I’m here because i’m in quarantaine due to corona but i NEED.MY.HAIR.SHORT i am sick of long hair, and i’ll be stuck here for a while so hopefully i’ll cut my hair decently lol Edit: i’ve cut it today! It actually turned out pretty well! I finally have short hair yayyy i’m glad don’t have to wait until i’m out of quarantine lol
leviOsa me too. i have never cut my own hair or dyed it EVER but now i am thinking about doing both 😂 a year ago i would have said hell no, but things change i guess.
Update: I did cut my hair using this video! It turned out awesome, and even got approval from a hairdresser acquaintance (after being chastised for not letting HER get the satisfaction of cutting off that length haha!) Totally recommend!
Caitlin Crossman I actually did that in real life no joke I took kid scissors and literally just cut it with out anything but craft scissors but it actually turned out good lmfao 😂
I just did this to mine using your instructions and it looks AWESOME! No one would be able to tell I did it myself! Cut off about 4.5” (I had to have my husband help remove the “point” in the back so it was all straight). I never want to pay for a haircut again! Thank you!!
Just tried this and Thanks! Cut 8 inches off - now I feel so light! And without the heavy burden of paying so much at a salon. Will defo do this again x
It’s been a rough week mentally, feeling super out of control and needing something to close out his anxiety. Came across this and cut 6 inches off of my hair. I feel refreshed and alive at midnight. Thank you girl. ♥️
Michael Jet engine um so can you not disrespect other people’s religions? you don’t see me over here going “lol the big bang is so stupid anyone who believes it is dumb” or something like that but seriously bruh, that was really rude
I decided to try your tutorial. And I love it! My hair has had a grown out bob for about a year and a half now. I followed along with you and I cut maybe a half inch shorter than yours because my back layer wasn’t as long. I showed it to my husband and he was really impressed with how I did. This is the first time I have EVER cut my hair and I am 37 years old. But you did a great job making this video and making it easy to see and understand. Liked, commented and subscribed to help support! Thank you!
I did this today and come out so nice! 85% Professional cut ✂ No one would even know I cut it my shelf. Sh... Dont say anything. But thank you so much! I needed this ;) Tips: The back will look longer so ask an adult to cut it, just thr back part. With scissors cutting up.. Vertical. And blend blend blend.. Until you get a both sides the same length.
Your instructions are so helpful! I just did this yesterday and cut off 8+ inches off my hair! It feels so light and healthy now. I love it! I especially appreciate the tips to prevent the v-shape in the back. My family can't believe that I used a RUclips video to cut my hair, but I have this saved now and will come back again and again! Thank you - Thank you!!!
for those of u who r having a mental breakdown: it's okay, you're really loved and you're beautiful just the way you are inside and out but have fun with ur new hair take care 💖
Having a mental break and dont want to spend 80$ at a salon for something I can do myself, thanks to your help!!! Thank you so much, I am already feeling lighter without these dead ends.
My hair was to the back of my knees. It had never been cut aside from my split ends for all of my life, which was 1998-2016. She used to tell me I wasnt allowed to because it was her hair because she gave birth to me. I eventually just chopped it all off myself because I'm 5'11, so my hair was LONG! I ended up chopping it all off because I was tired if it. My mom didn't talk to me for a whole ass week. My hair is all the way down to my mif back now and I'm going to be cutting it again.
betsaida morales I’m the in the same boat! In isolation, my hair’s in desperate need of a cut after hair extensions and I’m aware it could be months before I can get to salon with all the social distancing!!!
Okay I have tried it. I really underestimated how long it took. It took me about 1.5 hour! In the beginning it was really hard to cut while looking in the mirror because I am not used to mirror my movements, take this into account! Also the back is the hardest part. I cut my hair above my shoulder, so it is really short now and I am still not 100% happy with it, although I expected worse when I was a few minutes into it. So actually it turned out quite okay I think. Oh and one tip, use a water spray or some other water based spray to make your hair straighter, this really helped for me!
Kristina Ingersoll When she said she has dry hair I laughed so hard like girl you don't know how dry hair look like trust me. You should see my hair and VERY GOOD VIDEO BTW👍
Followed this video during social isolation and my hair came out beautifully! Had to tweak it a bit more and got some help from my boyfriend making the back straighter. Definitely needed the confidence boost with everything going on in the world. Most importantly I’m grateful with life for our health and praying for everyone else’s wellbeing.
Thank you SO MUCH!!! This video was exactly what I needed. Easy, short, to the point. AND I LOVE MY NEW HAIRCUT! Thank you for empowering me to do this myself!! God bless!!
I bought some $20 hair scissors on amazon and have used your technique a few times for the last 6 months to super good results. My gf and friends compliment me regularly. Thanks for your great advice!!
I just did this and it worked. My two cents: cut LESS than what you are going for. I took two inches off and it looks good. I wish i could have cut a tiny bit less but Im sure Itll grow back to the length i was going for within a couple of months.
Thank u! This will show my husband for not letting me go back to the salon because he doesn’t like me getting my hair cut short! Also this is a better idea because I once had a hair dresser get nervous about me telling her what length I wanted my hair. She look at my husband & was nervous. So glad the last lady that did my hair had no fear & just cut my hair the length I wanted. Yeah my husband gave me a hard time about it, but I was happy & comfortable with my short hair. So thank you for this video. U have no idea how many ppl u are helping! ❤️
I did it....I finally did. I have cut my hair following this video and it turned out really nice and i posted my new look....and right now my phone is filled with notifications of compliments.
I used this today. First haircut in a year because of Covid. I was worried but figured if I screwed it up I could wear it up or go to a salon, but tbh it’s perfect!
Wow, this is very nicely cut hair. This looks so professionally done, that I'm afraid if more people know this, stylists would lose their jobs/businesses. BTW, I'm a guy, and I love it.
So happy to find this post!! Other self-haircut posts show cutting the hair after you comb your hair upside down and tie it, causing the hair close to your face to be too short. This method results in an even-cut hairstyle.
I'm glad I stumbled upon this video, she's doing a pretty good job. She taught me a few things! I was just going to wing cutting my hair just now. I can cut the top crown of my hair with no problems. My length is way to long and in need of a good cut. My husband always cuts the back of my hair across the bottom to make sure it's all even going across! But I never let him cut more than 1/2 an inch off the length. Right now? Since it's late & my hair's all wet after my shower? After watching her cutting her hair? I decided to cut my hair tomorrow while I'm watching this video. I'm going to try cutting my length of my hair, for the first time I'm cutting over 10-12 inches off the length! That is a huge number for me! LoL. Good luck to all of you who are cutting your own hair today, tonight or whenever you decide to cut it off! Lots of Brave souls in here! 💞 Here's a tip, "Don't cut your hair while drinking booze, or when you're mad, or when you're having abad hair day! Been there done that! No joke! It'll cost you more in the long run!!🤔 🤗 Have a good one.
Holy shit, my hair has gotten soo long and I was literally going insane because I wanted to just chop it all off. I just did this following your tutorial and I swear, I‘ve never been so happy! It looks so good, and I feel so much better. This has been such a relief, holy crap. Seriously, if you can‘t stop thinking about chopping it off, just fucking do it. This technique works extremely well. I haven‘t been this happy with my hair in a loooong time. Thank you so much!
Just used this tutorial last night. Never have I cut my own hair to this extent but your video made it super simple and I absolutely love the results!!!!! My hair was fried from bleaching and now it feels healthy and looks cute. Thanks for this simple but on point instructional vlog!
I cut my hair before the social distancing to save money. I bought clips on amazon for $6 the help you cut your hair straight, and then use a clippers. My hair turned out really good with the help of this video!
Thank you Sharee! I cut off 6 inches today. First time I have ever cut my hair. Followed your video step by step. Been growing out my hair for 8 years. Desperately needed a change. Truly feel like a new woman with this cut. It's cute, sexy and professional. I too have wavy hair and can wear it successfully straight and with my curls. Thank you times a million. so much love for you!
thank you for making it look so uncomplicated. My hair was down to my waist, and in desperate need of a short cut. Well after watching your method, I did it like you showed here. It worked and it came out great! I was so tired of seeing all these other videos putting it in a pony from behind and bringing it forward. Your video is awesome. I thank you from the bottom of my heart!
I needed a hair cut but with this pandemic I can’t go to the salon ... this was so easy I was nervous about doing it myself but i figure by the time we can back out of our houses my hair will be grown back out anyway ... I was able to do this with with no issues ... thank you!!!
Oh my GOD... Thank u so much for uploading this video. Actually the truth is i'm so impressed by this video because i was searching a video like this and finally today i saw this.... Thank u again ma'am
Omg you helped me sooo much I had dead hair and I have been waiting for my mom to take me to the hair salon but she has to work so you are awesome and I just cut my hair and I feel soooooo good
Today I cut off about 7 inches of my hair and it looks so good! It came out better than when I go to a hair dresser, because it doesn't look choppy and I was scared it was going to come out that way because of my thick hair. If you want to cut your hair follow the instructions step by step. After I followed the steps I couldn't get rid of the tip on the bottom so thankfully my husband helped me and it looks great! Make sure you have someone to help you blend the pointy tips, I tried and I wasn't able to do it myself.
Thanks this worked very well for my long straight hair. I may continue to do this even before I go to a salon since that way, I can determine how much gets cut off.
So i think your hair ended up looking pretty good in the end, but there are better ways to cut your hair that COULD be a little more difficult but still possible if you have a couple mirrors. I just finished my first semester in Cosmetology at trade school and i learned that the best way to cut hair is to do the back then sides(if you are doing a normal horizontal cut). So youd part ypur hair from right behind your ears to the top of your head and that will be your sides. Then the rest of the hair is the back, so put up the side parts and cut the back to your desired length. Then take the sides down and do the same. The reason thats probably the best way to do it is because when u direct all of the hair forward you naturally get a weird reverse diagonal cut(a diagonal cut is short to long, so a reverse is long to short) so some of the hair mostly in the back is angled weird and longer than in the front. I'm not good at explaining with typing so if it didnt make sense im sorry 😂 but you would probably get the best results by sectioning and cutting your hair like i just explained.
I did it without hesitation during quarantine 1 and I didn't watch any tutorial. It turned out really professional looking, I was shook lol! But this time I'll do it following your steps, I believe it will even look better! Thank you for sharing :)
My hair was nearly to my waist line and was falling out like crazy, therefore it was pretty obvious that it was thinning. I'm not too picky with my hair and didn't want to go to a salon so I tried this method on a whim and it worked! My left side was a little off because of how my hair was parted, but I fixed it and really like how it turned out. I left the back semi-v shaped and the length of it is now to my armpit. Thank you for your tips and tricks! Much appreciated ❤
thank you so much for this tutorial!♡ I chopped off like 20cm of my hair and I'm honestly so happy right now. it's weird because it shouldn't have been that big of a deal, but cutting it off (myself) was one of the scariest things in my life. now I feel like a winner :DD
I’ve always been one to be terrified of cutting my own hair. I finally decided to do it because why not? This video helped me cut my hair and it turned out amazing!!! Everyone says it looks like a professional did it!
Hey! I've just cutted my hair after watching your video. And it turned up beautiful. Thank you soo much for your directions. Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 ❤️
I've used this tutorial twice now and it came out pretty good both times! I think it helps that I have fine/sparse hair so it's easier to cut without getting super jagged ends, plus I have wavy/curly hair so it's pretty forgiving. Still, way easier and less stressful than the "unicorn" method!
Thank you!!! The part where you said this hair cut gives you volume sold me. Cut my hair plenty at home but this way has been far the best. My results are so awesome. I have the thinnest hair. Cut it a bit shorter than yours. Still looks amazing. Thanks so much!
@@spookyjuice5856 trust me, you don't. It is not worth the work and expenses, seeing as mine still looks like a frizzy bird's nest everytime I leave my house.
This is so awesome!! My hair came out amazing. I've been cutting my own hair for years using the pony tail under the chin technique, but this came out so much better. This is my go to.
Just did this and looks amazing. My hairdresser always talks me out of going "too short". So she always does what's safe. Well no more and it saves me money. Score. Thanks so much. Please show us how you get those waves. Thanks
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I did it tonight and am 10/10 satisfied and just sooo happy! Hair feels so healthy, was super easy, and came out so good!
Not broke, not having a mental breakdown, not impulsive... I just have trust issues! 😂🤣 if anybody is going to mess my hair up, I’d rather it be me 🤷🏼♀️
Carolina Martinez when she did the hair ties, you put more depending on how long your hair is. Your hair ties should be at least 2 inches from eachother. NEVER GO STRAIGHT IN. Any hair stylist will tell you that.
Gh0st B00tah yeah so I just went in. It turned out pretty good. I hadn’t realized just how long my hair was. I also gave myself some bangs and the look really good now. I cut it that night then cut it again about a week later bc it wasn’t as short as I wanted.
Thank you so much for your video, the tips you give are very clear! I cut my hair yesterday and it worked out so so well! I'm really happy with the result! Keep doing what you do! Have a wonderful day!
So I was having a mental breakdown and I went onto RUclips and wanted to find videos of cutting your own hair... i stumbled across your video and I did it. I cut my hair and honestly I feel so much lighter mentally and physically so thank you for your video xx
I've been wanting to cut my hair for a while and I've just been browsing for videos on it....thank God I finally found one that looks like a real, helpful tutorial! You're so gorgeous and this came out awesome. Can't wait to try it! 😍
I have to wet mine down because I have wiry grays in my hair. It's the easiest way for me to control it. This method looks much easier than others I've seen. I'm still debating. I've never cut my own hair before so I'm extensively watching these to make sure I'm well informed. Your hair looks really nice.
This video helped me finally get the courage to cut my hair, and it turned out great! I did it the exact way you did it and I only needed to trim up the ends a bit and it feels great and my dead ends are gone!
My Mrs has long thick hair and has asked me to cut it short for her. I’ve never cut women’s hair before but I have done a tonne of fades on the fellas. I’m here for tips and this helps a lot. I’ll give it a go tonight and see how we go. Wish me luck 😁
I just tried this with my hair!! It seriously turned out exactly how I wanted it to. I did the exact same steps that are shown in the video & it turned out amazing!! Thanks so much for your help!! 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you so much ! Easy, well done and the result is amazing ! Did it twice in a row to make sure I wasn't clumsy ! Now I like it so much, so glad to have done it and I save your video for later ! Thanks !!!!!
This actually helped me out a lot thanks ! I was honestly a bit scared to do so , but it was long over due and my hair had no shape. I had spilt ends galore and was feed up. So I grabbed the scissors and found your video. My hair turned out pretty good and actually pretty even. Thanks again !!
I cut 8” off my long blond locks! It actually looks good ! My hair is very thick so I had to go through layers and even it up and the back is still a bit off, lol, but since my hair is wavy it all blends . It feels very light and I love it . I was so scared to do this myself but I am glad I did ! Thanks you’re beautiful!
Sharee Anonuevo no problem 🙂 less chance for the scissors to go askew lol seen some disasters with people doing it in one single ponytail behind their head where it’s harder to see what you’re doing. With the two pig tails it’s not as hard but still 😛
How many are here because of self-isolation or social distancing?
Same. And I did it.
Wow. This is crazy.
@@aartig.5143 How did that turn out?
@@sanjanarao5812 lol very well. Cut it off till shoulder length. Looked cute. Felt weirdly productive.

Right now? Since it's late & my hair's all wet after my shower?
After watching her cutting her hair? I decided to cut my hair tomorrow while I'm watching this video. I'm going to try cutting my length of my hair, for the first time I'm cutting over 10-12 inches off the length! That is a huge number for me! LoL.
Good luck to all of you who are cutting your own hair today, tonight or whenever you decide to cut it off! Lots of Brave souls in here! 💞
Here's a tip, "Don't cut your hair while drinking booze, or when you're mad, or when you're having abad hair day!
Been there done that!
No joke! It'll cost you more in the long run!!🤔 🤗
Have a good one.
Just chopped my own hair!! Playing your video while doing it made me less nervous 😄💕💕💕

Same :)
Holy shit, my hair has gotten soo long and I was literally going insane because I wanted to just chop it all off. I just did this following your tutorial and I swear, I‘ve never been so happy! It looks so good, and I feel so much better. This has been such a relief, holy crap. Seriously, if you can‘t stop thinking about chopping it off, just fucking do it. This technique works extremely well. I haven‘t been this happy with my hair in a loooong time. Thank you so much!
Just used this tutorial last night. Never have I cut my own hair to this extent but your video made it super simple and I absolutely love the results!!!!! My hair was fried from bleaching and now it feels healthy and looks cute. Thanks for this simple but on point instructional vlog!
I cut my hair before the social distancing to save money. I bought clips on amazon for $6 the help you cut your hair straight, and then use a clippers. My hair turned out really good with the help of this video!
Thank you Sharee! I cut off 6 inches today. First time I have ever cut my hair. Followed your video step by step. Been growing out my hair for 8 years. Desperately needed a change. Truly feel like a new woman with this cut. It's cute, sexy and professional. I too have wavy hair and can wear it successfully straight and with my curls.
Thank you times a million. so much love for you!
😁
I just chopped off 5 inches using your tutorial and I literally love it! Thanks, Girlllll! 👊🏽❤️
I did this today. haha I messed up the back part. but meh. it'll grow out.
Pauline Vedua that’s what I always say. It’s just hair!
Same I did it but I don’t feel like trimming it because I feel like it’s going to be to short so I’m just going let it grow out
no its called go to a professional!
@@victoriathompson6588 not everyone can afford it
@@pennyjolly that is true,but they will need one when it goes awfully wrong
Being broke in 2024 brought me here.
thank you for making it look so uncomplicated. My hair was down to my waist, and in desperate need of a short cut. Well after watching your method, I did it like you showed here. It worked and it came out great! I was so tired of seeing all these other videos putting it in a pony from behind and bringing it forward.
Your video is awesome. I thank you from the bottom of my heart!
I needed a hair cut but with this pandemic I can’t go to the salon ... this was so easy I was nervous about doing it myself but i figure by the time we can back out of our houses my hair will be grown back out anyway ... I was able to do this with with no issues ... thank you!!!
not doing this because of a mental breakdown, im doing this because of the quarantine
i swear it be getting boring as fuck in here 😬
wow, one month in quarantine really got me fucked up, I'm now stuck with a really bad hair cut and bangs 😭
i be looking like lord farquaad and elda from the incredibles 😭
Oh my GOD... Thank u so much for uploading this video. Actually the truth is i'm so impressed by this video because i was searching a video like this and finally today i saw this.... Thank u again ma'am
Awe ur welcome
Omg you helped me sooo much I had dead hair and I have been waiting for my mom to take me to the hair salon but she has to work so you are awesome and I just cut my hair and I feel soooooo good
Today I cut off about 7 inches of my hair and it looks so good! It came out better than when I go to a hair dresser, because it doesn't look choppy and I was scared it was going to come out that way because of my thick hair. If you want to cut your hair follow the instructions step by step. After I followed the steps I couldn't get rid of the tip on the bottom so thankfully my husband helped me and it looks great! Make sure you have someone to help you blend the pointy tips, I tried and I wasn't able to do it myself.
Thanks this worked very well for my long straight hair. I may continue to do this even before I go to a salon since that way, I can determine how much gets cut off.
So i think your hair ended up looking pretty good in the end, but there are better ways to cut your hair that COULD be a little more difficult but still possible if you have a couple mirrors. I just finished my first semester in Cosmetology at trade school and i learned that the best way to cut hair is to do the back then sides(if you are doing a normal horizontal cut). So youd part ypur hair from right behind your ears to the top of your head and that will be your sides. Then the rest of the hair is the back, so put up the side parts and cut the back to your desired length. Then take the sides down and do the same. The reason thats probably the best way to do it is because when u direct all of the hair forward you naturally get a weird reverse diagonal cut(a diagonal cut is short to long, so a reverse is long to short) so some of the hair mostly in the back is angled weird and longer than in the front. I'm not good at explaining with typing so if it didnt make sense im sorry 😂 but you would probably get the best results by sectioning and cutting your hair like i just explained.
I cut my hair at 2AM, this was a great tutorial! 🙌🏻
I JUST cut my hair. Thank you for this video!
I did it without hesitation during quarantine 1 and I didn't watch any tutorial. It turned out really professional looking, I was shook lol! But this time I'll do it following your steps, I believe it will even look better! Thank you for sharing :)
My hair was nearly to my waist line and was falling out like crazy, therefore it was pretty obvious that it was thinning. I'm not too picky with my hair and didn't want to go to a salon so I tried this method on a whim and it worked! My left side was a little off because of how my hair was parted, but I fixed it and really like how it turned out. I left the back semi-v shaped and the length of it is now to my armpit. Thank you for your tips and tricks! Much appreciated ❤
I'm here because I simply can not justify paying someone close to $100 to cut my hair...
thank you so much for this tutorial!♡
I chopped off like 20cm of my hair and I'm honestly so happy right now. it's weird because it shouldn't have been that big of a deal, but cutting it off (myself) was one of the scariest things in my life. now I feel like a winner :DD
“It’s very [straight] (voiceover)”😂😂
I was wondering if anyone was going to notice... I had to change one word due to RUclips policies.. and I didn’t want to redo my video lol
wow youtube wouldnt let you say "blunt"??? i noticed that too in a few spots
That's wild, Why won't they let you say blunt?
Anna Fritzen weedo lmao
lmao...noticed after seeing you comment😂
I’ve always been one to be terrified of cutting my own hair. I finally decided to do it because why not? This video helped me cut my hair and it turned out amazing!!! Everyone says it looks like a professional did it!
Hey! I've just cutted my hair after watching your video. And it turned up beautiful. Thank you soo much for your directions. Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 ❤️
can you do a video on how you styled it to get the waves? love your style!
yes i want to see, too!
Yessss I want to see this too!
Yessssss
I just did it, & it has worked so amazingly for me. Even I didn't do the diagonal cut and my hairs look awesome ❤❤
Thanks for sharing these tips ❤
I've used this tutorial twice now and it came out pretty good both times! I think it helps that I have fine/sparse hair so it's easier to cut without getting super jagged ends, plus I have wavy/curly hair so it's pretty forgiving. Still, way easier and less stressful than the "unicorn" method!
Thank you!!! The part where you said this hair cut gives you volume sold me. Cut my hair plenty at home but this way has been far the best. My results are so awesome. I have the thinnest hair. Cut it a bit shorter than yours. Still looks amazing. Thanks so much!
I have curly hair, so ain't no one seeing that it's not gonna be straight
Smol memelord lmao your comment convinced me, no one’s gonna see how crooked it’ll turn out
this is why I want curly hair 🤧
@@spookyjuice5856 trust me, you don't. It is not worth the work and expenses, seeing as mine still looks like a frizzy bird's nest everytime I leave my house.
Smol memelord this is literally what i tell people everytime they mention wanting curly hair like mine 🤦🏼♀️
Smol memelord SAME HAHAHHAHAHA
This is so awesome!! My hair came out amazing. I've been cutting my own hair for years using the pony tail under the chin technique, but this came out so much better. This is my go to.
Just did this and looks amazing. My hairdresser always talks me out of going "too short". So she always does what's safe. Well no more and it saves me money. Score. Thanks so much. Please show us how you get those waves. Thanks
Did this today !!! So pleased with the result and it feels AMAZING having short hair again ❤
the more i’m watching this, the more i realize that i’m not experienced enough for this
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I did it tonight and am 10/10 satisfied and just sooo happy! Hair feels so healthy, was super easy, and came out so good!
Not broke, not having a mental breakdown, not impulsive...
I just have trust issues! 😂🤣 if anybody is going to mess my hair up, I’d rather it be me 🤷🏼♀️
I have way to much hair for this and too little patience. I’m just gonna go in. The adrenaline from this breakdown ain’t gonna last forever.
Carolina Martinez when she did the hair ties, you put more depending on how long your hair is. Your hair ties should be at least 2 inches from eachother. NEVER GO STRAIGHT IN. Any hair stylist will tell you that.
Gh0st B00tah yeah so I just went in. It turned out pretty good. I hadn’t realized just how long my hair was. I also gave myself some bangs and the look really good now. I cut it that night then cut it again about a week later bc it wasn’t as short as I wanted.
Thank you so much for your video, the tips you give are very clear! I cut my hair yesterday and it worked out so so well! I'm really happy with the result! Keep doing what you do!
Have a wonderful day!
So I was having a mental breakdown and I went onto RUclips and wanted to find videos of cutting your own hair... i stumbled across your video and I did it. I cut my hair and honestly I feel so much lighter mentally and physically so thank you for your video xx
It’s 1am: “ight ima cut off my hair”
Its 330 am and im doing the same
It’s 9:29pm and same... though I don’t know why I felt the need to comment that considering it’s not crazy late... xD
Jasmine Viveros lol omg it’s 12:41am here. It has to do something with the time lmao
Me last night LOL & I made a video of me cutting it.
11:59pm lol I'm so tempted but I'mma try n' be smart and sleep on it
I've been wanting to cut my hair for a while and I've just been browsing for videos on it....thank God I finally found one that looks like a real, helpful tutorial! You're so gorgeous and this came out awesome. Can't wait to try it! 😍
Bc of the corona virus I can’t go to the hair salon for 3 weeks so this really helped also I’m very bored
that’s why i’m here!
Quarantine day 8: cutting my own hair 😂😂
Did it work well?
heyy_armyy honestly yeah :) it turns out a little layered but it looks fine
Thank you for a great tutorial! I just chopped of about 9 inches of dead ends! It's not perfect, but I love it so much!
I have to wet mine down because I have wiry grays in my hair. It's the easiest way for me to control it. This method looks much easier than others I've seen. I'm still debating. I've never cut my own hair before so I'm extensively watching these to make sure I'm well informed. Your hair looks really nice.
I just did this today on my hair and I’m soo happy that I followed your tutorial!! My hair looks bomb! 🔥
Yay! Glad it worked
This video helped me finally get the courage to cut my hair, and it turned out great! I did it the exact way you did it and I only needed to trim up the ends a bit and it feels great and my dead ends are gone!
Thank u for showing the back
Finally someone who shows the back
My Mrs has long thick hair and has asked me to cut it short for her. I’ve never cut women’s hair before but I have done a tonne of fades on the fellas.
I’m here for tips and this helps a lot.
I’ll give it a go tonight and see how we go.
Wish me luck 😁
I just tried this with my hair!! It seriously turned out exactly how I wanted it to. I did the exact same steps that are shown in the video & it turned out amazing!! Thanks so much for your help!! 👏🏻👏🏻
You are welcome ☺️
Thank you so much ! Easy, well done and the result is amazing ! Did it twice in a row to make sure I wasn't clumsy ! Now I like it so much, so glad to have done it and I save your video for later ! Thanks !!!!!
This actually helped me out a lot thanks ! I was honestly a bit scared to do so , but it was long over due and my hair had no shape. I had spilt ends galore and was feed up. So I grabbed the scissors and found your video. My hair turned out pretty good and actually pretty even. Thanks again !!
I just used this method tonight paired with another method i already use and so happy with the results :) thank you for posting!
So late but what kind of si scissors did you use
What’s the other method?
Thank you! I’ve not been bothered to have a cut since before lockdown, I think it’s time for the chop! 😅
I cut 8” off my long blond locks! It actually looks good ! My hair is very thick so I had to go through layers and even it up and the back is still a bit off, lol, but since my hair is wavy it all blends . It feels very light and I love it . I was so scared to do this myself but I am glad I did ! Thanks you’re beautiful!
If you find you ends to be very thick..the point cutting it in layers
Good technique but ALWAYS cut BELOW the hair tie, not above it
thanks for the tip!
Sharee Anonuevo no problem 🙂 less chance for the scissors to go askew lol seen some disasters with people doing it in one single ponytail behind their head where it’s harder to see what you’re doing. With the two pig tails it’s not as hard but still 😛
