    Any hairstylist who isn’t working, these kind of videos are great! We all may know how to “cut hair” but it’s good to use this time to see how other people work their craft! Let’s spread positivity! You can always come away with something new, and if you don’t agree with something you can just not do it! Cheers and love to my fellow professionals! 😘❤️🇨🇦

    Great video! Will be showing this to my clients! My advice to anyone (speaking from experience) cutting their own hair or someone Else’s:
    1) LESS is always more. You can always cut more but you can NOT glue it back on
    2) texturizing shears/thinning shears can be helpful in blending lines away
    3) for longer hair like a bob or longer, when cutting the back always cut with chin down, there a reason we always ask for you to put your head down. It’s to make sure we get the hair below the occipital bone that pops in when your head is up
    4) watch as many videos (like these) as you need to feel comfortable cutting (or coloring)
    5)remember the difference between a good hair cut and a bad one is 2 weeks! Lol jokes aside, we (stylists) will be there for you when this calms down and will make you feel Ike a rockstar again!
    😘❤️🇨🇦

    I have two boys, one college age and one in HS, both stuck at home with their parents. They like to wear their hair longish and I can usually convince them to get a haircut before a holiday. Easter is coming so I ordered a set of cutting and thinning shears from Walmart. After an hour on RUclips I finally found your video. It is EXACTLY what I needed. Besides my knowing that they wont be returning to school for another month, your video gave me the confidence I needed to try it myself. Thank you! Prayers and blessings to your family.

    I did my bf's the other week- barely a week into the salon's being closed but he was desperate. He has curly hair which took me a little longer because it's so thick, but I think curly hair hides a lot of sins thankfully! We were both pretty happy with how it came out.

  • @preciouskezz459
    @preciouskezz459 4 года назад

    Hi April, I just wanted to say a huge thank you for your videos - I have never cut a style into long hair before, and 3 weeks into isolation my daughter was desperate for a hair cut - I haven't trained or watched anything before, literally searched RUclips for a long to short cut and found your video from 4 years ago where you did your sister's hair - drastic cut! I watched the cutting step by step and watched it whilst cutting my daughter's hair (she's 15 btw). Then I read the comments from the video!!! You got a lot of negative comments and I was really disappointed for you. I went on to watch the colour and style result, and your sister looked amazing and happy!
    I am so grateful to you, and my daughter and I are both very happy. I'm going to order some thinning shears and a razor to put some layers in, as I don't have a clue how to do this with scissors, but your video has given me the confidence to try myself!

    Also, just came back from your cutting Zades hair 6 years ago when you’re talking about taking barbering in school and having to learn men’s cute WITHOUT guards. I totally agree and learned the same way. Do you have a video with using the guards though to show people to cut with them because they didn’t learn to do proper clipper/scissor over comb?

    • @dream-nz9yb
      @dream-nz9yb 4 года назад +3

      At the shortest length you would hold the comb pretty close to the head but as you go higher on the head you’ll gradually hold the comb a little further from the head to create the fade. And she said it’ll take practice so I’d start by cutting a little at a time until you get the hang of it. Hope this helps. Good luck!

I am nervous to cut his hair...but he's actually begging me. I have nice clippers. Scissors are so-so. But I have to figure this out because he's about to cut it himself if I don't do something!

    If you all want to make this much easier and faster, just use a clipper with a #8 on the top and use a #3 - 4 clipper for the sides and back . You can then blend it in with a #6 between the #8 and # 3 . No scissors required. If you want it shorter, just go down in clipper number. Its what I do and it always comes out good. Have been doing it for years now.
