! I plan to cut my hair in the far future, as a symbolic way of starting anew. I love symbolism so I'm determined to do it this way, once I've finally found myself.
@@triforce_majora EXACTLY! I just wanted to do these little things for myself. Recently I chopped off my hair and the amount of comments I got was ridiculous.
@@handsupgimmeallyourcash7475 I hope you absolutely love it 🥰 it's so refreshing to do these new changes. I was always scared to have short bangs but recently I fell in love with them.
I’ve been using this method for so long to cut my hair. Some things I do is: - damp my hair first with a spray bottle - definitely use good scissors - I make 3 partitions, the first from my ear and the second from near my eyebrows. - I tie the ponytail right where my hairline starts
I still love how people take styles from 50 or 60 years ago, give it a new name and it becomes a trend. I'm not complaining, I find it funny. As it's said, everything comes back in style.
I did the one big ponytail hack, i cut above the pony and took a batch out of the middle and cut that for more layers, it turned out great bc i did it damp and as high as possible, and i added more layers 🎉🎉
I'm suffering from extreme morning sickness and your channel is the only thing that's able to get a laugh out of me when I'm feeling this crappy. Thanks for always being a shiny beacon of comedic gold. Xo
I did the same as the second girl a few months back. I was bored and my ends were looking harsh. After the 3rd section I had layers but the long in the back was still needing work so I just hacked at it. In the end I took out 6 inches and had to have my sister go back in and even it out. Overall I was happy.
I did my own "Wolf Cut", " Shag cut" whatever want to call it last year. I have really thick hair so I didn't care. I didn't go REALLY short, my hair was down to the middle of my back. I cut some, then some more, then more, adding in layers etc. My hair is naturally wavy anyway, but now with all these indiscriminate layers going on, it's thick and voluminous and looks like I curled it when I just let it air dry. After I wash my hair, I comb it out with a wide tooth comb and don't touch it again until it's dry. Then I comb it again (with my WTC) and that's it. It's nice and curly. Most people ask if I'm going out or something because, "You curled your hair and everything". I say, " I didn't curl my hair. I just took a shower, and now I'm going shopping." That never happened before I cut it.
First girl seems to be following the Paul Watts youtube tutorial. Like Brad, his tutorials are really easy to follow and come out well if you do them properly. I use this method to cut the layers in the back of my hair (but position the ponytail higher. Section the hair from the standard high point of head /ears for the back for the back and earline forward for the front). Direct the ponytail straight up to elevate the layers and put a 2nd band in while elevate at the length you want to cut. Then use Brad's over direct the front sections to the opposite side over your face technique from his curtain bang tutorial to cut and layer the front and sides of your hair. I make sure the longest front layer is the same as the shortest back layer so it all blends. That way, you get the nice layers in the back but also the swoopy long, bevelled layers in the front. Finish off by slice cutting down the edge of the layers so they are feathered and not blocky. Good technique for anyone who wants a 90s esque layered cut rather than a shag/ wolf cut as this technique keeps the length in the sides. It comes out 90s Pamela Anderson (fringe optional) rather than 70s Joan jett like a wolf cut.
I did a wolf cut at home as well,but I followed your video and I am extremely happy with the result! Thank you so much, now I will never change anything else😍❤️
Awesome job! She did not ruin her expensive wig. I tried the wolf cut yesterday on myself I have just regular natural hair and it actually turned out really well! I am going to invest in some actual hair scissors today though heat protectant and lastly something to thin out any choppiness. Using super Sharp kitchen scissors sort of did it but not quite!!
The girl who was cutting the lace front wig 😭 I've cut a wig ONCE, but it was synthetic and had no lace front, and really all I was doing was making it shorter. I would never dare to attempt to style that expensive of a wig on my own! No no no, I would go ask my Orthodox Jewish friends where they get their wigs styled and then go THERE to have it professionally done, because Orthodox Jewish women seriously have so much talent for wig styling.
Not me sitting over here rewinding for that sweet "crunch crunch crunch" sound effect. Pls tell me I'm not the only one who finds that hair cutting sound satisfying even tho it's not a good thing lmao TuT
If you haven't checked it out yet, Brad's wolf cut tutorial is awesome! I bought the hair scissors set he recommended from Amazon. The cut came out perfectly twice. But, I played with the thinning scissors that came in the set and ruined my cut. The moral of this story is to ONLY do what Brad says and don't run or play with scissors. I love Brad Mondo!
Your comment about mental breakdowns and shaving your head was so on point, I'm so happy someone you said that, man. I always think that when people say that stuff. Apart from that... Your reaction whenever people brush through their hair like they've only one day left to live...... I felt that hahaha oh man
I just did the wolf cut on myself today and it turned out great! I have very thick wavy hair so it turned out super voluminous. I was a cosmetologist many years ago so I did use hair shears, the one pony tail technique and the over-direction afterwards to blend the front 😉. Now I just need some thinning shears to create a little more texture.
As someone with alopecia who is rapidly losing their hair, hearing Brad yell “women don’t need to have hair” at me just cleansed my soul
Edit: Warning, if you have alopecia, I wouldn’t recommend reading the replies. Thanks so much to all the lovely kind people who said nice stuff, ❤ but last I saw, some people are being rude for no reason. If you have alopecia and are reading this, I hope you have a great life 💕

YASSSSS PERFECTLY SAID 💞
I had to do a group assignment at university before and somebody in my group literally put a slide in, with a photo of Brittany on, and started talking about how celebrities having 'mental breakdowns' ...
... it was a psychology degree ...
also i had a shaved head at the time :')
I just started losing all my hair to chemotherpy, my husband helped me shave the rest. I cried, he's says I'm beutiful.
"woman don't need hair." Thank u 💓
Thank u all for the nice caring words. Great news I just finished both chemo and radiation I'm cancer free.
Good luck with chemo! And your husband is a gem. Sending you healing and loving vibes!!!! ❤️
I'm sure you look stunning. Good luck with your chemo & wishing you a swift and full remission & recovery. Also, your husband sounds like a great guy. Little actions of support can make such such difference, especially when you're facing an illness like cancer.
A personal story of mine on the theme of loving support: When my mum had breast cancer she was lucky enough to not need chemo after her mastectomy but her hand swelled up from lymphedema, so her wedding ring no longer fit, she hadn't taken it off in almost 40 years until the surgery. She was devastated, but we told her we'd get her a nice necklace to wear it on, obviously she was still sad but it helped a little. She'd had complications caused by the pain meds so was in hospital 10 days instead of the 3 they expected and has never had patience for being a patient. Dad was so effected by it all, and he said to me he wanted to do something nice for her & asked if I could take him to go look for a new gold wedding band. We found one that was so pretty & perfect that when the girl in the shop got it out to show him he started crying...bittersweet, happy & sad tears (it was like getting to marry her all over again but he had the worry and sadness over the original ring no longer being wearable, and at the time not knowing how bad the cancer prognosis was yet).
When we took it too mum, he cried again, which made me cry. And then when he gave it to mum, she cried too, but it also made her so happy, it was such a small act bu it had a huge impact, and I felt incredibly honoured to have been able to be there to help him choose it. She made a full recovery but the lymphedema stuck around, so she wore the old ring on a necklace and the new ring on her hand. When Dad suddenly passed away 10 years later we went to add his wedding ring to the necklace. The "new" ring had been getting loose and she was so worried about losing it, so she was going to reluctantly add it to the chain too, on a whim she decided to try the old band again (she thought it would still be too small)...it fit perfectly once more. So since he passed she's worn the original band and the "new" band and his are together on the chain - both rings are equally as important to her. And even though it was a very difficult time when she had her surgery etc, they created that moment to share (and I also have a beautiful memory of helping my dad pick a wedding ring for my mum, I feel not many people get that privilege).
So, even though you are facing such a difficult time right now, you and your husband are creating those good (although bittersweet) memories you'll have forever, that remind you of how much you support and love each other. And hopefully one day that will be the predominant memory over all the negatives that you're currently facing. An added bonus is that I bet you're absolutely rocking that beautiful bald head (just remember to always use generous amounts of sunscreen on it, even if it doesn't seem that sunny out).
@K.I.M. 347 Sending Loving energy and wishing you a rapid recovery.
Wish you a quick recovery and a happy, healthy and long life with your amazing hubby!
You are beautiful with or without it ❤️
I had long hair as a teen but I hated dealing with it. So eventually I just shaved it, now I keep it short. It wasn’t a mental breakdown. It was a break through. I’m glad we’re starting to break the stigma of short and shaved hair
This was me. Buzzed my head years ago and kept it in a pixie-ish cut and I've now started to grow it out to a bob. My hair is so thick... there are days(many days) where I want to cave and buzz again because it's so hot(reason I buzzed it), but now it's my new challenge to stick with it and grow it out. I love seeing girls rocking the buzz cut. One of the biggest power moves of all time.
I've been wanting to shave my head for YEARS! My hair has been down to my butt practically my whole life, and I'm 29. There are a few things stopping me though. 1) I have a long, narrow head/face that's also lumpy and cone shaped. So it isn't the ideal head/face shape for a shaved head. 2) My hair is very fine and thin. So it will be flat when it grows back, and I do NOT want to style it. And 3) I've had nightmares where I shave my head and immediately panic and regret it.
My mom was forced to have short hair because her mom didn't want to deal with it. So my mom always had me had long hair. I went short in middle school and when I look back I loved it but got made fun of so much. Now I have a shave side and I have the "It's only hair it'll grow back" state of mind and it's great.
@saramichele7366 it's only hair. It'll grow back! But also wigs are a thing and are pretty fun
Good for you, I feel like my hair controls my life sometimes 😢
That first one turned out WAY better than I was expecting. As a non-hairdresser it looks superbly styled.
Thank you for speaking up against the “breakdown head-shave”. Like I know it seems small but I really hate when people perpetuate the stigma too.
1000000%%%!!!!! I was gonna say the same thing. Thank you
Came here to say this! 🙂
I shaved my head and every thought I was going crazy. Like no I just wanna be bald
Agreed 👍🏻
I agree! It’s a choice at times, it is for me (I’m female). I wear wigs and love changing them.
👏👏👏👏Brad standing up for Britney! Yesss! The narrative perpetrated by the media around Britney’s head shaving as her being “crazy” was one of the biggest enablers for her conservatorship! Let’s STOP the personal attacks on Britney and end the stigma around mental health. Well done Brad for calling this out 👏👍
Yes. Well done and well said.
This is why I love him 💛
But she was having a mental breakdown. It's well documented
she didn’t do it tho cause she was crazy or because of her breakdown, she wanted to be left over not having her picture taken everywhere she went being followed into bathrooms.
.
As a woman, who when I was 16 shaved my head (after having my dreadlocks painstakingly brushed out,btw) I appreciate the sentiment. Women who shave their heads shouldn’t be tagged as having some hysterical breakdown. It’s ridiculous. Shaving your head can be an incredibly freeing and wonderful experience.
Yeah, I did it in my 30s and it was freeing and like refreshing. And everyone around me thought that I had a mental breakdown. But no. I just did it and I liked it.
I can see how it can be freeing and refreshing but I also know that some girls do it for no other reason than the fact that they just want a shaved head. I have long hair but I think a buzzy looks amazing and fierce. 💞
I cut off my locs recently too.... and it is refreshing to see someone validate that as a freeing experience because I have been carrying some guilt ...

“Women don’t need to have hair.” Kinda… really resonated in the best way. I went to the Renaissance Festival today, and I saw sooooo many ladies with either buzz cuts or a smooth shave. One girl had on this astonishingly gorgeous ram-horn headdress, and one of her friends was helping to redraw the ivy lines and nebula swirls she’d painted on before arriving in the morning. Not a performer… just a visitor of the realm.
I liked seeing so many women with extra-short or no hair. Most of the hairbraiding spots had either small kids, or men. (Lots of Vikings-show braids. One fellow asked the hair artists to ‘just have fun with the flowers and glitter. My kids will love it, too!’)
Ren faire is such a magical place for ACCEPTANCE!! Even if you're not into sci-fi/fantasy everyone should visit a fest at some point in their lives!
Come as you are and share your own magic, they'll love it, i promise 🥰

I LOVE how he said "woman don't need hair!" It .are me so happy🤗
I shaved my head once because I did not like my hair for a very long time. I really HATED it. So I shaved it. It felt so ridiculously exhilarating the first day. I wore a wig from the salon. I just kept on watching the mirror when I got home. It was so different and new and I saw I was still beautiful. I just kept laughing. Then I woke up the next day and felt totally horrible. So I posted on my fb about it. My friends were so supportive. They sent me photos of Angelina Jolie and other actresses looking beautiful when they were bald. When I got back to work, there were mixed reactions. 😂🤣It was crazy and I felt crazy because it was so different from sociatal norms. But I felt free and beautiful. And you know what, I have a better relationship with my hair now. I now understand that my hair is under my control and I can shave or grow it out according to what I want. I am beautiful with whatever hair I have. It's just hair. ❤️
Thank you for sharing your story with us, this was wonderful to read :) great to hear what u learned about yourself and that u have supportive surroundings 🙌

Hey! ATINY? San is my bias as well 😊
I literally just did this cut myself and I am so happy with it. The first rule I followed was getting proper hair cutting scissors. The second, get it damp, the third cutting my desired length before the high ponytail. Thank you for saying shaved heads don't mean a mental break down, it can mean something different.
yeah it doesn't, if you have a really damaged hair you don't want to keep, then just shave it off
how long was your hair before the cut? i really want to do this hairstyle but my hair is kinda short rn. if i put it in the super high pony the back hairs would fall out.
@@abigailgutierrez8405 i cut about 6 inches in length for mine

Why is Brad so awesome ??!! His reactions are great. Watching people cut their hair, is stressful and relaxing, at the same time.
As a hair dresser with miracle hair saving products, to make that comment and it goes over so well with the community, says a lot. He really supports everyone being their true selves and happy in their own way. 🙌
I have lost a lot of my hair due to alopecia, seeing people make fun of lose who have little hair whether it was for a medical reason or not, really hurts. I have to constantly wear a head to cover the spot because it is extremely sensitive and I find myself feeling self conscious. Seeing Brad say that women don’t need hair is really amazing, the beauty standards for women are too high. I think if someone wants to shave there head they can and it doesn’t make them any less beautiful.
You’re gorgeous and anyone who says otherwise is just jealous
I am happy though, that many still feel BEAUTIFUL / HANDSOME even without hair… inner BEAUTY shows on the outside too! ♥️
@Makai Threads yep for sure.
I'm sorry that you've had to deal with alopecia. I hope it gets better, or at minimum stops being so sensitive. Just know that inner beauty is what shines the most. And nobody's opinion matters more than your own. You are beautiful and having less or no hair doesn't minimize that in the slightest. 💕
Shaved heads look amazing on women, I love how more people are feeling comfortable with or without there hair. I myself haven't shaved my head just because I don't have the head shape for it, but it's definitely tempted me alot of times. Sending love to whoever reads this!
I cheered at your refreshing perspective on shaving your head. 15 years ago I decided to shave my head because I saw a co-worker do it and she looked beautiful. For about a year I shaved my head and felt more beautiful than I have with any other haircut. Instead of a really high forehead, thinning hair, cow licks instead of bangs, and constant premature grey frizz..... I was delicate, feminine, and suddenly my facial features were balanced and beautiful. In that time, I received more compliments than I have in my life and was asked for my number more often too! However.... I got really sick of all the other comments, people saying they were embarrassed to be seen with me (yes, seriously), strangers ascribing motive and having to explain to them it's just a look, and the freedom so many seemed to feel to tell me how much they hated it, like it was a challenge I had put before them or a statement for them to answer. Like shaving my head was supposed to "mean something". It's a freakin' hairstyle, world. A hairstyle.
Brad’s nightmares are full of the sound of kitchen scissors hacking through hair. 😂
To be fair the last girl used fabric scissors.
You forgot the other one the rapidly brushing through hair
🤣🤣🤣🤣 really tho
I had severe depression in my early twenties and shaved my head because it was then easier to manage & I felt like something different because I hated my look. I loved it but everyone refers to it as my Britney moment which I find really hurtful for BOTH Britney and myself. When you're feeling crappy and do something that *you* see as a positive change, just because it's not the norm, it doesn't mean it's because we're crazy! I just wanted a bigger change/easier style while I was dealing with stuff. Thanks for affirming that we are allowed to go bald!
Thank you for calling out the "I'm having a breakdown. Let me shave my hair" stereotype. Women don't need hair!! Thank you for helping break the stigma!
Hell ya! And we can do what we want as it doesn't even need to be really validated or given reasons to validate the choices
@Peal yeah, it’s an easy way to feel “in control.” Changing your hair length, style, etc is something a lot people do when they feel lost and like they have little control in their circumstances. It’s a way to assert oneself while simultaneously defying society’s standards. I shaved my head when I was deep in a depressive episode just so I experience some kind of change. I felt so stuck, like nothing I did amounted to anything. But the biggest reason I shaved was because my hair is difficult to manage, and I was so depressed so it was constantly gross. It just felt more hygienic to shave it off and not worry about hair care.
To each their own. The same urge as getting wasted or turning to drugs. I never thought depression or stress or anxiety would ever make me want to cut my hair, until it did. 😒
I had my friend color my hair red for me. Her sisters friend was there and asked if I was going through a breakup. Like no I wanted red hair 😂
It’s really annoying when women just want to shave their head or cut a lot of hair off or basically just change their style and everyone will be like “are you okay, did you have a breakdown or something”, the same goes for all the people who are doing something with their hair and call it mental breakdown when they just decided to change their style but mental breakdown sounds so qUiRkY🤪🤪🤪
Mental health problems and shaving your hair are not the same things. Just let women do whatever they want to their hair without having to find an excuse. Especially when women look soooo good with shaved head
I love the first girls attitude! She is kind of confident and optimistic
And her hair actually looked good at the end!

@@gloomy_glamour absolutely not. Addictive is correct. Addicting is just a less formal way of saying addictive and it’s like nails on a chalkboard to me (but only because I’m a pedant who has a hard time acknowledging changing language norms). 😂

Not even a minute in and I’m reminded why we all need to stan brad.
"If it looks bad, I'm gonna shave it" was also my backup plan when I started doing my own hair. I lasted about a year before I actually pulled that particular trigger (not because it looked bad, I was just kinda done with having... hair). Put the 8-guard on my clippers and went to town back in June. It's been so nice having short-short hair during the summer, I just dunk my head under the tap and it's an instant halo of freshness.
The best way to finish your Sunday has to be watching a lil bit of Brad Mondo!
yess!!
I had waist long hair and went to a professional hairstylist to get a very short wolf cut (pixie cut length). And I loved the result don't get me wrong but the entire length of my hair was wasted and thrown away. Apparently they don't donate or sell hair. Due to my genes I am blessed with pretty thick and extremely healthy hair and the fact that if I would have chosen a better place to get a haircut it could have been turned into a wig for someone and would have brought them so much happiness saddens me.
Look up the organization Children with Hair Loss if you want to donate hair in the future.
I had like the exact same thing happen to me
They don’t give away human hair wigs for free. You don’t need to feel guilty.
@@thaipeanutsauce there are some organizations that do give the wigs away to children that can’t afford them.
Next time if you ever have long hair just do a big chop and tell them you want it or chop it at home then go and tell them what you want!
I recently gave myself a wolf cut and I followed the tutorial Brad made. It was a little scary but it turned out great and I love the volume that it gave me. Thank you Brad and love the content you make!! 😊
I'm not a hairdresser, but THE NOISE THE SCISSORS MADE ON THE FIRST ONE MADE ME CRY
Awww the girl with the wig is so pretty!!!! I love how the hair turned out 😍😍😍
I lost my hair randomly two years ago and still watch Brad’s videos so hearing him say women don’t need to have hair was so touching 😭💕
how do you randomly lose your hair 😭😭😭
After I had my son my hair was falling out in clumps.. so I followed your wolf cut tutorial and my hair feels so much better!! Probably isn't perfect but I needed it
That's all that matters. 👍💯
I’m at the same speed girl! My daughter is 4mo and I’m loosing hair. I just copped it from middle of my back to just below my shoulders for the same reason. It’s common in the postpartum stage. Wishing you well 🙏🏻
I’ve lost so much hair since my pregnancies and I hide it with extensions. I finally made the appointment to have them removed. I can’t wait to be free of that baggage and just be myself.
Maybe it’s smth to do with the hormones! I heard your body can go through hormonal changes after birth and hormonal changes can affect the amount of hair you have! Failing out in clumps might be smth concerning since it seems like it’s affecting you a lot! Do suggest to get it checked !
my baby is 9 months, and my hair is Just starting to grow again. the hair loss was so rough!!
I've been using the "wolf cut" method for years! I have hair down to my bum, and I found another long-haired lady who did a 5-ponytail method to get long, dramatic layers. It works really well! You use 5+ evenly separated sections, each one shorter than the last, to get layers from the low back up to the shoulder blades with a slight V-cut look. You get to keep your length, the ends looks healthy, the roots are voluminous, and the hair doesn't feel heavy! Plus, it looks beautiful 🥰
Please tag me in the video you’re talking about!! I’d love to see that tutorial
I literally never watch videos of the genre, but this one was so engaging I couldn't look away. OMG, the cut at the end!!!! That alone was worth the watch! Great video!
Yes! Thank you, Brad! I'm a woman with a buzz cut and I happen to think it looks pretty good on me.
The last girl's hair turned out GORGEOUS omg!!
Brad Mondo is the guy i put to watch when i am feeling down because i know he will always make me feel better! Love you, keep up the great work
I remember watching your videos back in 2017 when I was in treatment for an eating disorder and you really kept a smile on my face throughout the whole process ♥️ Love you, Brad Mondo
I'm glad you are in a happier place now. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Seeing the title and the first girl talking about thinning hair broke my heart, because I was PRAYING She ended up with a cut that she was Happy with. With thinning hair due to medication since 20, there have been so many times Ive tried cutting my hair because I didnt feel like I was worthy enough to go to a saloon to spend money on a haircut.
I love your guide to the wolf cut. It was really helpful to doing my daughter's hair. She loves this style.
Thank you brad! I buzzed off my hair at the start of last month, and I am so happy now I can wear my wigs with ease, and letting my hair get heathy again. I love not having to do my hair, or worry about hair products, and if I want a style, a wig is a easy way of doing it.
as i battle with trichotillomania, its really nice to hear a hairstylist like Brad acknowledge that women do not need hair! its a breath of fresh air! thank you.
The third girl is the definition of someone who's so pretty she can literally pull off any haircut. I'm jealous.
You standing up for Britney and woman was everything for me EVERYTHING. I’ve always seen you on fb but I never came to the channel . I did about three days ago an been watching for days straight since
I thought the last girl didn’t know what she was doing and that it would come out bad BUT she did it! 😮
She made it look so good!!!
My mom is bald and has been for 25 years. After some traumatic life events, she developed alopecia and her hair never recovered. For years, she wore wigs, but recently, she has been sporting a bald head... and looks gorgeous! She exudes confidence and has become well-known on BookTok as an audio book narrator who embraces her baldness! She always says this: WOMEN DON'T NEED TO HAVE HAIR!
Ty for speaking up against the “breakdown head-shave”. There is nothing wrong with a shaved head and in fact it looks GORGEOUS
this videos always show how styling is super important!
and also having a sense of space and placement and stuff, cause it's not that hard to give yourself a decent haircut but it is reaaaally easy to mess it up
Love your face when the second girl is brushing her hair! I felt your panic all the way to Switzerland 😂
I hope anyone who is going through tough times, is in the hospital, very sick, or has an injury feels better, and heals. Amen 🙏

That's amazing. So happy for you even though I don't know you. Keep it up.
I shaved my head at the end of last year and someone tried to tell me not to do that because of Britney and the whole “shaving your head = breakdown” thing. I shaved my head because I WANTED TO, not because I was going through stuff. So thank you Brad for reinforcing that everyone can do whatever they want with their hair without it going back to our mental health.
YES!!! I shaved my hair and when I was ready for hair again (after about a year and a half...and during the pandemic), I loved how it grew back! The lengths were all different, the color was different, and even how it air dried was different! My hair was getting too long but I loved the layers that growing it back gave me and was not confident that anyone could get it the way I wanted, so I did the wolf cut. It did the trick but the back was longer than I wanted, so I just cut that down.
Omg, the last one: PERFECTION!♥️💕❤️💖
My mom has used this method of layering for YEARS. I even remember her doing it to me when I was little and then not being able to have my hair straight because it was CHOPPY
This is what I was just saying to my Mom, this is how she use to layer my hair as a kid, we just called it a shag.
Thank you for the comment regarding Britney. Let's STOP using her as an example every time we talk about mental breakdown hair situations. She deserves better ❤️
Right?? It's old news ppl MOVE ON THE KARDASHIANS ARE PROB DOING SOMETHING STUPID RN!
Most definitely. She was so maligned by the media when she shaved her head, it was heartbreaking 💔
Cutting your hair wet may work for straight hair but if you're going for a certain hair shape and you have curly hair, doing it dry is definitely better as my personal preference
My hair never curls the same way twice. I cut mine myself, wet. That way I can wear it however I want.
These girls are so beautiful it doesn't matter what they do to their hair ❤️
I'm a retired hairdresser from the 70s.... This "wolf cut" thing is just a Farrah Fawcett long shag. We used to cut them the same way: pull all the hair uip in a pony tail on top of the head, not at the bang/forehead, and cut it about 6-8 inches from the elastic.. So what is the "wolf cut" thing?? There really is nothing new under the sun....
You're honestly my favorite person, women don't need hair, or when people think shaving your head equals mental break down. It needs to be said, it needs to be normalized. It needs to stop being a "joke" for everyone to just throw out there. I dyed my hair blue and a good majority commented thinking I had a mental break down or I did it because I broke up with my ex. Can I not do stuff for me? People are allowed to change their look just for them, we need something to be happy about and if it happens to be hair then so be it.
And even if it is because someone broke up with someone or is going through a life change, it's not a sign of bad mental health to change up something in your appearance. It can be a healthy way to cope. I dyed my hair purple with teal underneath and shaved half my head when my ex broke up with me. It wasn't because I was in a bad mental space it just felt like a refreshing start to a new chapter in my life.
Exactly! I plan to cut my hair in the far future, as a symbolic way of starting anew. I love symbolism so I'm determined to do it this way, once I've finally found myself.
@@triforce_majora EXACTLY! I just wanted to do these little things for myself. Recently I chopped off my hair and the amount of comments I got was ridiculous.
@@handsupgimmeallyourcash7475 I hope you absolutely love it 🥰 it's so refreshing to do these new changes. I was always scared to have short bangs but recently I fell in love with them.

Did this on my self today, looks so good. Like I have been at the hairdresser 😍
The way he's nodding though when she cusses 6:33 🤣
Brad: DAMN YOU GO GIRL
I’ve been using this method for so long to cut my hair. Some things I do is:
- damp my hair first with a spray bottle
- definitely use good scissors
- I make 3 partitions, the first from my ear and the second from near my eyebrows.
- I tie the ponytail right where my hairline starts
I still love how people take styles from 50 or 60 years ago, give it a new name and it becomes a trend. I'm not complaining, I find it funny. As it's said, everything comes back in style.

That sounds amazing 😂
OMG, the last girl had me almost in tears, I can't believe how beautiful it came out
I did the one big ponytail hack, i cut above the pony and took a batch out of the middle and cut that for more layers, it turned out great bc i did it damp and as high as possible, and i added more layers 🎉🎉
Love Brad standing up for women choices. ❤️
I'm suffering from extreme morning sickness and your channel is the only thing that's able to get a laugh out of me when I'm feeling this crappy. Thanks for always being a shiny beacon of comedic gold. Xo
I did the same as the second girl a few months back. I was bored and my ends were looking harsh. After the 3rd section I had layers but the long in the back was still needing work so I just hacked at it. In the end I took out 6 inches and had to have my sister go back in and even it out. Overall I was happy.
Did you try to talk like a 6 year old the whole time too? Just wondering.
@@ambrr_lily I forgot that step!
Me and my mom used your video on how to do a wolfcut and I love how it turned out❤
watching brad mondo is so theraupetic.. i had an existential crisis but now im watching this and im genuinely feeling better
"my hairs pretty boring" says the girl with the hair of a goddess, hair that we would all kill for lolol
exactly 😢 my 40 yo mother has more hair on her head than me...these women don't know how lucky they are
I did my own "Wolf Cut", " Shag cut" whatever want to call it last year. I have really thick hair so I didn't care. I didn't go REALLY short, my hair was down to the middle of my back. I cut some, then some more, then more, adding in layers etc. My hair is naturally wavy anyway, but now with all these indiscriminate layers going on, it's thick and voluminous and looks like I curled it when I just let it air dry. After I wash my hair, I comb it out with a wide tooth comb and don't touch it again until it's dry. Then I comb it again (with my WTC) and that's it. It's nice and curly. Most people ask if I'm going out or something because, "You curled your hair and everything". I say, " I didn't curl my hair. I just took a shower, and now I'm going shopping." That never happened before I cut it.
Brads reactions in this video are everything 🤣🤣!! I love how honest you are Brad you are such an icon and I love you!! ❤️❤️❤️ xx

I’m just here taking a moment of appreciation to Brad Mondo, for making a point about Britney. ❤ Thank you thank you thank you Brad!
as someone who has thick wavy hair i tried these layering methods (im 12) and it actually looks nice to me i love it!
It just melted my heart when Brad yelled “Women don’t need hair” as people with alopecia that would’ve touched them so deep
First girl seems to be following the Paul Watts youtube tutorial. Like Brad, his tutorials are really easy to follow and come out well if you do them properly. I use this method to cut the layers in the back of my hair (but position the ponytail higher. Section the hair from the standard high point of head /ears for the back for the back and earline forward for the front). Direct the ponytail straight up to elevate the layers and put a 2nd band in while elevate at the length you want to cut. Then use Brad's over direct the front sections to the opposite side over your face technique from his curtain bang tutorial to cut and layer the front and sides of your hair. I make sure the longest front layer is the same as the shortest back layer so it all blends. That way, you get the nice layers in the back but also the swoopy long, bevelled layers in the front. Finish off by slice cutting down the edge of the layers so they are feathered and not blocky. Good technique for anyone who wants a 90s esque layered cut rather than a shag/ wolf cut as this technique keeps the length in the sides. It comes out 90s Pamela Anderson (fringe optional) rather than 70s Joan jett like a wolf cut.
I did a wolf cut at home as well,but I followed your video and I am extremely happy with the result! Thank you so much, now I will never change anything else😍❤️
Awesome job! She did not ruin her expensive wig. I tried the wolf cut yesterday on myself I have just regular natural hair and it actually turned out really well! I am going to invest in some actual hair scissors today though heat protectant and lastly something to thin out any choppiness. Using super Sharp kitchen scissors sort of did it but not quite!!
The girl who was cutting the lace front wig 😭 I've cut a wig ONCE, but it was synthetic and had no lace front, and really all I was doing was making it shorter. I would never dare to attempt to style that expensive of a wig on my own! No no no, I would go ask my Orthodox Jewish friends where they get their wigs styled and then go THERE to have it professionally done, because Orthodox Jewish women seriously have so much talent for wig styling.
Not me sitting over here rewinding for that sweet "crunch crunch crunch" sound effect. Pls tell me I'm not the only one who finds that hair cutting sound satisfying even tho it's not a good thing lmao TuT
I love it, and it’s probably why I love cutting my hair so much. Once you start it’s so hard to stop until your trim turns into a new ‘do totally haha
I loveeeee it so satisfying
If you haven't checked it out yet, Brad's wolf cut tutorial is awesome! I bought the hair scissors set he recommended from Amazon. The cut came out perfectly twice. But, I played with the thinning scissors that came in the set and ruined my cut. The moral of this story is to ONLY do what Brad says and don't run or play with scissors. I love Brad Mondo!
Brad: “don’t cut too much, start with a little and then you can do more.
Also Brad: “CUT MORE!!!!”

Your comment about mental breakdowns and shaving your head was so on point, I'm so happy someone you said that, man. I always think that when people say that stuff.
Apart from that... Your reaction whenever people brush through their hair like they've only one day left to live...... I felt that hahaha oh man
Your videos are the only thing that helps me calm my anxiety and sleep at night. Ur the best brad.
The last girl was giving Janet Jackson in pleasure principle! I love it.
I just did the wolf cut on myself today and it turned out great! I have very thick wavy hair so it turned out super voluminous. I was a cosmetologist many years ago so I did use hair shears, the one pony tail technique and the over-direction afterwards to blend the front 😉. Now I just need some thinning shears to create a little more texture.
I've done a wolf cut by your tutorial. I did every step as you did. And it turned out great thank you so much♥️
I did the butterfly and it was awesome ❤
