My name is Lucy, I'm a Dutchwoman here to offer an alternative approach to beauty.
On this channel I do mostly hair tutorials where I show you how to braid, pin and style your own hair. I recreate hairstyles from movies, tv shows or history and I regularly come up with my own, which I love to share with you!
I really enjoy diving into history to find out how women went about their beauty and dressing rituals in days past. Vintage and history-themed videos are my little passion project.
You'll find a bit of lifestyle content here as well, ranging from cozy chats over a cup of tea (my beloved Tea Time videos) to personal vlogs and home & interior videos.
Enjoy browsing!
Love,

My sister trimmed my hair, I cut her into a very long bob. This afternoon we're gonna attempt Korean bangs on me, wish us luck!
UPDATE: it turned out amazing! The bangs look like the ones shown in the tutorial
Ooh good luck!!
@@Loepsie thanks!
@Grace Asher good luck to you too!
Let us know how it goes :0 !!
ALL the luck! I hope you like the result
I cut my own hair for the first time in quarantine and I will probably never go back to a salon!
I haven't gone to one in 6 years, i don't regret it at all. I actually trust myself more than a hair stylist
I've always been happier cutting my own hair. I thought I should give hair salons another shot but I just came back from a 50 euro appointment just to get my ends cut (where they didn't even have the common courtesy to blow dry my hair), and I had to take scissors to it to correct quite a few stragglers. Will be giving this method a try!
I really don't understand when we go to a salon and leave the place with WET HAIR. We went with the hair dry, why should we leave with the hair wet?
*cries in German*
50 euro 😳😳
I’ve been cutting my own hair since I was a teen, and I have my dad help me cut the back to help make it straight, lol. It’s easy. I’m always shocked that people always seem so horrified that I cut my own hair. Like, it’s not a big deal. It’s easy, and free. Definitely gonna try your method when I’m trimming off the dead ends. 💙
I have waist length hair, and this is the exact same method I use to cut my hair!!!
It's so easy! 😄
You have no idea how important these videos are right now. Thank you so much for sharing your technique.
Thanks to you, my dear Loepsie, I haven't let anyone cut my hair for over 9 years 💖😘😁 You have convinced me to get bangs, to grow long healthy hair and I have loved going through this hair journey following your tutorials! ☺️💖
Love this! I've been wanting to try something creative with my hair while I've been stuck in my small French village (police are everywhere and the rules so strict- even in the french countryside!) I love your videos; you are the embodiment of class, elegance and kindness.
I'm stuck in a small French village as well!! I feel ya.
@@marylinramos4300 ah what region??
@@helenawoods Oh wow you're in a badly hit area then right?? I'm in Haut de France...Oise. I hope you are doing well too :)
I am in the French countryside as well, in the south of France, Aix-en-Provence !! I don't see much police here, and I'm able to do my weekly errands, but best of luck to you !! :-)
@@marylinramos4300 Ahh ! We're all here together, hahaha !!
Thank you for sharing this I did this and it worked perfectly! Your such a sweet dear soul ! I always love your videos
Hi Lucy! I have cut my hair 3-4 times, but I'd like to learn more, so this video came at the perfect time!
thanks for the video! i cut my hair for the first time this quarantine and it's a little messy but i don't mind, i'll be using this method for trims in the future!
Wow - I was literally planning on cutting my hair later today. Awesome timing. Thank you!
I love cutting my hair myself when it needs it. I use either the unicorn method or my hair bought to the front like you did and just cut the tips. I have cruly/wavy ethnic 22.7 inch growing hair. I cut blunt cut because it makes my hair look fuller and thicker. Love your video 😍
I do things differently but this is useful! I'll try this method next time I need to go to trim town. Thanks for the video Loepsie!
I first followed you for these tutorials. Been cutting my own for 7 years now!
You have Beautiful hair. I always look forward to your videos. 🌸
I love this simple girl 💕
I really like watching your hair update.
I love your fairytale ends! I tried cutting my hair for the first time in a long time, and I did two rubber bands but next time I'll bring my ends together to get that swooped shape at the bottom cuz my ends turned out super blunt...
I love your content!
Looks great on you Lucy. I wonder though if that soft U shape can make thin hair appear even thinner.
I don't know what got into me. I've been cutting my own hair happily for three years now using great saved RUclips videos including yours, to guide me each time. So what possessed me suddenly during lockdown to attempt my cut without rechecking my hair videos?! I thought I remembered how to cut my long hair and layer my side swept bangs. And now I have a mullet.......!
I'm going to try this today. My hair is almost to the bottom of my back but my ends need a good trim. If I mess up, I'll be wearing my hair in a bun until they open hair salons again!
UPDATE: I did it and it doesn't look to bad. Instead of a v- shape it is wavy because my hair is super wavy. It's not noticable because I usually have my hair back in a pony. Should I straighten my hair and try again?
Your bangs look super cute 😍😍
I do Faye's method (there are tutorials for it), it gives a U-shaped line, which I like best,
So I'm giving myself a new V-shape haircut tomorrow 😃 it's super simple
At first I thought when I saw your thumbnail you cut your hair shorter, below your shoulders, you look cute I thought. Anyways love your hair cut tip!
I’m gonna try that! 🌸
Do you have any tips for trimming layers? I have a few shorter layers, so atm I am just sectioning and them trimming, but maybe there’s a easier way.
Even my hair is thin though it is wavy and I like cutting it straight across at then the ends..still it grows out looking as if I hav layers cut..bcoz of the uneven growth of new hair..
Thank you for the tips! My hair is thin too and I've been trimming my hair myself for a while. Just doesn't make sense to spend all that money for a professional cut when it all ends up looking the same :/
How do you take care of your hair and help it grow? My hair has always been thin and I wish I could have more hair growth to give it some volume
Awww i love your glasses. That's pretty enough. 💙💙
Yay!! Thank you!! I have been trying to find a tutorial I felt comfortable following and this seems super easy. I do have a question... I have a side part so should I put it in a full middle part before I cut?
If you always wear a side part, I'd cut it in a side part!
Loepsie Thank you so much for your reply!!! I always wear it in a side part and I got my hair cut in a blunt cut in October and it’s been growing out.,. Still looking like that gross blunt bob on me! I was gonna part it midways until you replied!! I just took the scissors to my hair and HOLY CRAP!! My boyfriend even said I looked great. I’ve been watching you for at least a decade and I really appreciate your videos. You STILL save me till this day!! Thank you 🙏🏻 bless you and all that you do
Ahh thank you so much!! I'm glad the trim was succesfull, and thank you for the continuous support! 😄💕
Yay just what I needed!!! ^^" brilliant 🧡🌈🌈🌈🙌🏻👏🏻
Have you tried using the flaxseed gel on your hair? I heard it's quite effective on hair growth.
Thanks❣️
I also have fine hair and have been cutting my hair the same way for years :)
May I ask where you got that gorgeous blush top you're wearing? 😍
Primark, but I've had it for years :)
Where are you from? You have a lovely accent so I can't help but wonder. I cut my hair twice during quarantine but the next time I will cut it I will try this method. Btw I LOVE YOUR bangs 😍
I like that V-shape too (And even though I have thicker hair your method works quite well). I've heard from a certain Brad Mondo that it's not the trend these days...but who cares about trends anyways, right?
He has no idea what he's talking about, lol. Long hair in a v or u shape is a classic look
That's almost exactly how I cut my hair, except I put a hair band around the end, and cut right above the band. My hair is waist length, so exactness is not a problem for me either. I also cut my own bangs.
I've been doing the same for 2 or 3 years! I've saved so much money lol
I had a really cute but really tragic pair of earmuffs I was using last winter...they were hinged, and the hinges ripped off a bunch of my hair at above ear length, when the rest of my hair is lower back length. ☹ I will be waiting for thos pieces to grow back for a very long time. 🙄
How about a skin care routine??
That's how I cut mine 👍👍👍👍👍 I like the slight U or V shape
There’s about three inches at the bottom that looks really thin then the rest above is nice and thick. If you trimmed off the bottom three inches it would be nice and thick looking!❤️
If you have side part, should you part your hair in your usual place before doing this?
Thank you SO much for this!!
my hairdresser cut my hair shorter before the quarantine. I ask for a long bob and she gave me a short bob. I even showed pictures of me with the cut I wanted. I didn't say anything but I hated my hair for the last two months. :$ Now I kinda like it but I'm growing it out. It's beginning to look like what I originally wanted (even the length of my bang ! D:)
So you are going to keep the old "diesushibitch" method, keeping the length and waiting for the top thickness to reach the ends by micro trimmings? 😀. I relate because my hair resembles a lot yours and im growing it in a slow bit safe process with constant micro trims 🧡🧡🧡
What a throwback, haha! But yes, that's the plan :) I've been cutting my hair shorter and shorter in an attempt at making it "look thicker" which always works for about a month and then I'm just left with short hair that's just as thin. So now I've accepted the thin, wispy ends and will just wait until it gets better (and wear extensions when it really bothers me, haha). Good luck with your growing!
@@Loepsie ha ha mine is the same. Fresh trimmed hair look last about a month then it goes back to piece y state even with gentle hair caring 😂. Thats just how fine hair is i guess. Im starting to fully embracing it and im kinda tired of thick ish short hair look, i need length. 😬Thanks a lot and truly hope yours get bettter even though i have always thought your hair is so beautiful no matter what 🥰🥰🥰.!!!
What do you think is making all that new hair come back like that? Were you ill a couple of years ago?
No idea :( I feel like it just happens every few years and I haven't been able to identify anything that may have caused it. I've been taking biotin supplements for a while now which have made the hair grow faster, but I only started doing that when the new hair was at about cheekbone length so that's not the reason why it came back.
Loepsie
How many mg of Biotin?
I do basically the same thing.
If the V shape on the back gets too harsh, ill just make a tinny ponytail in the very end of the hair and trim ever so slightly just to make it more subtle.
BTW, I've been cutting my own hair since 2005. I went to a salon to cut my hair about three times since then
Does anyone know how this method turns out when you have a side part?
Well i'll cut my hair because the best days in arabic year is now we have 3 days when the moon is full the hair grow and be strong very much
Soy fan de tus videos, sólo que no tengo idea de lo que hablas... Por favor si pudieras poner subtítulos al español... Muchas gracias!! 😉
Hi have you ever heard of water only hair washing..shampoo tends to cause hair breakage and make it thin..would you ever try it :)
I tried it a few years ago but I couldn't push through, haha. The transitional phase is very hard and I don't really see how I'd get through it with so much emphasis on my hair in videos all the time 🙈
Loepsie yes that’s very true, I’m just two weeks in and the first week it was very greasy but somehow this week isn’t near as bad but I use the boar bristle brush and that’s amazing lol😀..reason why I mentioned it to you is because my hair was shedding every time I washed it with shampoo and even when I put my fingers through it and now when I wash it only a tiny bit of loss( the normal we lose each day)I have read other peoples experiences and they said they don’t like the heavy weighted feel but my hair was so light before and only shoulder length so I quite enjoy feeling it move at least lol.. it isn’t for everyone and it’s early days yet for me so I ain’t preaching 😉just yet lol x
omg I have the same glasses as you
I have exactly the same type of hair, but blonde!😃
That looks so much easier than how how I do it xD
What about your bangs?
Do you know the reason why your hair was getting thinner? I've had the same problem for a few years now, but still have no explanation on why this suddenly happend. Doctors appointments couldn't clarify either, so I'm still wondering where I went wrong.
I don't :( There are a few potential options I've considered, but I can't confirm any of them with any certainty, and it might just as well have "simply happened". I've experienced this before, and there wasn't any clear cause back then either.
@@Loepsie Ok, I see. So we have a similiar struggle going on here... whatever the reason, I hope your hair regrows quickly and thanks for taking the time to reply :)
It's a common problem for everyone, but in this quarantine period i have been oiling my hair more frequently and I found my hair got kind if thicker and longer than before.
Can we get an updated makeup routine?
Not much has changed since the last one, but I might do a new one at some point :)
Loepsie it’s just I am trying to recreate your evie from the mummy look exactly and I want to know exactly which products you used. Maybe you can do another evie look from a different scene in the mummy?
Is there a way to make baby hairs grow longer faster? I feel like mine grows in ultra slow motion...
I've been taking biotin supplements for a while and I feel like that has helped make them grow faster... Might be worth a shot?
thanks for the recommendation ♥️
Loepsie
Hi Lucy.
How many mg of Biotin?
20 micrograms atm
OMG I just realised I looked at my vit D bottle hahaha, it's 1000 micrograms for the biotin, sorry!
do Ingrid Pitt in the vampire lovers 1970
Well guess what I'm going to do today! :)
Good luck!!
@@Loepsie thank you! :)
How do you pronounce your channel name?
do Linda Blair in exorcist 2 the heretic 1977
I can't even part my hair straight, fml lol
Do u really have thick hair ? When u showed braids hairstyle it was so thick . How ?
* cries in short, thick hair*
Boo hoo.
@@kimonaNo1 Yes, precisely!
How do I get to your private videos?
Are you still going to do a hairstyle???
Do sissy spacek in Carrie 1976. And Rachel Lang in Carrie 2 the rage 1999?
This is quite easy when your hair is that length. No so easy when it just last shoulder length
i have decided to not cut my hair for awhile, but once it is grown out, i will attempt your method.
I just want to leave a comment. Hi.
Hi! 😁
Unless I was a trained hairdresser 💇🏽♀️ I would endorse or recommend cutting your own hair or anyone else’s without training🙀
You would? That’s ok then 😆
One time at the salon my hair went in nice long and smooth, and came out looking like a dog chewed on it.
ur hair was healthier
That’s not a *cut* that’s trimming the ends off 😆
The past few vids you've posted I've been verryy tempted to comment that you desperately needed a trim! TBH I think you should take a bit more off, the ends look very dry and thin and I think your hair will look and feel a LOT nicer if you take off a couple of inches. Look at how excited Jenna Marbles was in her recent trim video!
I agree 👌
sIs GoT oUr BaCcS dUrInG qUaRaNtInE.
My dense hair could never😭
But do you always cut off barely a centimeter? That felt like less than that.. you could easily cut off 2-4, or even 5-7 cm and have MUCH healthier looking/feeling hair. Split ends travel up the hair strands much longer than what you cut off, and (if I'm assuming you cut off this little every time) that's why the ends of your hair looks so wispy. Cutting off that little is doing literally nothing to help with split ends. And if you really want a trim, you need to make sure ALL of the strands are getting cut. Recommending cutting off that little honestly feels like a joke, but know that I still LIKE and RESPECT Loepsie ❤️ If that makes you happy, then go for it!
(for Americans; 1 cm = 0,4 inches, 2-4 cm = 0,8-1,6 inches, 5-7 cm = 2-2,8 inches)
Noooo, really? I am very sorry, but your ends are super dry and look not good about 5 or 7 cm for sure.
I'm aware, thank you ;)
She is talking about this. Just watch and listen.
Too much faffing about without doing anything 👎
I dont Like that so many people cut their hair themselves. Its okay for once every while but it doesnt look as good a a real layered Cut from a hairdresser. And i have fine and thin hair myself Like you. I go to a hairdresser every 6 months and inbeetween cut my ends a little when i notice spliss
I am not sure what Loepsie thinks, but for many people going to the hairdresser is usually nothing but an annoying ordeal, I rarely leave a hairdresser satisfied but always poorer. If I just want to take care of my tips or bangs I prefer to just do it myself, not waste money and not go through the anguish of getting something I did not ask for.
I've never, ever left the hairdresser with a cut I wanted and liked. When I cut my own hair, I'm able to cut it exactly how I want it, and there isn't someone there to secretly cut off 10 cm more than I asked for 😜 For me personally it isn't worth the money. We all have different priorities, though!
I think it depends on the cut you want. For simple trim, at home cuts are perfectly fine. Of course, if you have long hair and want to get a bob or a super short cut, maybe seeing a specialist would be better. But that's entirely up to you. I gave up hairdressers because they very often are ridiculously expensive! And I don't like that cuts for men cost half the price of cuts for women (even when I simply need to trim). But if you prefer seeing a specialist, go with it!
develish cat I prefer a blunt cut because my hair is a bit thin, and that’s easy to do at home. If you want a fancier cut, I completely get going to the hairdresser, but that’s not what I’m looking for.
develish cat not to be rude but I have to wonder; why are you even concerned with what other people do with their own hair? The only hair you need to worry about is the one on your own head. Don’t really know how people cutting their hair at home or getting it professionally done should impact you at all.
