Licensed cosmetologist here. Every persons hair is not thick whether it’s natural or chemically treated. Some hair is just naturally thin. The diameter of the hair also decreases as it reaches the ends of the hair strands which results in thinning ends. Thin ends don’t always equal split ends.
Thank you for clarifying. My hair has always been thin and it's really grown recently. I was seeing through it in pictures so I thought I had to cut it by half😬. I'll go to a hairdresser to get it checked and trimmed if I have split ends.
That being said... this hair needed that trim. The client had very uneven length. Seems some parts of her hair were experiencing breakage leaving other areas longer and looking sparce. Also the longer hair also looks very dry and damage / compromised. It needed to be trimmed
Right. And, some times... Its not split, thinning or damage hair. It could be, hair is growing at different times. Which, causes it to look like one or the Three.
As a stylist…Just to let ppl know. Just because you see see through ends does not mean they are necessarily split. Just means thinning. But here yes, those are splits but I’m just saying when you are getting your hair trimmed. Unless the stylist will let you see there’s actual splits (as in strands that look like that have two heads or look like forks in the road) don’t just let them cut it. I can’t tell you how many close up videos I see when a stylist will cut hair unnecessarily just because it’s thin on the ends. Thin does not mean splits. Could be a diet change or hormonal changes that made your hair start growing thicker or even your hair routine!
I’m no stylist, but I definitely recognized where the trim line was needed before she started cutting. I remember getting a trim, and immediately noticed the difference in movement with my hair! Trims are so vital!
Her hair stylist actually is so misleading. Her ends aren't split, some people want to blunt cut the tapered ends to make their hair look thicker which is fine but that stylist just cut several inches of healthy hair.
Split ends are usually when the ends of each hair strand are split into two or more.. it looks like some of her hair is longer than other portions of her hair that are thicker.. when hair looks like this, it doesn’t always equate to ‘split ends’
Exactly. My hair grows uneven. I kept cutting to make it even thinking it was unhealthy. But after multiple big chops I realized that's just how some people's hair grows. Doesn't mean unhealthy hair or split ends
We don’t know what her reaction was 😂 its not cool to cut ppl hair without letting them know exactly how much. Whether it needs to be cut or not not the stylist’s decision
@@goddesstif she doesn't wear it straight often then it won't make a difference. And likely she has different curl patterns throughout her hair so a blunt cut will not look nor lay right in its natural state. From this clip it's impossible to know how the cut turned out. But it looks like a blunt cut when she probably just needed a trim or a dusting
@@Trisha-jq4fd I went through some of her other videos to see if maybe we're not seeing this in it's full context, but it appears she cuts all her clients this way. Which may be the reason why they may not be retaining length or they might be experiencing slow growth rates compared to others. And what is the purpose of doing it this way unless the clients all wear their hair straight exclusively which I don't believe this specific client did initially
How do all these stylists do zero degree cuts saying it's thinning/damaged when that's not case at all. The hair growing from the bottom of your head will hit your back sooner than the hair growing from the top, making the hair appear like it's thin wherever those stands don't overlap. I can understand doing that cut for aesthetic purposes but those stylists telling clients it's damaged hair is messed up.
The split ends leads to hair breaking off where the split stops causing the strand of hair to be thinner. If all the stands are split and break off then you end up with thinning on the ends. The hair may be long but it is damaged, if not cut at or above the split then the strand keeps separating and the breakage is higher on the strand eventually breaking near the scalp. The best and healthiest decision is to cut
I think what makes people with long hair(myself) included, scared to get a trim, some hairstylists are scissors happy, they just start chopping and chopping 😢! Stylist, please, let us talk about this 😮!
Facts! Did my own for years thought I'd give a stylist another try. She thought my SLIGHTLY wavy hair was curly. She cut all these layers in my hair on the third visit! My hair is basically straight unless I purposely curl it. I couldn't see what she was doing and had warned her first visit that I didn't want layers around and up all my hair. 😢😢😢😢 Growing it out now putting lots of conditioner to blend the stupid sticking out Layers. Refuse to cut it up to my chin. I am NEVER going back to a stylist again. I'll cut my own thanks (and she was not cheap)
That's exactly why I just do trim on myself every two weeks.hair still grows with split ends, but trimming regularly always helps. The hairstylists I've met are either liars or just can't approximate length 🤷🏻♀️
She needed that. She found someone to help her start to take care of her hair and maintain its health. You stopped her hair from splitting up. Mission accomplished 💯❤️
It seems a lot of ppl, stylists included, don’t know the difference between split ends and thin ends. Stylists are there to do just that; style your hair. Now a trichologist….thats where you will understand what your hair needs ❤
@@Sunshine27234 wrong. Thinning ends could also be an indicator of post partum, diseases like Cov¡d or change in hormones . However, once things go back to normal, the new hair will grow out thicker which obviously makes the ends look really thin and bad. But that doesn't necessarily mean the ends are split
How do you know the client wasn't told? This is a voice-over video & stylists do consultations before providing services. I'm sure the client seen what her hair looked like from the back & knew how much was coming off.
She said she kept quiet after the client said her hair had no splits and until she actually assessed the state of the hair for herself. You made such a bad faith interpretation with no proof...
Some stylist do chop away without communication. My last trim was this week. I wanted 5 inches off. I told her I wanted the front slightly shorter. She took out the measuring stick. When it came to my front she said ok this is 5, but 6 would take it slightly shorter, is this going too be too short for you?. She showed me what she was going to cut. I said I don't need to hang onto those strings, you can cut those off. 😂 She chuckled and clipped it off. Some people need to hold onto the thin strings because they feel it gives them length. But it doesn't look good anyway.
Thin ends and split ends are not the same thing. Y’all need to stop glorifying chopping off hair unnecessarily. Trims dont make hair grow more, it grows from the root not the tip.
Trims do make hair grow more actually because if yoru ends are split they will go up yhe hair causing more ahir to fall out and you won't even know your hqirs growing bc the min it grows it falls back out.
@@Havis_PrincessAgreed. Longest hair I had in my life came from trimming my hair. If women always have new growth but their hair never gets longer it’s because they are loosing it from the ends. Know when to trim before it goes up the shaft and you need a big cut.
This lady needed it though. I bet her hair stayed tangled at the ends because the density is different, causing more split ends and doing tiny trims or dusting. That's why it LOOKS like she doesn't need "a lot" cut. When your hair can get to this length, it looks so much better if you can't see through it.
@@kayceeyoung8480She kept quiet as the woman explained herself coming into the salon. I’m pretty sure she had to explain things to the client after washing and blow drying. Cause to cut that much hair would’ve caused a negative reaction without being prepared…especially in the black community! Because many of us have trauma (or low self-esteem) around our hair and damn near ALL of us place it on a pedestal of importance to various degrees and for different reasons.
Here's my controversial take as a woman growing her hair for nearly a decade 1) Those are just fairytale ends. Natural breakage and variation in length as each hair follicle has its own growth and fall cycle 2) Split ends serve a purpose, now the "healthy hair" will just take the brunt of the damage and become the same 3) If you want your hair longer, grow it longer regardless of if it fairytales (which some people find beautiful) or splits, and then trim to maintain once you reach your goal length, to gradually increase fullness Tired of the fake war on "damaged hair" >_< But salons have to make money..
Cutting hair to where only the strong and healthy is left (can be emotionally traumatic because of the attachment many have to the same hair they damage on a regular basis and don't show much love for when it comes to HEALTH vs Styles 🤷🏽♀️) I truly understand the feeling of only caring about length and thinking growth=healthy. Well I have committed every "sin" against my hair so, there is no judgment to anyone who is doing the same. But I learned how to be grateful that my scalp and hair follicles are enough to even GROW my hair. So I love how it looks and feels cut, but healthy and having PATIENCE that it will all grow back in time (probably faster) instead of leaving longer damaged hair there for length even if it looks fried and broken just to "say" I have long hair. This realization has improved my self esteem and relationship with my hair SO much. It's a daily commitment, but looks and feels dramatically better than SplitsVille🙆🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️💇🏽♀️💆🏽♀️😊🤗. Great educational video. So many can learn from this!❤
@@kathleenmoore9534 I don't believe any of that. I have a DIRECT personal relationship with my GOD (who I call SOURCE, BTW) and don't need Jesus or any other Human Being to build that relationship. Christianity and ALL organized religion is man's law. I follow the laws of the Universe that are unbreakable. Try it sometime. You'd be amazed how free you feel and how much happier your life can be when you let go of false premises. 😊
Thinning ends are caused by breakage, and breakage eventually leads to splitting. Stylists know this more than anyone else, and both issues need to be resolved with a trim to ensure healthy and thick growth. Many of you are in denial and delusional about someone's actually profession over your discomfort. Which is why many stylists do not do the hair of delusional clients. You're not going to be asking me to play captain fix a lot when you are actively contributing to the issues you're thinking deep conditioners and oils will fix.
I'm a Rapunzel girl, so, I've NEVER trimmed My hair before for DECADES, but I had hair like hers, wispy at the end, trimmed it off, looked great and healthier!
Why are split ends always deemed to be the problem? Hair shedding is natural, but not uniform. Why is there never the consideration that shorter hairs are those that she'd more recently that the longer ones?
Baby my hair lady just got me together last month and baby when i tell you wash day was glorious!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾 😭 i could not believe that i didn't have to fight with my hair 😂😂 and it took like an hour off my process. Moral of the story: if you have a good hair lady, just do what she says is necessary!! 😂❤
Any cosmetology book or teacher will show you that split ends are literally strands that are open at the ends. You can see them when you look closely. These are thinning/uneven. They are not the same as split ends. They may also be split but you have to look at each up close to accurately determine that. 🔍
@user-uu1kn2np6c split ends are forked at the end (or other parts), they literally split. Like an untied rope. Split ends can cause breakage but theoretically you could just have uneven strands that broke off due to rough care
@user-uu1kn2np6c split ends are exactly what it says. The single hair strand is split at the end and can run the length of the hair. That look like uneven hair. The ends may or may not be split.
THANK YOU!! You can not see where to cut until it is fully straightened. Hair is SUPPOSED to be uneven to an extent. We do not grow hair as a blunt cut. Try this with someone with thick hair, and their hair will look a mess when the humidity hits.
Why would you cut straight across. Should have cut in sections. This woman’s hair is never going to grow more than 2 inches if you keep cutting like that. Stylist love to cut.
Let’s go back to the old school stylists that took their time to last each section and trim it securing by section. This straight across cut will never sit well with me!
That is the 1st step. Its called cleaning up the perimeter then they go back and cut the inside at an angle then do the front.do you know anything about hair ?
Yes stylist love to cut your hair. They always cut 2 inches more than you ask them to. They want to show you a fresh new cut but you go home pissed and never return to that stylist. If I say trim, I mean trim and not Lop. One of those mysteries of life.
I Don’t mean to be rude but why does thin versus thick ends automatically mean split. It is often not the case. We should start looking at groups who have long hair such as Indians. There is no excessive trimming but use of oil. It is possible to have less hair at the ends without it being split. Her hair doesn’t look particularly nice like that, but did all of it have to be cut off? Was that all truly split? One of the reasons many black people do not have long hair is due to the obsession with trims. A trim is not needed every 1-2 months. You can trim even once a year or less if you are caring for your hair and keeping it moisturized
If she hadn't been caring for her hair for awhile, it was probably damaged. I'm sure that she wouldn't have cut that much off unless it was necessary. It's easier to care for heathier hair.
Because when your hair is this bad you can literally see where the hair broke off. You can tell she naturally has thick hair based on the roots and mid shafts. If she naturally had thin hair it would look like that from roots to ends
@@tyheviadavis2807 From this video, we didn't even get a close up. Your ends are usually thinner than the rest of your hair. So we can't say anything is obvious. We are just so use to seeing the see through test. Plus these blunt cuts can also hide damage. It just makes your hair appear stronger.
I went to the same hairdresser for years before she retired. When I started with her, she said “I believe in healthy hair. If we work together, and you come on a regular basis your hair will be healthy and it will grow.” She stressed limiting heat, dying the hair at home, getting regular trims. I have fine hair that is various textures. I had a relaxer and discovered other hair dressers had been over processing my hair. Anyway, she put me on a schedule for trims, relaxers, and deep conditioning. She also told me I couldn’t get any color change that required bleach because my hair would severely break. Finally, she told me my hair represented her and she didn’t want a client who wouldn’t work with her and get and keep healthy hair. Anyway, I came to her with a pixie cut and ended up with hair almost to my bra strap. And I had a relaxer the entire time! Yes, she trimmed my hair every time she relaxed it. Also, when I came to her my hair was over processed and cut short to cover up the damage. She was very transparent and I miss her. I went through several stylists before I got a good one. She guided my hair from relaxed to natural and through a bout of alopecia that was caused by stress. It’s extremely important to have a trusting relationship with your hair dresser. You both have to agree on a plan for your hair. If the person you’re going to doesn’t do a consultation and suggest a plan. Get out of the chair. You’re in the wrong place.
I think it's out of wanting to educate that you sometimes can't see what they see after prepping the hair. She leaves as much length as is worth it. This person will have received quality service, imo.
@loredanadincu4300 Calm the heck down. Just because you are on the internet doesn't mean you can talk to people any way that you like. You're really rude.
Just because you can see through it doesn't mean its split. Some people have fine hair. You actually have to look at the hair. You probably cut more off than what is needed.
@@thedivinefeminine1821 your strands can be thin while your destiny overall (how many strands you have) can be above average making it appear thicker. When comparing your strands you compare to a single piece of thread, if its not as thick as the strand its thin, if its thicker you have thick strands of hair. I have thin strands but amazing destiny which makes people think I have regular thick hair. When its straight you can see the strand thickness and I have to create volume for it not to look flat with a silk press. My sister has an amazing destiny and thick strands and can get away with just a quick bump when straightening.
Just because the hair is thin does not mean it is split. Of course the ends of the longest sections of hair will be thinner unless they are deliberately cut to match the lengths of the hair higher on the head. This split ends misinformation is crazy. Cutting hair does not make it "healthier".
Cutting hair cuts the split and u hekathy ends so it doesn't kill the the hair at top ao or does helo and thin ends I'd uakly due to split ends. When my hair was healthy and longer I had natural layers. The bottom was never super thin except for when kt was split.
I dont care if you have 3 hairs on your head.. I respect my clients Specifically if its the first time... 26 years being Licensed in California and Washington State. I have my Instructor license as well.. That was not what she ASKED for at ALL!!!! You did what YOU wanted not what your CLIENT asked for..
Lord come do her hair then and tell her when her hair starts breaking at the top oh I didn’t know it was spilt ends. She is going to be happy those see through ends were cut!
That’s exactly what she asked for darling! Put your listening ears on next time. The client said “I need someone TO TAKE CARE OF MY HAIR….” As a 26 year licensed stylist Rachelle you should know that hair care includes a trim or cut IF necessary. Alright now, have a great day today! And if you can’t don’t come trying to mess up anyone else’s.
Sooooooo were you there????? You took this short clip & ASSUMED she did this on her own without permission… You asked NO questions.. just TOLD her what she did.. PLEASE get a life!!!
What’s crazy is sometimes the hair is just uneven when straight because the curls are different lengths to shape the fro. Her ends probably weren’t all that split, just uneven
Everyone talking about that, but my hair is see through from the end to the root.. I have think and medium density hair.. I always thought it was split end and I always cut my hair from time to time but it grows the same way… so girls sometimes it’s just our hair
Yup. I'm glad my cuz ex gf who was a great stylist taught me that. She never wanted to cut my hair when I asked her to. She said I also have hair that doesn't grow evenly, so depending on how you style you don't need to trim often. Even if this young lady did have some splitends this video did not prove any of that because this is not how you look for split ends
I was a stylist for over 25years and also have thin hair. I taught people how to recognize split ends. You have to look at the end of the hair strand, not transparency.
Does cutting it make it look better or thicker? I just think that thin hair always looks like the hai is just not covering properly. Therefore, I would cut and curl for a more body appearance. I guess. My hair is thick as heck, so I don't know your journey.
@@wandathompson2319 depends on the cut, how thin or fine the hair is and the style you wear it in. I've always had fine but thick hair. Now that my hair thinning due to illness and hereditary. I don't try to make it even. Most people won't look and know it's 30% thinner than it used to be because I previously had such dense coverage. Even my non growing patches along the hairline is undetectable to most. I feel for people who always had less coverage.
See through does not always mean split ends. I literally have no split ends. However, when I take my hair out of its natural state and blow dry it. It looks just like hers. The longer my hair gets the curls loosen towards the bottom. No breakage. No split ends. Cutting layers looks great for this type of hair if you want to wear it straight.
This was my story for years but for me it was annoying. I was constantly doing tiny trims. My hair WAS this length 2 weeks ago. However after years of hanging on to thin ends, I started doing 2inches every 3months only for my hair to grow back 4-6in. What I realized is those tiny trims and 2inch cut each time, killed my progress. I finally got it cut above th thin area because I was tired of the tangles and losing progress. I'm not worried, my hair grows like a weed. But to each her own.
Those are split/damaged ends. If it doesn’t get cut, it’s going to keep rising up the hair shaft. There should never be that drastic of a density. If your ends are that sparse you have breakage that needs to be trimmed off.
@@Mel-so2rw it could also be a drastic amount of hair shedding. This is why you see women of other races with tapered ends, yet the hair continues to get longer. Hair is usually never completely dense throughout the length of the hair.
@@Shugar212 Not when Majority of Beauticians are taught by people and schools who dont understand Ethnic Hair Especially in America. In America they do not teach this. 🧚🏽♂️🧿🧚🏽♀️ her hair was not damaged once it was flat ironed youd see no spit ends. Speaking from experience.
@@Shugar212 yea in america black girls only have one option a white curriculum cosmetology school... it doesnt matter either way my comment will help someone retain their length and put down the scissors.
This is not a sign of split ends. It’s a sign that she went through a major change in her hair growth cycle and most it fell out. The bottom layer is the old, old hair that clung on. It’s different in texture, too
Probably to the untrained person claiming to be the best. Thats why you gotta shop around and read reviews and watch videos of their work. I’m not even trained but can see the thinness of all that she cut off.
Once you cut off the split ends, her hair is going to be so much healthier, and flowing. It will grow especially with scalp massages. She’s going to love it ❤
To anyone that maybe a curly natural most of the time, here are some ways i can tell its time for the coils to get a cut: 1. Brush doesnt go through the ends 2. More tangled that usual 3. Weird curl at the ends 4. Looks like its 2 coils at the end 5. Been longer than 4 mos
All that see through hair has gotta go. The splits traveled up. I have my license as a cosmetologist so I respect your hair care tips. I used to do hair now I’m a prison Psych RN. I always love watching your hair content. ❤💎
@lanadelrio-op6xz Nothing. This video was about a woman so they just catered to women. And she right. I didnt know wtf split ends were until i was 18.
Why does everyone only cut straight across now? My stylist would never do me wrong like that....she would guve me feathered layered when she did a huge chop on my ends so i would still have shape to my hair and it wouldn't look like a blunt bob
These new stylists in recent years do cut like that. Maybe I’m old but I remember getting trims in quadrants then they trim the middle. This video was cut short but she could have gone in and did layers later idk
Cause they don’t know what they are doing! This is not how you cut hair, especially for health! She doesn’t show us split ends, just thinning ends, which does not necessarily correlate to split ends! Try the Afrikan hair god! He knows all about healthy hair!
@@1_star_reviews Good Luck with that since the majority of beauticians are either all natural, or wearing pony tails, wigs and braids .. at least this has been my experience with stylist who have an abundance of clients. 😊
They wanna cut people's hair cause I think people usually need a trim cause we ALWAYS wanna keep aa much as we can!! Nobody wants to admit to badly needing a cut cause it's been 2 damn years since the last one and we have heat damage, styling damage and any other damage we can do to our precious locks!!
Every hair stylist have said I have split ends to the root😒 and always have let them cut it. Now my hair has grown to my butt typically takes it about 4 to 5 years to get that length. Now I'm 44 I don't trust hair stylist because now I just think my hair just grows uneven.
In my experience,thin ends are just the long way around split ends, because thin ends make tangels ,tangles lead to brakeage,breakage means ur gonna start seeing alot of dead and split ends.
This was my mom with me. I took down her 5 month cornrows, detangled, washed, dyed, blow dried, flat ironed, and trimmed. She had some split ends, so i told her I was going to trim her hair. Tell me why this woman cried. I barely took an inch (she honestly needed a little more) and she had a fit. Saying she couldnt put her hair in a ponytail anymore and just overall upset at the job I'd done. But to make it worse, she used to be a cosmetologist in the 90s. I was baffled!
If you’re natural your hair is at different lengths because of shrinkage, cutting the bottom of her hair is not “cutting off all the split ends” I learned that from experience. We should start cutting natural hair by sections, not by just he bottom 😅
You don't see that line of demarcation? It's full until a clearly defined point. All that is dead ends. That's why y'all be baldheaded now holding on to any semblance of "length." Then it starts breaking off. Rinse, repeat.
@@renee9959 But all that means is that her hair is fragile and when it gets long - read "old" -- it breaks off. That doesn't necessarily mean she has split ends.
This is a *new* "stylist" thing. I never saw anyone cutting this lazy until a few years back, and I'm almost 40. That is not the way to do it, like at all.
@@arianneess47there'd nothing lazy sbout cutting straught vs layers. Not everyone wnats layers people woll litterlaly request to have their hair all yhe same length so cut straught across
Tip for my thick haired ladies. Straight across blunt cut gives the illusion of thicker hair. Also harder to style. Harder to hold curl etc. have it point cut with long sizzors or long layers feathered whatever
Everyone is educated on what healthy hair looks like. It's the stylist that should teach them and not talk about them. This is the issue people have with going to salons. Everything is a joke.
Stylists like this are not gonna see pearly gates for the way they lie. She doesn't have splits, hair tapers towards the bottom thats natural. If she wanted you to cut her hair to make it look thicker and more blunt then have it at it but you just chopped off healthy hair from that lady.
I, too, suffer from the “I don’t have split ends!” delusion. Knowing damn well the ends of my hair feel like broken straw. This video made me want to go see my stylist 😅
Before I didn’t actually know what split ends looked like so I always kept saying ”my hair is good! No split ends and healthy!” Then when my cousin became a hairdresser she walked up to me and had a talk with me- my hair is not good- she said that I sadly won’t be able to color my hair anymore and she showed me how split ends looked like and I how I will see it on my hair, I got so sad but wow- I needed that reality check from her, my hair was close to actually breaking or falling out if I kept dying it in different colors so instead of coloring it she made a washing appointment instead and put the good stuff in my hair so she could show me what to use and how to use it, I’m so greatful that she did❤️
I have hypothyroidism and every couple of years my hair sheds like 50 % of its volume. Overtime, it grows back and my hair looks like this, it’s not spilt ends- but it doesn’t look good 😩
Those aren't split ends. They're THIN ends😭 its probably okay to cut them off because they're weak and probably are more prone to developing split ends or amy form of breakage in general but they aren't split, or probably arent. Can't make them out just from this
@@KristenS91 I don't think so. Dry ends break off, not split ends. If your split ends are dry, then yes, they'll break. Thin ends can happen for a variety of reasons, not just split ends. I won't say they're damaged, rather, they're weak and prone to damage hence can be cut off. Some of them can also be as a result of damage or damaging practices
@@princess_lookbook Split ends absolutely make your hair frizzy and dry. They knot up, tangle, and break off. There is a reason people say their hair behaves much differently after getting a trim/cut. Once the hair strand is split there is no repairing it. A simple google search will tell you this.
With African and curly hair when you straighten it you will always have see through no matter how healthy the hair because curly hair is cut different then straight if you are jumping between natural and straight hair most likely the see through isn't Split ends its and uneven cut for straight hair
It reeeeally does not matter not one iota. She could have kept growing her hair and if she's happy and content with her hair, she wins out over every woman who's fussing with herself at the hairdressers every month. Let it go. Let it go ❄️ 👉 It doesn't matter one iota. ...Split ends and breakage never bothered me any way. 🙌
She does not have a lot of hair splits, reason being the hair will not be in same size since that is push back you have done. So if you cut it like that you will shorten and cut a big size of back hair. Instead to look for splits divide hair in sections that when you will get a better look. There you will cut not only healthy hair (big amount) and split ends. Which I think she doesn't deserve
Yeah Shatara, it's maybe having split ends but cutting it from back does not justify her hair. There you chopped large amount of healthy back hair. I don't think judging that she has split ends by pushing hair back is justice to her hair. The hair should be divided into small section to determine that. Remember the shape of the head is not a flat surface but it takes spherical or circular shape. So according to pushback you did, it does not justify split ends at all. I can tell from experience
@@naturalshatara9559 from my knowledge the split hair is usually the already broken strands she’s literally cutting good hair to be the length of the “broken off” pieces which still doesn’t make sense bc like this commenter said even if your hair grows evenly all around your head pulling it straight back to do that cut will make it look uneven. Truth is the main stylist you see cut like this is black. Every other race knows to cut in sections and layers , not straight across 2-6 inches giving each of your clients a bob they did not ask for.
Everybody has split ends, even with a fresh haircut. I am weary of stylist because NO ONE hair grows bluntly and evenly, and black hair isn't fully thick near the ends, so whats "see through" isn't alwyas damaged and needs to be cut.
People really be in denial about their hair like they don’t have to look at it everyday, and see that it’s not healthy lol. Let the damaged ends go. Your hair grows more when you get it trimmed! I love getting my ends clipped.
That problem has been going on for a long time! You still needed to cut it higher to give her a fresh start. Vanity or attachment has to go out the window.
As a retired hair care professional, it is no such thing as thinning at the ends without some form of damage such as split ends and knots leading to breakage. People who say they don't have split ends but their hair is see through like this, it's because they HAD split ends /knots and the split or knotted hair already broke off. This causes damage which is why it looks this way. If your hair is thinning (excessive shedding), it will NOT just thin on the ends like this. It will be thin FROM THE SCALP too. As you can see, this client has not addressed her spilt ends for so long that at least 2 inches of hair must be cut. It is practically impossible to see the health if coily hair without it being straight. Do not believe for a minute that damage has not occurred.
It's NOT necessarily split ends: the hairs 6 grow at different rates. I have straight hair with no split ends (I know what they look like), and when my hair grows long, it gets different lengths.
It's sad because sometimes some people feel that just because they have length that they have no problems.... Length doesn't equate healthy hair
Right
EXACTLY. A lot of people be delusional.

What's the point of this video if not showing the end result?
Dang calm
Down lol just go to her page (I’m sure that’s the motive anyway) for part 2?? 😂
Licensed cosmetologist here. Every persons hair is not thick whether it’s natural or chemically treated. Some hair is just naturally thin. The diameter of the hair also decreases as it reaches the ends of the hair strands which results in thinning ends. Thin ends don’t always equal split ends.
Thanks for clarifying because I get the same effect, my hair thins as it gets longer but I don’t see split ends anywhere.
Thank you for clarifying. My hair has always been thin and it's really grown recently. I was seeing through it in pictures so I thought I had to cut it by half😬. I'll go to a hairdresser to get it checked and trimmed if I have split ends.
That being said... this hair needed that trim. The client had very uneven length. Seems some parts of her hair were experiencing breakage leaving other areas longer and looking sparce. Also the longer hair also looks very dry and damage / compromised. It needed to be trimmed
Right. And, some times... Its not split, thinning or damage hair. It could be, hair is growing at different times. Which, causes it to look like one or the Three.
Exactly !
As a stylist…Just to let ppl know. Just because you see see through ends does not mean they are necessarily split. Just means thinning. But here yes, those are splits but I’m just saying when you are getting your hair trimmed. Unless the stylist will let you see there’s actual splits (as in strands that look like that have two heads or look like forks in the road) don’t just let them cut it. I can’t tell you how many close up videos I see when a stylist will cut hair unnecessarily just because it’s thin on the ends. Thin does not mean splits. Could be a diet change or hormonal changes that made your hair start growing thicker or even your hair routine!
Thank you for that gem🎉
I was thinking that too!! So true.
Exactly!! Split ends are visible at the ends of your hair. Thinning or uneven hair are completely separate.
I think your comment is so important bc if you must address the underline issue. And cutting your hair isn’t going to solve your problems
Great info, thank you ❤️
I’m no stylist, but I definitely recognized where the trim line was needed before she started cutting. I remember getting a trim, and immediately noticed the difference in movement with my hair! Trims are so vital!
😮
You can see where her hair is thin and uneven but that doesn’t always equate to split ends.
@MiVidaBellisima yes buy obviously its extremely dead/fried
Yes, I see it too. 😢 Glad that you were tactful and honest. ❤❤
There are people telling women with long natural hair not to trim because they have stronger strands but everyone hair isn't the same.
She never going to go back and say hair stylist be hating 😅
Lmaoo

Her hair stylist actually is so misleading. Her ends aren't split, some people want to blunt cut the tapered ends to make their hair look thicker which is fine but that stylist just cut several inches of healthy hair.
Split ends are usually when the ends of each hair strand are split into two or more.. it looks like some of her hair is longer than other portions of her hair that are thicker.. when hair looks like this, it doesn’t always equate to ‘split ends’
Exactly. My hair grows uneven. I kept cutting to make it even thinking it was unhealthy. But after multiple big chops I realized that's just how some people's hair grows. Doesn't mean unhealthy hair or split ends
even if they arent split ends, it looks bad having uneven hair
You don’t wanna see mine. They be going multi dimensional with mid split attachments and 16 end frays…
Heat damaged hair...
I saw a similar video once and they said if the ends of the hair are see through like this then they need to be cut off
*SHOUT OUT TO HER FOR NOT BEING SO ATTACHED TO HER HAIR THAT SHE LET IT CONTINUE TO BE UNHEALTHY. YOU GO GIRL*
We don’t know what her reaction was 😂 its not cool to cut ppl hair without letting them know exactly how much. Whether it needs to be cut or not not the stylist’s decision

not at all
Nope! Nope! NOPE!
I only allow a 1 inch trim. Hair regrows, sheads, breaks on a continuous cycle. Hair is never truly even for long.
that definitely needed more than an inch though, that doesnt even look good so what's the point of hanging on to it
@@goddesstif she doesn't wear it straight often then it won't make a difference. And likely she has different curl patterns throughout her hair so a blunt cut will not look nor lay right in its natural state. From this clip it's impossible to know how the cut turned out. But it looks like a blunt cut when she probably just needed a trim or a dusting
@@Trisha-jq4fd I went through some of her other videos to see if maybe we're not seeing this in it's full context, but it appears she cuts all her clients this way. Which may be the reason why they may not be retaining length or they might be experiencing slow growth rates compared to others. And what is the purpose of doing it this way unless the clients all wear their hair straight exclusively which I don't believe this specific client did initially
She needed more than an inch. Letting those splits continue to travel up the hair will have all of your natural hairstyles looking wayward .
It's hair, it will grow back.
Split tends are different from uneven/thin ends.. if you want to check split ends u have to look up close to actually see the strands splitting.
Absolutely correct!! Split ends are actually split!!
Thank you!!! This is breakage! I'm so tired of people calling anything split ends.
@@LethalLemonLimethis is definitely breakage
How do all these stylists do zero degree cuts saying it's thinning/damaged when that's not case at all. The hair growing from the bottom of your head will hit your back sooner than the hair growing from the top, making the hair appear like it's thin wherever those stands don't overlap. I can understand doing that cut for aesthetic purposes but those stylists telling clients it's damaged hair is messed up.
@@NanaNaima1I never cut dear and I am fine... your logic is perfectly correct
'See-through-hair' DOES NOT ALWAYS MEAN YOU HAVE SPLIT ENDS. Your hair could be less dense naturally at the back of your head.
Ppl ...PLEASE learn the difference between split ends and thinning
Thin ends is caused by split ends
The split ends leads to hair breaking off where the split stops causing the strand of hair to be thinner. If all the stands are split and break off then you end up with thinning on the ends. The hair may be long but it is damaged, if not cut at or above the split then the strand keeps separating and the breakage is higher on the strand eventually breaking near the scalp. The best and healthiest decision is to cut
No hating her hair needed that
Why couldn't see the final result?
Thank you! I was going to say this isn't "splits" its thin ends
As long as she consented!😊
💯
Yeepp :)):)))
I think what makes people with long hair(myself) included, scared to get a trim, some hairstylists are scissors happy, they just start chopping and chopping 😢! Stylist, please, let us talk about this 😮!
Truth teller!!
Facts! Did my own for years thought I'd give a stylist another try. She thought my SLIGHTLY wavy hair was curly. She cut all these layers in my hair on the third visit! My hair is basically straight unless I purposely curl it. I couldn't see what she was doing and had warned her first visit that I didn't want layers around and up all my hair. 😢😢😢😢 Growing it out now putting lots of conditioner to blend the stupid sticking out Layers. Refuse to cut it up to my chin. I am NEVER going back to a stylist again. I'll cut my own thanks (and she was not cheap)
For years I thought hair stylists were scissor happy on purpose! Some people are wicked!
@@hydrangeas_loverit's usually because the hair is more damaged than you can tell.
That's exactly why I just do trim on myself every two weeks.hair still grows with split ends, but trimming regularly always helps. The hairstylists I've met are either liars or just can't approximate length 🤷🏻♀️
I’m so glad ppl are catching on! See through hair doesn’t mean split ends.
it looks way better once it is cut off though
It’s definitely breakage tho
Why tf would anyone want see through hair?
@Ale-yl4wd because when you've never had hair or healthy hair you believe anything.
@@emotionaloracle8605 I probably have 10 times the amount of hair as you.
She needed that.
She found someone to help her start to take care of her hair and maintain its health. You stopped her hair from splitting up.
Mission accomplished 💯❤️
It seems a lot of ppl, stylists included, don’t know the difference between split ends and thin ends.
Stylists are there to do just that; style your hair. Now a trichologist….thats where you will understand what your hair needs ❤
That sparse area is not always an indication of split ends and breakage, but hair loss/thinning.
Very true.
hair loss starts from the scalp, not from the ends. thin ends mean breakage. you can perfectly see where the hair breaks.
@@Sunshine27234❤
@@Sunshine27234 wrong. Thinning ends could also be an indicator of post partum, diseases like Cov¡d or change in hormones . However, once things go back to normal, the new hair will grow out thicker which obviously makes the ends look really thin and bad. But that doesn't necessarily mean the ends are split
@@Sunshine27234 If some of your hair falls and it grows, some strands will be shorter than the others and look the same as hair that simply broke.
You kept quiet and chopped that much of her hair without telling her. This is why people don't trust going to y'all.
How do you know the client wasn't told? This is a voice-over video & stylists do consultations before providing services. I'm sure the client seen what her hair looked like from the back & knew how much was coming off.
She said she kept quiet after the client said her hair had no splits and until she actually assessed the state of the hair for herself. You made such a bad faith interpretation with no proof...
Facts
💯
Some stylist do chop away without communication. My last trim was this week. I wanted 5 inches off. I told her I wanted the front slightly shorter. She took out the measuring stick. When it came to my front she said ok this is 5, but 6 would take it slightly shorter, is this going too be too short for you?. She showed me what she was going to cut. I said I don't need to hang onto those strings, you can cut those off. 😂 She chuckled and clipped it off. Some people need to hold onto the thin strings because they feel it gives them length. But it doesn't look good anyway.
Thin ends and split ends are not the same thing. Y’all need to stop glorifying chopping off hair unnecessarily. Trims dont make hair grow more, it grows from the root not the tip.
Trims do make hair grow more actually because if yoru ends are split they will go up yhe hair causing more ahir to fall out and you won't even know your hqirs growing bc the min it grows it falls back out.
Dawg this girl needed way more than a trim 😭
@@Havis_PrincessAgreed. Longest hair I had in my life came from trimming my hair. If women always have new growth but their hair never gets longer it’s because they are loosing it from the ends. Know when to trim before it goes up the shaft and you need a big cut.
This lady needed it though. I bet her hair stayed tangled at the ends because the density is different, causing more split ends and doing tiny trims or dusting. That's why it LOOKS like she doesn't need "a lot" cut. When your hair can get to this length, it looks so much better if you can't see through it.
@@shawnawilliams634 Basically nothing you said makes scientific sense.
Thank you for being brave to tell her the truth!!
She said she kept quiet loll
I just cut three inches off. Sigh. You have to take care of those ends. 🤷🏽♀️🙏🏽😌
@@kayceeyoung8480She kept quiet as the woman explained herself coming into the salon.
I’m pretty sure she had to explain things to the client after washing and blow drying. Cause to cut that much hair would’ve caused a negative reaction without being prepared…especially in the black community!
Because many of us have trauma (or low self-esteem) around our hair and damn near ALL of us place it on a pedestal of importance to various degrees and for different reasons.
@katriana_young I'm only teasing I'm sure you're right about that.
@katriana_young wait do we got the same last name? Lol.
Here's my controversial take as a woman growing her hair for nearly a decade
1) Those are just fairytale ends. Natural breakage and variation in length as each hair follicle has its own growth and fall cycle
2) Split ends serve a purpose, now the "healthy hair" will just take the brunt of the damage and become the same
3) If you want your hair longer, grow it longer regardless of if it fairytales (which some people find beautiful) or splits, and then trim to maintain once you reach your goal length, to gradually increase fullness
Tired of the fake war on "damaged hair" >_<
But salons have to make money..
Cutting hair to where only the strong and healthy is left (can be emotionally traumatic because of the attachment many have to the same hair they damage on a regular basis and don't show much love for when it comes to HEALTH vs Styles 🤷🏽♀️) I truly understand the feeling of only caring about length and thinking growth=healthy. Well I have committed every "sin" against my hair so, there is no judgment to anyone who is doing the same. But I learned how to be grateful that my scalp and hair follicles are enough to even GROW my hair. So I love how it looks and feels cut, but healthy and having PATIENCE that it will all grow back in time (probably faster) instead of leaving longer damaged hair there for length even if it looks fried and broken just to "say" I have long hair.
This realization has improved my self esteem and relationship with my hair SO much. It's a daily commitment, but looks and feels dramatically better than SplitsVille🙆🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️💇🏽♀️💆🏽♀️😊🤗.
Great educational video. So many can learn from this!❤
😊Jesus is coming back. Believe He died for your sins and rose again then repent to be saved.

We can't really see up close in this particular video, but please note that thin ends and split ends are not necessarily the same thing.
That part
U stopped the vid too early.. I wanted to see the full cut. 😢
Thinning ends are caused by breakage, and breakage eventually leads to splitting. Stylists know this more than anyone else, and both issues need to be resolved with a trim to ensure healthy and thick growth. Many of you are in denial and delusional about someone's actually profession over your discomfort. Which is why many stylists do not do the hair of delusional clients. You're not going to be asking me to play captain fix a lot when you are actively contributing to the issues you're thinking deep conditioners and oils will fix.
@@TaedjaireYou just made that 💩 up. That is NOT always the case… 🤫
@@Taedjairethin ends=breakage, different growth rate, or thin hair….
I'm a Rapunzel girl, so, I've NEVER trimmed My hair before for DECADES, but I had hair like hers, wispy at the end, trimmed it off, looked great and healthier!
Why are split ends always deemed to be the problem? Hair shedding is natural, but not uniform. Why is there never the consideration that shorter hairs are those that she'd more recently that the longer ones?
Bc split ends run up the whole shaft and make the hair thinner or snap off completely which makes it look shorter
Baby my hair lady just got me together last month and baby when i tell you wash day was glorious!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾 😭 i could not believe that i didn't have to fight with my hair 😂😂 and it took like an hour off my process. Moral of the story: if you have a good hair lady, just do what she says is necessary!! 😂❤
Any cosmetology book or teacher will show you that split ends are literally strands that are open at the ends. You can see them when you look closely.
These are thinning/uneven. They are not the same as split ends. They may also be split but you have to look at each up close to accurately determine that. 🔍
Yeah. Could just be broken ends.
Is there any difference I want to know .. I didn't understand
@user-uu1kn2np6c split ends are forked at the end (or other parts), they literally split. Like an untied rope. Split ends can cause breakage but theoretically you could just have uneven strands that broke off due to rough care
@user-uu1kn2np6c split ends are exactly what it says. The single hair strand is split at the end and can run the length of the hair. That look like uneven hair. The ends may or may not be split.
THANK YOU!! You can not see where to cut until it is fully straightened. Hair is SUPPOSED to be uneven to an extent. We do not grow hair as a blunt cut. Try this with someone with thick hair, and their hair will look a mess when the humidity hits.
Why would you cut straight across. Should have cut in sections. This woman’s hair is never going to grow more than 2 inches if you keep cutting like that. Stylist love to cut.
Let’s go back to the old school stylists that took their time to last each section and trim it securing by section. This straight across cut will never sit well with me!
They use split ends as an excuse to cut half your hair off.
Yes 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That is the 1st step. Its called cleaning up the perimeter then they go back and cut the inside at an angle then do the front.do you know anything about hair ?
Yes stylist love to cut your hair. They always cut 2 inches more than you ask them to. They want to show you a fresh new cut but you go home pissed and never return to that stylist. If I say trim, I mean trim and not Lop. One of those mysteries of life.
I Don’t mean to be rude but why does thin versus thick ends automatically mean split. It is often not the case. We should start looking at groups who have long hair such as Indians. There is no excessive trimming but use of oil.
It is possible to have less hair at the ends without it being split. Her hair doesn’t look particularly nice like that, but did all of it have to be cut off? Was that all truly split?
One of the reasons many black people do not have long hair is due to the obsession with trims. A trim is not needed every 1-2 months. You can trim even once a year or less if you are caring for your hair and keeping it moisturized
If she hadn't been caring for her hair for awhile, it was probably damaged. I'm sure that she wouldn't have cut that much off unless it was necessary. It's easier to care for heathier hair.
Black peoples hair break 10 times more than other groups. The kinkier the hair the easier it is to break. So we can’t go by what other races do.
Her hair was not healthy. Just being honest.
Because when your hair is this bad you can literally see where the hair broke off. You can tell she naturally has thick hair based on the roots and mid shafts. If she naturally had thin hair it would look like that from roots to ends
@@tyheviadavis2807 From this video, we didn't even get a close up. Your ends are usually thinner than the rest of your hair. So we can't say anything is obvious. We are just so use to seeing the see through test. Plus these blunt cuts can also hide damage. It just makes your hair appear stronger.
I went to the same hairdresser for years before she retired. When I started with her, she said “I believe in healthy hair. If we work together, and you come on a regular basis your hair will be healthy and it will grow.” She stressed limiting heat, dying the hair at home, getting regular trims. I have fine hair that is various textures. I had a relaxer and discovered other hair dressers had been over processing my hair. Anyway, she put me on a schedule for trims, relaxers, and deep conditioning. She also told me I couldn’t get any color change that required bleach because my hair would severely break. Finally, she told me my hair represented her and she didn’t want a client who wouldn’t work with her and get and keep healthy hair. Anyway, I came to her with a pixie cut and ended up with hair almost to my bra strap. And I had a relaxer the entire time! Yes, she trimmed my hair every time she relaxed it. Also, when I came to her my hair was over processed and cut short to cover up the damage. She was very transparent and I miss her. I went through several stylists before I got a good one. She guided my hair from relaxed to natural and through a bout of alopecia that was caused by stress. It’s extremely important to have a trusting relationship with your hair dresser. You both have to agree on a plan for your hair. If the person you’re going to doesn’t do a consultation and suggest a plan. Get out of the chair. You’re in the wrong place.
great story ! great advice ! thank you for sharing !
I wouldn’t appreciate being this client with this type of shade.
I think it's out of wanting to educate that you sometimes can't see what they see after prepping the hair. She leaves as much length as is worth it. This person will have received quality service, imo.

Just because you can see through it doesn't mean its split. Some people have fine hair. You actually have to look at the hair. You probably cut more off than what is needed.
Yeah. Agreed.
She did cut too much!
It's true, but I have fine hair and this isn't fine hair at all, this is breakage or thinning.
@@thedivinefeminine1821 your strands can be thin while your destiny overall (how many strands you have) can be above average making it appear thicker. When comparing your strands you compare to a single piece of thread, if its not as thick as the strand its thin, if its thicker you have thick strands of hair. I have thin strands but amazing destiny which makes people think I have regular thick hair. When its straight you can see the strand thickness and I have to create volume for it not to look flat with a silk press. My sister has an amazing destiny and thick strands and can get away with just a quick bump when straightening.
Just because the hair is thin does not mean it is split. Of course the ends of the longest sections of hair will be thinner unless they are deliberately cut to match the lengths of the hair higher on the head. This split ends misinformation is crazy. Cutting hair does not make it "healthier".
Cutting hair cuts the split and u hekathy ends so it doesn't kill the the hair at top ao or does helo and thin ends I'd uakly due to split ends. When my hair was healthy and longer I had natural layers. The bottom was never super thin except for when kt was split.

I hope this is a joke
I’m pretty sure she informed the client before she just starting cutting. Come on now she got a whole camera set up
That’s exactly what she asked for darling! Put your listening ears on next time.

What’s crazy is sometimes the hair is just uneven when straight because the curls are different lengths to shape the fro. Her ends probably weren’t all that split, just uneven
Everyone talking about that, but my hair is see through from the end to the root.. I have think and medium density hair.. I always thought it was split end and I always cut my hair from time to time but it grows the same way… so girls sometimes it’s just our hair
Thank you for saying this. There's very little information/representation for those of us with thin and/or fine hair.
Yup. I'm glad my cuz ex gf who was a great stylist taught me that. She never wanted to cut my hair when I asked her to. She said I also have hair that doesn't grow evenly, so depending on how you style you don't need to trim often.
Even if this young lady did have some splitends this video did not prove any of that because this is not how you look for split ends
I was a stylist for over 25years and also have thin hair. I taught people how to recognize split ends. You have to look at the end of the hair strand, not transparency.
Does cutting it make it look better or thicker? I just think that thin hair always looks like the hai is just not covering properly. Therefore, I would cut and curl for a more body appearance. I guess. My hair is thick as heck, so I don't know your journey.
@@wandathompson2319 depends on the cut, how thin or fine the hair is and the style you wear it in. I've always had fine but thick hair.
Now that my hair thinning due to illness and hereditary. I don't try to make it even. Most people won't look and know it's 30% thinner than it used to be because I previously had such dense coverage. Even my non growing patches along the hairline is undetectable to most. I feel for people who always had less coverage.
See through does not always mean split ends. I literally have no split ends. However, when I take my hair out of its natural state and blow dry it. It looks just like hers. The longer my hair gets the curls loosen towards the bottom. No breakage. No split ends. Cutting layers looks great for this type of hair if you want to wear it straight.
Yeah it’s shedding.
Looser curls does not equal thinner, you should cut the thinking ends off anyways
This was my story for years but for me it was annoying. I was constantly doing tiny trims. My hair WAS this length 2 weeks ago. However after years of hanging on to thin ends, I started doing 2inches every 3months only for my hair to grow back 4-6in. What I realized is those tiny trims and 2inch cut each time, killed my progress. I finally got it cut above th thin area because I was tired of the tangles and losing progress. I'm not worried, my hair grows like a weed. But to each her own.
Those are split/damaged ends. If it doesn’t get cut, it’s going to keep rising up the hair shaft. There should never be that drastic of a density. If your ends are that sparse you have breakage that needs to be trimmed off.
@@Mel-so2rw it could also be a drastic amount of hair shedding. This is why you see women of other races with tapered ends, yet the hair continues to get longer. Hair is usually never completely dense throughout the length of the hair.
Each strand grows at there own pace its not split ends its simply some strands of hair are longer than other strands. I would be pissed.🧚🏽♂️🧿🧚🏽♀️

This is not a sign of split ends. It’s a sign that she went through a major change in her hair growth cycle and most it fell out. The bottom layer is the old, old hair that clung on. It’s different in texture, too
I would prefer it flat iron before cutting it because honestly it could look like all split ends when not straight ❤
Probably to the untrained person claiming to be the best. Thats why you gotta shop around and read reviews and watch videos of their work. I’m not even trained but can see the thinness of all that she cut off.
Once you cut off the split ends, her hair is going to be so much healthier, and flowing. It will grow especially with scalp massages. She’s going to love it ❤
She found soneone to take care of her hair🌹🌹🌹
Thats normal as its the oldest part of the hair. Its not an issue
It's a mess and is not worth keeping the ends, it's snapping off/makes your hair look thinner
To anyone that maybe a curly natural most of the time, here are some ways i can tell its time for the coils to get a cut:
1. Brush doesnt go through the ends
2. More tangled that usual
3. Weird curl at the ends
4. Looks like its 2 coils at the end
5. Been longer than 4 mos
Keeping your ends oiled will avoid split ends issues. It be nice if they let people know this
So true. I oil my ends every other day and every day up to wash day.
Less friction will make even a bigger difference. Protective styles.

Just because hair looks like this doesn’t mean it’s always split ends sometimes it’s just that some hair grows faster than the others.
Bald stylists always cut people's hair
😂😂😂. Now I’m about to start looking at the stylist lenght before every trim because I think there may be some truth to this comment.

Good Luck with that since the majority of beauticians are either all natural, or wearing pony tails, wigs and braids .. at least this has been my experience with stylist who have an abundance of clients. 😊
They wanna cut people's hair cause I think people usually need a trim cause we ALWAYS wanna keep aa much as we can!! Nobody wants to admit to badly needing a cut cause it's been 2 damn years since the last one and we have heat damage, styling damage and any other damage we can do to our precious locks!!
How does that statement apply here since she has dead ends that need to be cut off?
@@nadirashabazz1033Exactly 💯
Every hair stylist have said I have split ends to the root😒 and always have let them cut it. Now my hair has grown to my butt typically takes it about 4 to 5 years to get that length. Now I'm 44 I don't trust hair stylist because now I just think my hair just grows uneven.
Sounds like you have course hair too. As long as you’re not putting excessive heat on it every day and sleep in a bonnet, your hair should be fine
Ponytails did me dirty with the uneven thing. Some split ends, so I cut it into a bob back then. Now im loc'd so it doesn't matter, really 😅😅😅
In my experience,thin ends are just the long way around split ends, because thin ends make tangels ,tangles lead to brakeage,breakage means ur gonna start seeing alot of dead and split ends.
Some of these comments reek of envy, talking about "She should've cut more of it." Y'all tripping fr
Nothing grows on barren land. The sooner she gets rid of the damaged hair, she will have room for healthier hair.
Nobody envious of dead stringy dry thin ends.
exactly . envious
GWORLLLLL! The hell you say!😂😂 Good job 👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
She doesn’t have splits, it’s see through at the bottom. And I DONT have split ends because I trim my hair ever 3 months to keep my ends blunt❤
But it is ugly when the hair is thick on the top and thin on the bottom. She has to accept that her hair doesn't grow that far....
This was my mom with me. I took down her 5 month cornrows, detangled, washed, dyed, blow dried, flat ironed, and trimmed. She had some split ends, so i told her I was going to trim her hair. Tell me why this woman cried. I barely took an inch (she honestly needed a little more) and she had a fit. Saying she couldnt put her hair in a ponytail anymore and just overall upset at the job I'd done. But to make it worse, she used to be a cosmetologist in the 90s. I was baffled!
If you’re natural your hair is at different lengths because of shrinkage, cutting the bottom of her hair is not “cutting off all the split ends” I learned that from experience. We should start cutting natural hair by sections, not by just he bottom 😅
Hair strands grow at different speeds, and hair that is not even doesn't mean it's damaged.
It would have been nice to see the whole process.
Chopped shorty when a trim would’ve sufficed. Her hair looks naturally thin…see through does not equal split.
You don't see that line of demarcation? It's full until a clearly defined point. All that is dead ends. That's why y'all be baldheaded now holding on to any semblance of "length." Then it starts breaking off. Rinse, repeat.
@@renee9959 she could've been recovering from hair loss...
@@renee9959 But all that means is that her hair is fragile and when it gets long - read "old" -- it breaks off. That doesn't necessarily mean she has split ends.
wtf are you referring to, I know it ain’t the girl in this video
Thank you!!! I’m so tired of people always saying split ends!!! That is breakage!!! Lord !!! Lol
And will tell people "she scissor happy, heffa cut all my hair"😂
You did a beautiful job with her hair. I love her totally grey color of hair. ❤❤❤
I have split ends and fairy knots. My hair pretty much ties itself into a bow.
Same here! 😂😂😂
My daughter gets them as well! Drives me nuts! 😂😂@@jovialjae
@@ScorpioKay1027 🤣 i just got a trim yesterday so im good for the next 4-6 weeks. And then....they'll be back. 🥲🤣🤣🤣
Same and trimming doesn’t help much.
What's a fairy knot?
I could never allow anyone to trim my hair straight across like this.
This is a *new* "stylist" thing. I never saw anyone cutting this lazy until a few years back, and I'm almost 40. That is not the way to do it, like at all.
@@arianneess47What type of trim should one ask for to get a proper trim? Is there a name?
@@arianneess47there'd nothing lazy sbout cutting straught vs layers. Not everyone wnats layers people woll litterlaly request to have their hair all yhe same length so cut straught across
Y not u don't want your hair even? Lmao
@@hi78889 why on earth would I want my hair cut this way bahahahaha terrible
Her hair says it ALL
Tip for my thick haired ladies. Straight across blunt cut gives the illusion of thicker hair. Also harder to style. Harder to hold curl etc. have it point cut with long sizzors or long layers feathered whatever
Everyone is educated on what healthy hair looks like. It's the stylist that should teach them and not talk about them. This is the issue people have with going to salons. Everything is a joke.
Literally just cut all her hair. And this is the problem that stylist have. Thin hair doesn't =split ends.
Thanks for letting us see the finished product
Stylists like this are not gonna see pearly gates for the way they lie. She doesn't have splits, hair tapers towards the bottom thats natural. If she wanted you to cut her hair to make it look thicker and more blunt then have it at it but you just chopped off healthy hair from that lady.
That looked like healthy hair to you? Ok girl.
@@2785ap thin does not equal unhealthy, that was healthy hair.
I, too, suffer from the “I don’t have split ends!” delusion. Knowing damn well the ends of my hair feel like broken straw.
This video made me want to go see my stylist 😅
Before I didn’t actually know what split ends looked like so I always kept saying ”my hair is good! No split ends and healthy!” Then when my cousin became a hairdresser she walked up to me and had a talk with me- my hair is not good- she said that I sadly won’t be able to color my hair anymore and she showed me how split ends looked like and I how I will see it on my hair, I got so sad but wow- I needed that reality check from her, my hair was close to actually breaking or falling out if I kept dying it in different colors so instead of coloring it she made a washing appointment instead and put the good stuff in my hair so she could show me what to use and how to use it, I’m so greatful that she did❤️
Yeah, I always think my hair is WORSE than what it actually is lol
She got blessed and found the right hairstyle ❤
I have hypothyroidism and every couple of years my hair sheds like 50 % of its volume. Overtime, it grows back and my hair looks like this, it’s not spilt ends- but it doesn’t look good 😩
I LOVE CLIPPING MY ENDS😊 MAKES MY HAIR FEEL/LOOK STRONGER AND BOUNCY ❤❤❤
Same with cleaning houses. The ones that say... "it's not that bad" have the dirtiest homes!
HEALTH OVER LENGTH, sisters. She’s gonna fall in love with her hair all over again ❤
No she won't. Because that wasn't split ends that she cut off. Split ends are only supposed to be 1" of the hair, not 3 to 4 inches.
Those aren't split ends. They're THIN ends😭 its probably okay to cut them off because they're weak and probably are more prone to developing split ends or amy form of breakage in general but they aren't split, or probably arent. Can't make them out just from this
Split ends break off, which causes the ends to thin out like this. The longer you go without removing them, the bigger cut you will need.
Them ends was damaged and needed to be cut
@@KristenS91 I don't think so. Dry ends break off, not split ends. If your split ends are dry, then yes, they'll break. Thin ends can happen for a variety of reasons, not just split ends. I won't say they're damaged, rather, they're weak and prone to damage hence can be cut off. Some of them can also be as a result of damage or damaging practices
@@tricethomas9653 I don't even know what to say because you probably read the top part and ran with it. Read the whole thing madam
@@princess_lookbook Split ends absolutely make your hair frizzy and dry. They knot up, tangle, and break off. There is a reason people say their hair behaves much differently after getting a trim/cut. Once the hair strand is split there is no repairing it. A simple google search will tell you this.
With African and curly hair when you straighten it you will always have see through no matter how healthy the hair because curly hair is cut different then straight if you are jumping between natural and straight hair most likely the see through isn't Split ends its and uneven cut for straight hair
It reeeeally does
not
matter
not one iota.
She could have kept growing her hair and if she's happy and content with her hair, she wins out over every woman who's fussing with herself at the hairdressers every month.
Let it go. Let it go ❄️ 👉 It doesn't matter one iota.
...Split ends and breakage never bothered me any way. 🙌
Idek why people bother trying to lie to people who are deadass professionals, as if they won’t catch any of the lies 💀
She does not have a lot of hair splits, reason being the hair will not be in same size since that is push back you have done. So if you cut it like that you will shorten and cut a big size of back hair. Instead to look for splits divide hair in sections that when you will get a better look. There you will cut not only healthy hair (big amount) and split ends. Which I think she doesn't deserve
I thought I wasn’t seeing correctly. They chopped off so much hair for what.
Her hair needed it
Yeah Shatara, it's maybe having split ends but cutting it from back does not justify her hair. There you chopped large amount of healthy back hair. I don't think judging that she has split ends by pushing hair back is justice to her hair. The hair should be divided into small section to determine that. Remember the shape of the head is not a flat surface but it takes spherical or circular shape. So according to pushback you did, it does not justify split ends at all. I can tell from experience
@@naturalshatara9559 from my knowledge the split hair is usually the already broken strands she’s literally cutting good hair to be the length of the “broken off” pieces which still doesn’t make sense bc like this commenter said even if your hair grows evenly all around your head pulling it straight back to do that cut will make it look uneven. Truth is the main stylist you see cut like this is black. Every other race knows to cut in sections and layers , not straight across 2-6 inches giving each of your clients a bob they did not ask for.
All these Stylist do is Clown you after they robbed you...and you trusting them.
😂😂😂
Everybody has split ends, even with a fresh haircut. I am weary of stylist because NO ONE hair grows bluntly and evenly, and black hair isn't fully thick near the ends, so whats "see through" isn't alwyas damaged and needs to be cut.
It's funny how all of the natural hair youtubers with waist length hair don't go to salons 😂. And they all have thinner ends none of this blunt mess.
THISSSSSSSS! Idk if it’s just me but I don’t see anything wrong with her hair
"But igaabukaway" wtf she say at the end lmaooooo
It's normal for the hair to be thinner at the end.😅
It’s not
@@hortensamccorkle2006 how so?
It totally is and only in a certain community do I see people saying it's damage 😂
People really be in denial about their hair like they don’t have to look at it everyday, and see that it’s not healthy lol. Let the damaged ends go. Your hair grows more when you get it trimmed! I love getting my ends clipped.
That problem has been going on for a long time! You still needed to cut it higher to give her a fresh start. Vanity or attachment has to go out the window.
As a retired hair care professional, it is no such thing as thinning at the ends without some form of damage such as split ends and knots leading to breakage.
People who say they don't have split ends but their hair is see through like this, it's because they HAD split ends /knots and the split or knotted hair already broke off. This causes damage which is why it looks this way.
If your hair is thinning (excessive shedding), it will NOT just thin on the ends like this. It will be thin FROM THE SCALP too. As you can see, this client has not addressed her spilt ends for so long that at least 2 inches of hair must be cut.
It is practically impossible to see the health if coily hair without it being straight. Do not believe for a minute that damage has not occurred.
It's NOT necessarily split ends: the hairs 6 grow at different rates. I have straight hair with no split ends (I know what they look like), and when my hair grows long, it gets different lengths.
Straighten it out first
Okay but there’s a difference between split ends and hair growing at different rates. It did need to go but get it right lol 😂
