This is my first time cutting and silk pressing my hair I just stayed up all night trying your method😅 it came out good every one in my neighborhood said it’s so beautiful and that I did a good job. I cut off a little too much but it needed to come off. Well all thanks to you I really really appreciate you for posting this video.❤
OMG Karen my hair is Exactly like yours down to the genetic (but manageable) hair loss. My temple are is like your as well! I lay my baby hairs with Lily of the Desert aloe gel; that's how fine my hair is! Good to see I can NEVER expect a super-dense hairline LOL! My crown and the back upper part, is nice and dense! My entire perimeter is somewhere in the 3c/4a range and low low/slight medium density. I am currently diy rubber african threading until about the New Year. I have seen some TREMENDOUS results with my density.
Great advice.......I do similar. I been natural 23 yrs.... Also at 58, I spray my scalp with water mixed with rosemary aromatherapy oil to stop menopause hair loss and keep growth.... DON'T use rosemary oil if you have high blood pressure it can escalate it. You can use lavender aromatherapy oil instead as it helps baldness/hair growth. It also helps with hot flashes and insomnia. All the best in your hair journey ladies. 😊
I have followed a couple of people who trim their hair at home. Yours covered the top and back more thoroughly. Much appreciated. The last time I let a stylist trim my hair it was uneven and I thought to myself I have done it better myself in the past. I will definitely use your techniques. Thanks so much. New subie!!!
Thank you for this tutorial. Getting my hair trimmed was the only reason to go to the hair stylist. And it cost way to much just for a trim. Now I won't need to go to a stylist anymore .
YESSS THATS WHAT I BE NEEDING TOO. And if you a new client they want you to purchase the new client package which is $100+ and I don’t need all that, or if you haven’t been in awhile you got to get the new client packet. I just be needing my ends trimmed and that’s it
Also, if you really focus on your fingers when pulling upward/outward, you can literally feel the point where your hair thins indicating where you need to trim. Great video!
Sis, ur out here doing the Lord’s work! Thank you so much. I’m exhausted with these new hair folks who call themselves professionals but completely pigeonholed in this blunt-end bob styles. They really don’t k ow how to trim. I’m not a professional but I know what a good trim is suppose to be and THIS IS IT! Can’t wait to do my own with ur guidance. A million Thank Yous to you.
God Bless You!! I have decided to go back to doing my own hair because I have had one too many beauticians messing up my hair. This was the only thing I couldn't do own my own.You have helped me tremendously! Thank you!
Karen, I’m just discovering your channel. Your content on hair care and hair health is fantastic. Your videos are well presented and easy to follow and evidence based. I will definitely use your tutorial to trim my ends. Great content!
Thank you for showing that! Its such a drag to pay $70 in essence just to have someone trim your ends. I can wash and blow dry my own hair but I pay to have it done just so I can get it trimmed.
Hi there Karen, I watched the video the other day and said that i would follow your video and do it. I just did. I LOVE IT! THANK YOU SO MUCH. Now, i'm going to rinse my hair and twist it up. I can't say thank you enough! You're the best! :-)
I watched a different video that showed a quicker wayto do this, but your video was a little longer and very thorough. And I feel if I followed your advice, I believe that would be better for my ends and healthier. So thank you for sharing your tips, and I'm definitely subscribing to your channel. Oh and I love love your humor, you had me cracking up, especially when your scissors tried running away lol lol lol lol 😂😅😂😅
OMG if your hair texture and length isn’t like mine even the thinning!AND the trimming procedure.. shows me that I’m on the right track. Glad I saw this tutorial!
Whenever I want to try anything on my hair I run to your videos and look for what I’m trying to do. Ty for your information keep ‘em coming. Getting ready to cut my ends now following this video, I know it’s going to be a lot but I know they gotta go to have healthy hair. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for taking the time to share this video. Your instructions were safe, convenient, and easy to follow. I am going to trim my hair today. I really appreciate this. 😊
Your hair looks amazing! I’m due for a trim within the next few week and this video will help me tremendously. You are a professional and I appreciate the good, sound advice that you share with your viewers. Thank you so much!
@@KarenofCurlHouse I would like to color my hair black (naturally, it is an ugly shade of dry dark brown). I'd like black hair with the bottom colored copper. I wonder if I should color it all black first and then color the bottom copper on another day or can I do it all on the same day?
Thank you so much for this. You were so detailed and thorough and gave great instruction. I would think you were a teacher in your profession. I tried watching another video prior to yours. She has over 1 million subscribers and her video was more like a commercial than actually teaching you how to trim your hair. And she did not address people with layered hair with different lengths which I feel is most people. Appreciate you very much.
Hey Star! Thank you so much! I am a licensed instructor of cosmetology, and my God given gift is teaching so I think that helps! Thank you so much for the encouragement. I am nowhere near 1 million subscribers, but happy and appreciative of each and every woman I am able to reach!
This was very helpful, and timely, especially since my hair is in desperate need of a trim. I just discovered your channel yesterday and I have subscribed. I like your personality, professionalism and style.
I heard what you said about the pattern baldness but you really needed to trim more to reduce the thinness on the ends of your hair on the top. It would make it look much more dense and healthier.
Thank you for sharing! I really like your method and you demonstrated it very thorough. I have a trim coming up soon and I’m going to try this. My top section is like you described yours, it’s thinner and seems to be growing slower. I just turned it into a curly bang. This is the best trimming video I’ve seen.
@@KarenofCurlHouse Ive watched ur hair journey over the years & after reading some of the comments & viewing your past videos, I am subscribing to your channel. I appreciate how you Teach with clarity & excellence, demonstrating the "how to" without the "Hype" of how to care for our natural hair....Priceless!!🙏
Love this video. I would like to see how you trim on shorter hair. My hair is about an inch or two. The process I’m sure is a little different I guess. Thank u!
Hi Rere! Yes. Shorter hair is much harder to do on your own because it can't be stretched as much to see it from the front. You would need to take a mirror. I will put this video on my list of videos to do. But .. I gotta think about this one! Yall definitely like to give me a good challenge! LOL!
Talk about being right on time! Yours was a wonderful tutorial on a very detailed hair trim. I will definitely be using your technique when I trim my hair in December! Like you, I too have Female Pattern Alopecia. I also have a double whammy, with medication induced hair fall. So, I am definitely interested how you have managed the issue. Thanks much!
Thank you so much for this video!! I would love to see a video on how to properly blow dry your hair at home to prep for your trim also 😊 I also would love to know the differences of how the hair would be sectioned off if you have bangs. I have bangs and Grace framing pieces in the front. One last thing, do you have a video on humectants and natural hair? I live in a very high humid state, and I’m wondering if I’m doing my hair justice by not using humectants. I try not to use products with them High on the list because I also have high porosity hair. So my logic is, since my cuticle is already lifted, I don’t need to utilize humectants that’ll lift my hair further in high humidity and draw too much moisture in. But that’s just my logic, lol. I would love to know what your thoughts are on that.
Excellent instructional video. All your videos are educational and I have learned so much about my own natural hair and how to better manage it. Thanks!
I truly appreciate the depth that you’ve explained how to cut hair at home. Every detail is mentioned. Thank you! ❤️🫶🏽❤️ The explanation is paired with the “whys” and the “why nots”, so helpful! 😊❤😊

And thanks again!!!
Ur hair is so beautiful 🥰! I'm happy to report that I have been doing my own trims! And doing them correctly according 2 this video. I can also tell when I've done a wonderful job bcuz the brush or comb glides through my hair versus fighting the very tool that is supposed to assist if u will. My hair always seemed 2 look like it grew, like right after I trim it. I am loving on my natural hair these days! I've found a way to stretch my hair giving it a blowout look. It's so easy 2 brush my hair everyday & 2 c no fairy knots or shedding. Well it just blows me away in mighty way!
Hi Nichelle! Thanks for responding! Awesome awesome awesome that you are trimming on your own! I was so hoping this video wasn't too technical! Now do share -- tell me about your 'no heat' stretching?
@@KarenofCurlHouse Absolutely! I'm actually air drying right now actually. I normally part my hair into 4 parts and twist. Bcuz I am high porosity, I tend to add my diy oil on wet ends 2 seal the deal. If I need 2 run out I simply place a silk scarf. Depending on what I have on my hair then I might wear a plastic cap then silk scarf to cover. Once my hair is dry and full of moisture I can brush or comb and style.
Oh my! What a blessing this video teaching is. I never comment but appreciate a good thing. Im actually exited to trim my hair now. 44 years old with mixed race hair. Its troubling at times. But you have already saved the day. Yeahhhhhhh! Your beautiful also and witty😊
Oh my goodness!!! Karen, you are too much! 🎉 In a great way! I just asked you about this subject, and upon checking back into the platform, your video popped up! Okie dokie! I’m going to eat my Callaloo and watch! Yessss!
You doing a great job with managing your hair loss condition. I was watching some of your videos from a year or two ago and your hair was so short and now it is so long and pretty!
Thank you so much Silver Fox! I keep saying I am going to do a video of my journey to hair restoration -- its'c coming! It certainly has been a journey!
@@KarenofCurlHouse Please do! as I believe I have that condition too. I have an appt with a dermatologist coming up in Aug as my hair has thinned out a lot in my crown area as well as a patch area on the side that itches a lot. (I have been using the Nioxin #4 shampoo/scalp treatment system and it's helping a lot and I rarely see hair loss in my drain anymore and my hair always grows long) I started having this thinning issue after going through menopause in my 50's but it got much worse after I was put on blood pressure medication (metoprolol) three years ago. I'm 69 yrs young :) and I've always had a lot of hair (but baby fine textured hair) up until the last few years.(it's very upsetting to loose ANY hair unnaturally). I'm new to your channel and I really love how you teach hair care and also your very warm personality. :) and I must say your hair looks great! and healthy....I wish I could trim my own hair too. I had a stylist razor cut my hair my last trim.. without me knowing it..and that's a huge no no for curly hair as it thins out your ends and causes the ends to frizz and dry out even more :( Thank you so much for sharing and caring! I will be watching! Belinda
I've been trimming my own hair since many years ago. I don't straighten or blow dry so don't mind if it's not even lol Unfortunately I was not lucky with hairdressers NEVER so I just take care of my own hair and yes I've cut more than enough sometimes but never as disastrous as when I paid to get it done by someone else. My experiences were bad made me feel that they really didn't care about what I wanted neither about my hair just getting the job done feeling entitled. Sad but true. I do stretch my hair sometimes so I would utilize your tips thank you so much Karen you are a blessing❤🎉
You are so welcome! I can do curly trims as well, but that's a little more difficult to teach as it is very difficult to see the split ends with curly hair. But I"m so sorry about your poor experiences. I always listened to my clients when it came to trims. Even if the client wasn't ready to remove all of the split ends, I would do it in stages. I"ve always believe that you meet people where they are. But if you have been trimming your hair for years now -- I"m sure you do it like a pro! 💇🏽♀️
YOUR VIDEO HELPED. ME OUT. IM SAYING AN INCH TO CUT OFF IM TEACHING MYSELF 2 STRAND TWIST AND MY TWIST HOURS LATER LOOK LIKE FUZZ COMING OUT .IM THINKING TO CUT TOTALLY OFF AND START A NEW WITHOUT USING RUBBER ANDS. MY GRIP IS NOT TIGHT .ANY SUGGESTIONS
I am so scared to do this 😢but I have no other choice. I will be using your tips and following your video every step of the way. Pray for me 🙌🏽. I’ll be doing mine this week.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, SO SO MUCH for this detailed and easy to follow tutorial!!! I have been looking for this for so long- this info is very needed! I will be referring back to this repeatedly. I recently found your channel and subscribed. I appreciate you sharing your expertise. Future video ideas: I would like to see a video on how to cut mens/short hair too. I'd like to be able to trim my husband and son's hair. Also, how to upkeep dreadlocks style and properly care for scalp and hair in dreadlocks. I'd also like your opinion on the pros and cons/outcome differences of cutting hair while wet vs dry curly vs dry blown out. Some salons use different techniques. Which technique is appropriate for which type of hair/curl pattern?
Thank You So Much. We have lots of beauty salons in scissor happy and cut to much. I've been trimming my hair the wrong way as I twisted then I just trimmed the end of it. My hair is fine and curly and I'm scared to get it blow drying hot curl so I will be following your direction.
Thanknyou for also pointing out that som hairs grow slower then others, as I have has my hair chopped off one to many times because they did not listen, and wanted to even it out....and I take care of my hair.
I used to tell my clients "You know your hair better than me as you are with your hair 24/7", so I think it's so important to LISTEN to my client. Hair doesn't have to be evened out when trimming. Keep right on taking care of your hair!
@@KarenofCurlHouse Thank you. I just wish I had someone in MD who is able to help take care of natutal hair properly. And not just want to silk press , dread/loc it, or add extensions
I am really learning some good stuff from you! Wish i knew your channel when i bc'd (3/31/20). My last trim was in Nov 2022. I watched a few different videos tocpretty much trim EXACTLY as tou had. You put all the jewls and nuggets in one video!
Hello Sandra! I typically recommend every 3-4 months, about once per season. Here's another video I created that may help you as well. -->. ruclips.net/video/qz_WsekLV04/видео.html

Depending on what I have on my hair then I might wear a plastic cap then silk scarf to cover. Once my hair is dry and full of moisture I can brush or comb and style.
Thank you! Absolutely helpful
You're welcome! 🙌🏾💜
Oh my! What a blessing this video teaching is. I never comment but appreciate a good thing. Im actually exited to trim my hair now. 44 years old with mixed race hair. Its troubling at times. But you have already saved the day. Yeahhhhhhh! Your beautiful also and witty😊

Very helpful video. Thanks
🙌🏾💜
Thank you so much. This is so helpful!
You're so welcome!😉
Thanks for sharing this awesome video I'm definitely going to try this one 😀😄
Have fun!
Thank you,this hair trimming tip is well appreciated.👍👍👌🥰💞
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you for an awesome video. You remind me of my mother who was a beautician. Take care.
Wow, thank you! That is truly a compliment. 🤗
You doing a great job with managing your hair loss condition. I was watching some of your videos from a year or two ago and your hair was so short and now it is so long and pretty!
Thank you so much Silver Fox! I keep saying I am going to do a video of my journey to hair restoration -- its'c coming! It certainly has been a journey!
@@KarenofCurlHouse oh I would love to see that video! It's so encouraging to see people transform before your eyes!
@@KarenofCurlHouse Please do! as I believe I have that condition too. I have an appt with a dermatologist coming up in Aug as my hair has thinned out a lot in my crown area as well as a patch area on the side that itches a lot. (I have been using the Nioxin #4 shampoo/scalp treatment system and it's helping a lot and I rarely see hair loss in my drain anymore and my hair always grows long) I started having this thinning issue after going through menopause in my 50's but it got much worse after I was put on blood pressure medication (metoprolol) three years ago. I'm 69 yrs young :) and I've always had a lot of hair (but baby fine textured hair) up until the last few years.(it's very upsetting to loose ANY hair unnaturally). I'm new to your channel and I really love how you teach hair care and also your very warm personality. :) and I must say your hair looks great! and healthy....I wish I could trim my own hair too. I had a stylist razor cut my hair my last trim.. without me knowing it..and that's a huge no no for curly hair as it thins out your ends and causes the ends to frizz and dry out even more :( Thank you so much for sharing and caring! I will be watching!

I've been trimming my own hair since many years ago. I don't straighten or blow dry so don't mind if it's not even lol
Unfortunately
I was not lucky with hairdressers NEVER so I just take care of my own hair and yes I've cut more than enough sometimes but never as disastrous as when I paid to get it done by someone else.
My experiences were bad made me feel that they really didn't care about what I wanted neither about my hair just getting the job done feeling entitled. Sad but true.
I do stretch my hair sometimes so I would utilize your tips thank you so much Karen you are a blessing❤🎉
You are so welcome! I can do curly trims as well, but that's a little more difficult to teach as it is very difficult to see the split ends with curly hair. But I"m so sorry about your poor experiences. I always listened to my clients when it came to trims. Even if the client wasn't ready to remove all of the split ends, I would do it in stages. I"ve always believe that you meet people where they are. But if you have been trimming your hair for years now -- I"m sure you do it like a pro! 💇🏽♀️
@@KarenofCurlHouse thank you Karen you are so kind! 💌✨👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you ma. I learnt a lot
You’re very welcome! 🥰
What product do you use before blow drying your hair
Hi Phyllis! I spray the Curl House Leave In Conditioner, followed by Design Essential Agave Leave Thermal Protector Serum. It does the trick!
Thank you for the information.
You are very welcome 🤗
You have thought me something regarding the reason for hair Loss on the crown in females
Thank you
You are very welcome!!!
Thank you so much. ❤
Do you use the same process if your hair is not straight?
YOUR VIDEO HELPED. ME OUT. IM SAYING AN INCH TO CUT OFF IM TEACHING MYSELF 2 STRAND TWIST AND MY TWIST HOURS LATER LOOK LIKE FUZZ COMING OUT .IM THINKING TO CUT TOTALLY OFF AND START A NEW WITHOUT USING RUBBER ANDS. MY GRIP IS NOT TIGHT .ANY SUGGESTIONS
Ms. Karen your hair is amazingly Gorgeous 😍! Thank you for the tips! I love been natural! I'm now a subscriber of your channel! ❤
Thanks for subbing! Welcome to the Curl House Community 💜. I appreciate the compliment!
Loved the video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
I am so scared to do this 😢but I have no other choice. I will be using your tips and following your video every step of the way. Pray for me 🙌🏽. I’ll be doing mine this week.
The best thing you can do is TAKE YOUR TIME! Don’t rush it! and remember - less is more! You got this 💪🏾
@@KarenofCurlHouse thank you so much 😊. You are right- less is more.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, SO SO MUCH for this detailed and easy to follow tutorial!!! I have been looking for this for so long- this info is very needed! I will be referring back to this repeatedly. I recently found your channel and subscribed. I appreciate you sharing your expertise. Future video ideas: I would like to see a video on how to cut mens/short hair too. I'd like to be able to trim my husband and son's hair. Also, how to upkeep dreadlocks style and properly care for scalp and hair in dreadlocks. I'd also like your opinion on the pros and cons/outcome differences of cutting hair while wet vs dry curly vs dry blown out. Some salons use different techniques. Which technique is appropriate for which type of hair/curl pattern?
Subbed when you trimmed the hairline cuz not even professional stylists do that these days!
Hahahaha! Thank you much! I am a licensed cosmetologist and I thought we “all” did the hairline 🤷🏽♀️ Taught me something 😂
Awesome❤Content!!✂️
Yay! Fabulous!
Thank You So Much. We have lots of beauty salons in scissor happy and cut to much. I've been trimming my hair the wrong way as I twisted then I just trimmed the end of it. My hair is fine and curly and I'm scared to get it blow drying hot curl so I will be following your direction.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate this trim video 🙏🏽🙌🏽😃😇❤️
You are so welcome! 💜🙌🏾
I really enjoy your video’s helps me a lot. I wear my hair natural and i just flat iron it and i need a good trim
Awesome. Thank you!
You're welcome!
Absolutely awesome video i just did my trim while watching u snd i have to say your beautiful ❤
Thanknyou for also pointing out that som hairs grow slower then others, as I have has my hair chopped off one to many times because they did not listen, and wanted to even it out....and I take care of my hair.
I used to tell my clients "You know your hair better than me as you are with your hair 24/7", so I think it's so important to LISTEN to my client. Hair doesn't have to be evened out when trimming. Keep right on taking care of your hair!
@@KarenofCurlHouse Thank you. I just wish I had someone in MD who is able to help take care of natutal hair properly. And not just want to silk press , dread/loc it, or add extensions
@@Nyotakikora1 What part it Maryland? Try Ayana at the Outbar salon. I’m not sure where you are in Maryland though.
@@KarenofCurlHouse Close per say to Baltimore. But I shall look her up! Thank you ma'am
I am really learning some good stuff from you! Wish i knew your channel when i bc'd (3/31/20). My last trim was in Nov 2022. I watched a few different videos tocpretty much trim EXACTLY as tou had. You put all the jewls and nuggets in one video!
Hahaha! You are very welcome! No need to keep all of knowledge to myself lol 😂
How often should we trim our hair? Thanks ❤
Hello Sandra! I typically recommend every 3-4 months, about once per season. Here's another video I created that may help you as well. -->. ruclips.net/video/qz_WsekLV04/видео.html
