    I have curly hair and high density hair so styling it with a comb is really hard even with conditioner or water to soften the hair strands, this vid helped me a lot and now know the solution to it only matter is there are no professional stylists or barber who knows how to do this in my town.

    Be wary if a stylist suggest thinning your hair. New one did that to me today, I now look like I have a thin hair problem! And my hair was thick. I think I just needed a few layers, but she went to town in just 3 quick zips! It will take a good year to regrow the damage she did today.

    I have thick hair and they always want to thin out my hair but the hair doesn't bother me unless it's hanging in my eyes. The length of the hair weighs it down. I tried thinning out my bangs but it's temporary. Your hair always goes back to how it was naturally.

I finally bought a razor and have started trying it myself after watching your videos. It's a little better but the back is so hard to do.

    I already have thin hair and my barber always thin me more. I always told him that i want thick hair and he always thin my hair. I change barber almost every time and they are all the same

    What did you do for your hair. It looks like you have hair. Is it colored on or tattooed. Very curious. It looks like you have a hair line of a high schooler

    In your video from June 1 you said you are not a fan of the multiple light chomps, instead you let the hair fall and do one big chomp. Here you use multiple small cuts. Which one is better? Why are you using light cuts now?

      different type of cut, different technique
