Thank you for having taken the time to post these videos. Because more hairstylists need the skill and the patience that you are teaching here. I have never had a good experience at a Hair Salon and im now 35 and thats sad. Its supposed to make you feel good about yourself to go get your hair done. And you just never know who you're going to end up with. Just seeing this video will make me feel more comfortable going to a salon in the future (if i absolutely must) because I will know what they need to do.
Went in for a trim, came out with a mullet. I'm still trying to grow it back... I'm on year 2 and it's still awful 😖
I know the pain
Happened to me too 😭😭😭
Me too!! My hair was so pretty b4!I wanted smooth Farrah layers no mullet.
Me too
happened to me last month. I can't style it at all. I wanted a trim on my bob and curtain bangs. Now I John Travolta from the 70s meets Allison from Breakfast Club.
I love these layers. I messed up my hair watching another youtube video. I've done great with the unicorn cut in the past, but this was a reverse unicorn and was not right for my hair. I have a definite shelf. I'm growing it out and trying to clean up the layers following your video.
It's the clients nickel and you get paid to listen to clients that know what works for their hair. Don't forget it.
When I asked my stylist, I'd known for 15 years for a precision scissored cut on my long thick, coarse 2b curl hair - she hacked my hair with thinning shears & a "blending shear" to the point their were holes and massive chunks that didn't remotely blend. She whacked 4 inches off the bottom with 3 slices of the scissors..even I would have taken more care at home. My stomach went up in my throat, & face began turning red. The weight line she created was around my ears , my hair was mid back in length . She destroyed any curl pattern my hari naturally had - the thinned out hair she said was "layered" didn't connect with the bottom, so it was like I had 2 cuts going on. I asked her in the beginning about the angles ( 45/ 90 etc) because I trimmed my hair my self for years & it looked very good. She said she didnt know what I was talking about - She'd been cutting for over 25 years. 25 years and doesn't know basic geometry to follow a guide for layering? Covid taught me how to cut my hair at home and will never ever pay to be butchered again. To add insult on injury, she told me my gray hairs were what was causing it to behave badly after she blowdried it. It looked like barbie hair cut by a childs safety scissors. This was the owner of the salon, that did this to my hair. No where to turn.
I did exactly this trying to trim my own hair 🤦♀️ I’m going to try and fix it myself following your guide wish me luck 😂
How'd it go???
Same lol! Gonna try to fix it today.
@@sezakow1did it grow out?
@@cybernezuko I ended up cutting it into a pixie and I’m starting fresh. It’s annoying, but that’s what I get for trying to cut it myself lol
Thanks for this tutorial, Steven! I’ve been watching you for several years now and I don’t know how I missed this one. I haven’t had a decent haircut in over 5 years and as a result have various issues going on with my hair. The main one that drives me insane is a “shelf” on the back of my head!🤬 Thanks to this tutorial, it is now gone 🤗🤗 and I did it myself!! You give such clear and precise instructions in all your videos and I really appreciate that as I’m sure many people do. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with all of us!!!❤️❤️
Man you're the best! Even giving advice about finding a good hairdresser
After reading lots of these comments no wonder people are scared to go to the salons. Why can’t there be more professional hairstylists like you around.
This is so spot on!! I have thick, wiry hair and for the past decade or so, I have received one shitty haircut after another!! No matter how many salons I have been to! So sick and tired of getting choppy, chunky layers making my hair butchered!! Hair dressers seem to always do the opposite of what I tell them to do!
I sometimes struggle as a stylist with this very thing. Thank you for sharing!
EXACTLY!!! This is what I am talking about! The haircut! Not just little section in front.
Got my haircut, long thick beautiful black hair. Needed some layering in the fruit and a trim. The guy has been cutting hair for 40 years. He blowdried foreverrrrr I could smell it burning! Went home thought it looked fine. When I washed it then I could tell how choppy the layers are. These are face framing layers, uneven and choppy, ughh I bought a pair of hair cutting scissors but don’t know if I can fix it myself. I’ve had many bad haircuts, all of them special!!! Never had one so choppy before so this is a new one
You are Amazing! I had such a horrible experience recently My hairdresser retired . I went to a hairdresser I had never been to at the same salon. I wanted to get my hair relayered and even get the "butterfly layers " I had been growing my hair out for 3yrs and haven't even dyed it, I would occasionally get my split ends cut and for once I was so happy and confident with my hair but wanted a little movement. When I went to this new hair dresser I noticed she was having a bad day and ruined my hair. She had a bad posture when she was cuting my hair she even seemed mad. The end result was uneven choppy layers she took off over 12 inches in length ( even though I told her not to take off more than 3 inches ) the shortest layer was supposed to be by my chin or mouth and ended up being by my eye. This is the worst haircut I've ever had. 😫 All I could do was cringe as she tried to over correct my hair when it was all over the owner even who I've known for over 18 yrs was surprised that my hair was so short. I was in such a state of shock and frustration I didn't say a word. I just gave a thumbs up and paid. After.2 mos I finally grew it out enough to get it possibly fixed but am so paranoid in getting my hair cut because of what happened. Looking back at your video I see that she didn't have the right posture, when she was cutting my layers she wasn't blending my layers and they look so stringy. To the point that It doesn't even fall into place. I have what looks like a mullet. But thanks to your video I have an idea of what to look for when I get my hair relayered
This is my story to a T. Meaning the exact same thing happened and I'm starting to think the butterfly has flown for the last time because the shelf on the back of my head is awful, I'm getting ready to try to fix it and blend what I can and my hair was a couple inches above my waist and now it's right at my bra line, several inches taken off just for wanting layers, wish me luck 😢
You described all of those problems precisely. Just had the bad haircut yesterday from a very bad hairstylist. Not even really fully sectioned my hair when he cut it. 😒
I tried the new pigtail cut. I didn't get them evenly placed on my head unfortunately, so one side has shorter layers than the other side. Thankfully the overall look seems even-ish and I didn't take off too much. My hair is wavy so it helps hide it for now. But now I have to wait at least 6 months for it to grow out enough to get it fixed without losing too much length. 😭
I got my hair yesterday and the stylist asked me how I wanted it cut. I said light layering and to cut off 1 inch for the length. I have a basic bob with long layers but yesterday, she butchered my hair and made it uneven and got more layering than what I wanted. The shape is gone and not there! Now I have to get my hair redone somewhere else.
Also I want to add that I felt rushed because she was the only stylist in the store. It was not a dedicated session to cutting my hair. I have a few longer strands along the bottom that she did not get!
My hair is almost all white. It's fine but I have alot so I've been told. It's very straight. I did the two pig tale cut to shorten my hair. Now I want layers like this on each side I'm going to try it myself. Wish me luck...lol
I went in to get a cut and color about to my collar bone, maybe shoulder. I wanted curtain bangs; I also knew that the picture I showed her was of a girl who had thinner hair than me (literally every picture I ever show is of thinner hair; I want more thick hair with good examples of cuts), and I was fully ready to tell her I understood and just do what you could to make it similar. She didn't say anything to me. She just said, "Oh, cute," and proceeded to put the highlights in the wrong spot for my part (very beautiful highlights, though) and then chunked the hell out of my hair to almost my ears. She styled it in a way where I was like, it's not so bad.. . But when I washed my hair, my bangs were fully just a shelf of hair around my head. And it was funny, cause she joked about Brad Mondo ruining people's hair and I spent probably 250 dollars getting her cut fixed somewhere else 😅
omggg
I have been through all that you spoke of. I've been to at least 20 salons in 10 years. I research, take a photo in, even gone to stylists that have been recommended and somehow or another they "F" my hair up.
I've paid as little as $30 clear up to $200. Price doesn't seem to matter when it comes to their capabilities. Guess I'll let my hair grow all one length and cut it myself. 😪
I used to pay my stylist less then $50 for extremely beautiful layers for about 25 years he’s not here any longer
I’ve been going to a salon in New York for over a year paying $300 to $600 on really.. really awful layers it looks like Edward scissor hand chopped my hair
Asked for a undercut and walked out looking like Kim Jong un
I have the absolute WORST haircut. I brought in a picture of a cool shag, evenly weighted throughout. She managed to give me a shallow bowl cut on top of my head, completely disconnected to the "layers" she botched below, by using thinning shears WAY TOO MUCH!!! I look terrible!!! Now, I have a shallow bowl shelf, with thin hair below my ears. OMG! I want to crawl under a rock and DIE!!!
Had my hair at almost all sam e lenght. Wanted some soft layers and curtain bangs and walked out like a longer Version as the doll in the beginning. Not blended at all. My hair looked like or was damaged after the cut.
Before that another stylst messed up where I only wanted just a trim without layers and it was not equal and in one side it looked like a rektangle was missing.
I'll share. I have trichotillomenia, And I'm growing back the whole top all the way to The Crown ! So my hair is very uneven but I have been trimming it myself, I was licensed in New Jersey and New York. I have thirty years As a hairdresser,, But I seem to have forgotten how to cut or blend in my layers.
I had my hair layered and I have a side parting. The side away from my parting looks completely different to the parting side, which looks lovely it has no layers. I have to curl it all the time because it just doesn't look even. I looked this up and many hairdressers seem to say that with a dide parting this always happens but it's never happened to me before. I moved and have a new hairdresser, should I find another?
I tried the diy wolfcut. A few months later i have straightened it and seen that I now have choppy uneven layers that need blending
My mom gave me a bowl cut and its all different lengths, I dont know whether to cut it or let it grow out, please help
I went into a stylist and showed them a picture of the "wolf cut" i wanted. well they messed it up baaadd. the back layer is noticably really slanted, they layered one side of my hair pretty good, THEN THEY COMPLETLEY SKIPPED LAYERING THE OTHER SIDE.
I give up..lost a lot of hair due to thyriod..anyway..i sat down and explained..had one good haircut and then went back and have been in hiding depressed, i waited 3 years for one good cut , now i have to wait all over
And i can complain to anyone because the owner cut it
Happened to me!! Just a 6 mo trim! Always soft. But stylist had an off dvay !! I wasn't confident! Everyone has off days!@ razor cut on rt side!! I never had a razor to my hair! Now howdy!! I Cromwell ct!! Friz!!
I showed a photo of a beautifully layered long hair. Came out of the salon with an almost octopus layered haircut. I have half of my long hair cut short and half of my hair looking like a tail.
I got my hair layered and the sides are ok but the back seems to want to all flow in one direction in the back so it looks wrong. I think my hair was to thin for this cut. I have had it cut 5 times and no one know how to cut hair. Now I feel like I have to cut all the back off.
How do I fix my hair from bunching up and flipping out every where salon guy it’s really annoying cause it’ll be went and straight and look amazing and then it dries and then flips out everywhere how do I fix this
Please, could you do the Gerard Way in red?
I can't find a tutorial anywhere.
Thats exactly what i want. God i wish you could cut my hair. Its a mess . Its perfect
Thank you for your tutorial. Followed every steps and I did it! At least I made it to make the layers blend better than before. Now I need lots of patient for my hair to grow back. 🥲
What can I do if top is uneven. I lift it and on side, is shorter, WHAT CAN I DO, cause I still want to keep the length so I can wear my hair up. Ugh.
I am facing same problem.... badly uneven layered.. please do let me know how to do it DIY
Did it grow out?
I had my sister (who never fully finished beauty school) make my hair blonde, but only the top half. So I have a very strong foundation and the underneath part of my hair is almost down to my butt. I've been growing it out for 7 years and it's finally to the length that I want it to be at. But when she layered it, there was no balance. There was way too much space between the longest part of my hair and where she started layering above that. And then, after all the toning that I've been doing over the last couple of years, my hair has been breaking but only the blonde part, the top half, so the layers have continuously gotten shorter and shorter. The part of my hair underneath, my foundation, is naturally dark brown and healthy. And like I said, it's almost down to my butt, but my shortest layer is about chin length at this point! It would make me cry if I had to lose any of the length because it's taken me so long to get my hair back to this. And I know it's my own fault for going blonde in the first place and not knowing how to take better care of it after bleaching. But since all the breakage, I want it to look better because my hair is very naturally thick and when I straighten it I have people asking me if my hair is real. And I didn't understand why they were asking that until a few weeeks ago when I noticed how much longer the dark part of my hair is than the rest of it and it looks like I'm wearing hair extensions that do not blend in with the rest of "my" hair. I have been cutting some of my own split ends off. But I feel like that made my hair look even worse because it seems like the frizzy ends were what we're helping it look at least a little bit more blended, but they obviously had to go. So I don't know what to do now because I do not trust anybody else to touch my hair. And I'm not a hairstylist. I've always done my own hair but I am afraid to cut it by myself when its like this because i could easily make it even worse. But every time I have been to a Hair Salon, my stylist has always done whatever they wanted to do instead of what I asked for and I have never had a good experience at a Hair Salon. So I do not want to risk getting all of my hair cut off because they don't have the patience or skill that you do.
Please Help! 🥺
You could do Liam Gallagher's 2000's haircut at Wembley, the hair was biblical
I like that fact fact of turning the chair, Now how do I work that on my own head😂
I just asked for layers, I said I wanted an emo cut and they were excited about it and I don’t them how short. I didint ask for anything specific it came out really choppy and uneven, they were going pretty fast and not measuring I noticed
I cut my sister in laws hair but she has extremely thick hair and when I cut layers in the front it looks choppy and now I would like to fix it and I am unsure how to do that.
Can you do a video on how to get Bon Jovi’s 80’s hairstyle?
80s rock star style. I want that with curly hair. Like Slash (Gun N' Roses)
I just did a medium shag cut on myself with a tutorial, of course. I was careful to do exactly what the guy said to do, which included sectioning off a certain way. Problem is....my hair was not all one length at the time that i did this, like his "Mannie Quinn" s was....as that one stylists says....lol. Anyhoo, so that meant that when i cut the sides of my head, there were shorter pieces that were not included into that one cut on each side of my head. So now, I am trying to somehow fix that. What i was wondering is......when you are doing all of this "layer fixing " and just grabbing all of these sections randomly, with seemingly no real organized or particular fashion....it makes me nervous...lol So, i guess my question here is.....when doing this, its not about the section size or location or direction that matters of what your grabbing, its just making sure that you keep your fingers straight and cut the line of hair even (using your shortest hair in that bunch as your guide to cut the rest)?? Thank you........
My question exactly!
Ugh uneven layers drive me nuts and led me to a pixie cut.
Not that I don’t like it but it wasn’t the plan.
Keep in mind if your hair is wavy you might think it’s uneven but the curl pattern plays a big factor.
Ive experienced this at chatters Hillside Mall in Victoria bc. I asked for a trim. It wasn't done barely at all. Called again and wanted more layering and volume. She butchered it :(
Which hairstyle would u recommend if I have a long hair but my 2 blocks are cut
I Am A Butcher Job…. 😑😂
First she asked me if I wanted my haircut dry cut or washed and then cut 😳 I chose wet because I really trusted her and well the person that used to cut my hair did so. Then, she continued to ask me what I wanted, and I just wanted a trim. Take in consideration I have really thick hair and lots of it, and my hair was 3 to 4 inches longer than the maniquin’s. I told her, I didn’t want layers but she ended up convincing me. She said she had to take a good amount of hair and ended up being exactly like this! Choppy, with no mullet, and that top layers are about an inch longer. I wasn’t mad at it really due to I wanted the rest of bleached over processed tips gone, and they where ☺️that was the only thing I’m still excited for but now the next morning, I’m trying to figure out if I should go back to her( but what if she ends up finalizing the butcher) or should I go somewhere else? FYI : she didn’t blow out my hair at the end. I just needed some TLC man… smh
Madre mía, tu🥰 Sí que sabes ese esa es la clave, no todos los peluqueros saben.🤨
you should do william zabkas hairstyle from karate kid
yes!!
My hair used to be a mullet and it's grown out exactly like that but the problem is that my hair is straight but extremely thick especially on the sides- I seriously don't know how to fix it without going short again which I I don't want to do! And when it blows in the wind the shorter layers up top are then very visible and I hate it. Any suggestions please I beg
SAME 💀 ITS SUCH A PAIN IN THE WIND AND HUMIDITY!! PLUS HAVING THICK AND DRY HAIR MAKES IT WORSE 😭
In my 58 yrs only 1 person has ever layered my hair correctly. My hair is every botched job you just did in this video. It is completely destroyed and noone can fix it. Your skin would cringe and crawl if you saw my hair!
Me too. 😪😖
I can relate
I'm with you. I feel like shaving it off!
@@moniquewassner5179 I got a short pixie( think Mia Farrow) after getting totally sick of obsessing over hair. I love it and I’m no longer stressed.
My little brother cut my hair and i tried to fix it and it came out like a pixie cut with long hair under and now im trying to hide but im still crying 😭😭😭😭
Where are you located? I cannot get a decent haircut!
Went in to get a trim on my bob and curtain bangs and walked out with John Travolta from the 70s meets Allison from Breakfast Club, because she tried to debulk some of my hair so I wouldn't look like Dora. But she gave me so many choppy, unblended layers :( It's impossible to style!
Bro can you do Tate Langdon haircut
My stylist butcheres my hair when I asked for a trim.....my hair is ruined and I've had to cancel all my plans
My hair looks like it's been fryed off
Lesson learned
I tried the ponytail haircut and it's so uneven I don't know what to do now I'm thinking of going bald 💀
I I did same thing. I been cutting my own hair for long time as it is fine, & this time I messed up the top of my hair in with bangs & keep trying to do it dry see where I can go around the shores peices and not cutting the shorter pieces & still looks scrappy. I hate it & scared to go shorter to just even it
Me too and now the top is way too short
1:53 I asked my barber . not to cut my hair short and he did and he also gave me a baby super man curl in the front I was exploding in rage inside
😂😂 not laughing at you but this comment is hilarious
You just showed me exactly what happened to me
I had stylists to twist my hair up and chop layers one side was uneven
I went for a trim and put full trust on my hair dresser but i find it so un even
How do i know if another stylist isn't gonna beable fix this butchered hair of mine 😢
Those who love mullets say business in the front and party in the back… the rest of us say one should never mix business and pleasure 😢 I’m so sorry that happened too you! Hopefully your hair will grow quickly… but take it from someone who knows don’t become your own hairdresser!
I'm practicing the 90° state board haircut on my dolly. She's a hot mess. Good for me she doesn't complain.
My license expired 30+ years ago. Now I want to reinstate it and I need practice. This haircut is tough.
Maybe because I have a (gasp) cheap eBay head with synthetic hair...but I really think it's a technique problem. I measured my comb at the nape and worked up to the front.
When checking through it, parts were longer by 2 inches. I think I lost my guide. The synthetic hair actually is nice. I can wash it and dry it on low settings. For cheap, it's not too bad.
I have more expensive name brand maniquines with real human hair. I don't want to butcher them yet.
Tennessee, wants us to start at the nape and use a razor "somewhere" in the cut. It's not very specific about the razor part. Most of the cut is done with scissors.
Hi I asked for long layers only about an inch from bottom layers went up about 3 or 4 inches on 1 side and layers were shorter on 1 side than other..underneath my hair on one side she layered up that 1 side. Is this called step layering? I have no idea what it is. When I asked stylist she said because my hair has a deep part and that why layers are shorter on 1 side? I never heard of that..I noticed it was uneven shorter on 1 side and she didn't want to admit it
@@lindabrown5359 I posted my comment 9 months ago...good news is that I'm actually improving.
The human hair mannequin is so much better than the synthetic hair. I can actually see the difference. I'm still practicing before I work on people.
You were talking about me what you said in the beginning the worst haircut and hasn’t been right right ever since
You probably hit the nail on the head, client probably driving the stylist crazy, it was hacked on purpose so she don't come back.haha On a serious note, I work in blow dry salon, some people nowadays are rude.
Please do Billie Eilish new hair
Well I had real long hair ,and I started a lawn mowing business .and it ended up not so profitable,so I'm mowing all these clients alone and I got so sweaty and hot .I tryed to shorten my hair .and it kept looking worse the more I cut on it ,now my hair is up to my neck all uneven looks like a four year old cut my hair .I won't even look in the mirror.i don't have enough money to go to a salon here is a pic ,I wish I could send u a pic .I like this manicans hair could u show me that how to do

@@claudettetooley sorry bout that lol
i sat with my leg up while having my hair cut and it’s a wolf cut, and the right said of my hair is uneven i hate my life bro
Pretty sure I strong armed mine into giving me a mullet…over and over again 😂 I thought I knew, still trying to explain what I want and never gets through 🤷🏻♀️
My stylist ruined my layers he had no idea what he was doing so I didn’t tip him I was crying when I got home
Same… I am just growing them now
@@simrankang2517 🌻🙏🏼Best of luck to us both.. 💕
i hacked my own hair at home trying to add layers and people at the salons never fix it right i wanna do it myself at home and fix it 😢
I have very thick hair like the mannequin. My hair is curly and I blow it dry to get it relatively straight.. I need long layers from the top down to take off the weight. My hairdresser has cut little tiny layers at the bottom which triangles it out and makes it heavy. The last time she cut super short layers on top and razor cut the sides. I have been to her for 20 years. I always take a picture. I always ask her, "will my hair do this". My hair never looks like the pic. I want my hair to look like your mannequin.
I don’t think the mannequin has thick hair…
I went in with beautiful locks and all I wanted was a trim she cut off 4 inches I have very wavy frizzy hair and she took too much hair from top not blend and now I look a mushroom I hate it will never return to salon again I will cut my own hair and not have to pay 100 for messed up haircut!
Vinnie hacker New haircut?
This is the only haircut they teach you in school for a reason. To learn how to blend hair. These girls are getting out of school and point cutting…… that’s how they didn’t learn how to cut hair in the first place. Will you cut my hair please….. I am a barber I’ll shave your head! Hot steam towel the works!
Being a barber and my hair is blonde this is very difficult. My hair is so butchered right now. They layered into my guide… I got a couple pieces hanging back there😢sooo many holes and corners. I’m afraid to get it cut as I’m currently almost out of hair. Please help me!
Ric Flair hair
Styling, profiling, WOO!
Im so mad my hairdresser made me get layers!😡😡😡 my front is too short and back too long I asked just a trim a tiny trim and she gots too much!
Well someone cut my hair when I went to sleep that's what happened 100%
The last stylist butchered my hair, it looks like the jacked up “Rachel” cut
no i just cut it by myself at home with no experience
ياكثر سوالفك قص وانت ساكت
i look so bad now😭😡😩😓😞😣😢😥
I am being realistic. I know that the cut on the mannequin will work on my hair. I just can't get my hairdresser to get it right.
Lol cuz ur Head is uneven sometimes. Or maybe ur going to a chop shop.
It took him 16 minutes and 49 seconds to say nothing
It's not really explaining the difference between what you're doing to fix it. It's kind of the same.
Butcher job 😂 smh, I let my cousin cut it while buzzed….. end of story.
First
I cannot stand 95 degree layered cuts. I prefer 45%.
