    For all of the people who are saying the stylist cut too much off. . . this is a TAPERED CUT its meant to be short at the back/bottom and longer at the top. This stylist did a great job cutting her hair. Some of yall have a grudge up against stylist thinking that there the devil. Not all stylist cut off too much hair. LOL

    • @BUBBZI05
      @BUBBZI05 8 років тому +25

      I agree, but didn't the stylist say a "grown out" tapered cut? I honestly though she wasn't going to take off that much. It's still looks good on Chizi though. It looked like she was going to cry :( , but like I said it is still a really cute cut.

      Usually a taper would be cut WAY low but hers is not. It was cut correctly to be grown out. @Stephanie

    My dearest Chizi ! This same EXACT thing happened to me two years ago! Girl don't even sweat it. First of all, the style is beautiful and you LOOK beautiful with it! Rock on! Secondly, it will grow back before you know it. I have type 4 b/c hair just like you do. I want to encourage you that your hair will grow out quickly so don't worry. Thirdly, while you wait for it to grow out you can either wear extensions for two to three week periods ( with breaks in between ) like i did, OR you can be better than me and be confident with your beautiful cut and style the hell out of it! Who knows, after having it short for a while, when it grows back you might very well decide you liked it better short! After cutting my shoulder length natural hair ( way too short) and it grew right back, i eventually cut it again ( with a different stylist) and got it right the second time. Mine is now a grown out taper/bob style and i like it better than shoulder length. I'm just saying give the cut a chance....see how it goes. You might grow to love it and keep it.

  • @TemptressMoon

    AHHH!!!! So first things first... THE SHRINKAGE IS REALLLLLL. That's all I thought about during the beginning of this watching her cut your hair!! 4c probs 😩 but this video was super helpful for me as I am growing out my hair and it looks basically like your cut you just got!! I struggle with using perm rods on the shorter sides but this gave me a better view of how I should be doing it! Jane carter is the product I use also, so I was even more excited to see that's what she used on you!! I'll have to film my efforts. Thank you so much for this vid!!

  • @Alexsh2010
    @Alexsh2010 8 років тому +8

    I love this!!! And honestly it doesn't really look like she cut that much off. It probably appears that way because it in a curly style. I'm sure if you picked it out right now it would be a lot longer looking lol. Nonetheless, this is cute you better rock this hair girl!

    @jysmonejohnson9004 6 років тому

    Chizi! Can you do a video all about cutting 4C hair?????!!! And advice and how you felt after? And also how long it took to grow back? I’m seriously thinking about it and we have the exact hair type girl! Lol. it’s harder to find videos about cutting natural hair, 4C in particular. My hairs about medium length, it passes just over my collar bone
    Sometimes I feel like since I have kinkier hair, it won’t look as good and I’ll look like my brother lol. I think I might be a little too attached to my hair and I wanna break free from that cause honestly HAIR IS JUST HAIR 🤷🏿‍♀️but I would love to hear about your firsthand experience and then I can make the decision for myself.
    Love you Chizi! Keep doing your thing!💕💕

    If you're worried about the inches, yes its short. However, that cut looks great on you!

    Hi. Is it better to trim hair when its still wet and in its shrunken state or straight and blown out?. How will she know that she has evenly cut it?
