I hope this helps you have more confidence with cutting your bangs when you can't get to a stylist to do it. Did this help? I'd love to hear what your favorite tip was?? :)
Justin Hickox I just went in the bathroom and did exactly what you did on the video. The best tip was to just trim with a comb only the part above the high point of your brow. Then taper sides. 💕. They turned out perfectly!!!!
Jackie Brown - Agree Jackie! I did the same thing. I had been cutting them with the scissors the wrong way and I followed Justin’s instructions and mine also are greatly improved. Very easy to follow instructions.
OH MY GOODNESS JUSTIN!!! I watched this video a few times, trying to decide if I could actually pull off trimming my own bangs. Well tonight I got tired of my bangs being to long and not being able to manage them, so I. Carefully followed your direction and trimmed them. They ate actually even! And manageable again! Thank you so much!!!!
Thanks much Justin, there are many of us out there who cannot afford frequent trims, I survive on disability and I know there are many out there who survive on less. Knowing these tips really helps women with self esteem. You are a good man.
You're not the only one, haircuts have went up in price since covid. I cut my own hair & my own bangs. If I mess up my hair, I have only myself to blame. There have been several stylists that have boogers up my hair
I am also a licensed hairdresser, and I really like the way you help people do DIY. Some people cannot afford to get their hair done. I have done Pro bono work, because some people just need a lift and hair does that. I so enjoy your tutorials, Thanks for sharing. I love hairdressers that share and help the guys that can't afford the very best. Thanks.
It was VERY helpful that you had your model do the cutting herself, figuring out how to hold contort you body to do some of this stuff is tricky. My hairstylist is worth every penny she charges and more. Thanks
Thank you! I’m glad that approach helped you. I feel that this is the best approach to teach people how to do hair at their own home on themselves. It’s not the same with me showing you how I would do it on me it’s easier and more effective in my opinion to show you have someone else would do it on them selves.
I’ve not been to a salon in over 25 years. I gave up and have been cutting my own waist length hair myself. The one thing I’ve never been happy with is my bangs. The tips about where to start are SO helpful! I’ve been doing everything else right but starting with the wrong “foundation”! It will take time to correct my mistake but I so appreciate your guidance. Thank you so much!🙏🏻
Wow congrats on the fact you've been cutting your own hair all these years! I am about to leave my very good but becoming too expensive for me, hairstylist, now, age 53. I'm quite dextrous in arts/crafts but doing my own hair is another level. I've just pulled off Brad Mondo's Butterfly cut and it gave me an appetite to take it further. I'm loving it in fact!
@@Hana-su7zg I had to look up Brad Mondo's Butterfly cut! I looks like a great cut! I think I'd have to let my bangs grow out a bit for it to look good. As I've aged I've become more bold about what I do with scissors to my hair ; ) Thanks so much for the comment and the Mondo link! I may try it out with shorter bangs...what the heck!
@@mamalovesthebeach437 You can totally customize it, I have somewhat shorter bangs myself. The Butterfly cut is mainly to give you a very easy layered cut. But it's not perfect, it's just too simple. I'm already seeing less-than-perfect areas in it and watching loads of tutorials to learn to perfect it. Layering, point cutting, feather razors, all that stuff, how exciting! Collecting my hairdressing tools bit by bit. Never realized that it's actually fairly easy, once you learn what to do, all the sectioning, some clever hack techniques like the twist technique for the bangs etc. Wish I'd done it years ago but I guess all the DIY tutorials exploded thanks to the lockdowns. There are some great videos, check out wolf cut too, good luck and have fun 😄
Best video EVER on how to cut your own bangs and style them. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your professional knowledge and skill. Every quarantined woman with bangs in her eyes will bless you.
Funny thing: I actually want those edgy, spunky, out-of-my-eyes, square bangs cut further back on the sides, to widen my forehead. And now I know how to do that, God willing! So excited! Thank you!
I WISH YOU COULD CUT MY HAIR! I probably only had 5 good hair cuts in my 60 years! I HATE going to get my hair cut because no one cuts it right, I always walk out disappointed and waiting for it to grow out! THIS IS THE STORY OF MY HAIR CUTTING LIFE
This was super helpful. I especially loved how you talked about cutting the center and leaving the outer bangs longer and then connecting them. That makes so much sense. 💕💕
Thank you for this very helpful video. I have the same hair as your model so styling it is easy and cutting it no rocket science. I go to a hair stylist regularly, but I refuse to go every month just to adapt my bangs, so they progressively disappear. And now that I decided to buy a good scissor and watch your tutorial I am very happy with the result when I look in the mirror.
I like the tip about having the hair resting in the comb and trimming up from there instead of pulling your bags down and trimming. Also I appreciate how you made the bang slope to the outside by just cutting the center part of the bangs from center to center of eyebrow.
GREATLY appreciated your tutorial. Trimming my own bangs for the first time due to our current Stay At Home order. Didn’t have the proper shears, but thanks to your technique, they turned out fine with the scissors I had at home. Your video was a godsend!
Great video Justin, I've been cutting my own bangs, between haircuts, for years. I basically follow what you said, just not with as much finesse. Now I know the ins and outs, my bangs will be even better. Thanks
My stylist is going to LOVE you for teaching me this! I always trim my bangs straight across and they always end up being too short & uneven. Also love the blow drying technique you showed us Thanks for great tutorial!
You’re SO welcome Stacy!!! I’m really glad it helped!!! Thanks for the feedback and thanks for checking out the video!!! Anything else you’d like to see a future video on?
@@justinhickox I'd love to learn how to get some volume at the crown! Btw, I tried the blow drying technique for my bangs and it worked like a charm! I have cowlicks in my bang area, and it gets frustrating trying to get them to stay down. Also, I have the Dyson blow dryer you used in this tutorial and was wondering what attachment you used? Was it the smoothing one? Thanks for helping me, I really appreciate it!
This is a great video. I can’t tell you how many times I have botched a bang job. My hair grows super fast and my bangs would grow out before I was ready to go to the salon. I quit wearing bangs because of this even though I do like the way I look with bangs more than without. Thanks again for the tips
I've cut my own bangs for a long time, and this was hugely helpful. I've made, at one time or another, all the mistakes you've outlined, but I never really figured out what I'd done wrong. :D Thank you!
thank you so much. For many reasons....covid....anxiety....stress.....agoraphobia-ish-ness.....I cannot bring myself to leave my house. But I very much need my bangs trimmed. I have done all the wrong things so far. sigh. But now I know what I have been doing wrong and I have lots of hope that I can repair my mistakes. Your teaching is just perfect. Thank you more than you can even imagine!! And such a beautiful, beautiful girl who shows how to follow your directions.
Super helpful! Years ago I had a fantastic stylist who taught all of her clients how to trim their own bangs. Her reasoning was that they are going to do it anyway, why not teach them how to do a decent job that can easily be fixed during their next appointment.
@8:30 the back and forth dry method. Let me tell you. I have a cowlick from you know where and it's in my bangs area. When I dried my hair like this, voila. Cowlick gone! Thanks.
Thank you Janelle! I think that’s a mark of a confident stylist. It’s always super nice to have support from other professionals like you. Thanks again!
I am so GLAD I just found this video. Literally the best instructions I have seen. Wish I seen this last time I cut my bangs. Wow. So very thorough. I’ve watched a few of the top & they’re not quite this thorough. Thanks!!!
I was just about ready to start cutting my bangs....My daughter walked in on me and told me to stop until she gets me into her chair (she's my stylist)....But I was ready to do it....Oval face and was really ready to GO FOR IT!!! You are a great instructor!!
Thank you! I really appreciate that. And trust me, you’re not alone in that! A lot of people do what they’re not supposed to do because they haven’t had anyone tell them differently.
@@justinhickox I just found your videos yesterday. I am only about a hundred miles away in Olympia, Wa... and I desperately need a hair stylist like you! Don't be surprised if I show up on your doorstep when this lock down is lifted!!
Aren't you marvelous! Exceptionally helpful instruction; thank you for making the lockdown more beautiful and manageable. I can't believe I once tried to cut my bangs without your videos--totally different outcome!
Thank you! That’s awesome. I love hearing that. I’m so glad I could help you. Have you had a chance to register for my free webinar were I talk all about cutting and coloring your hair at home? You may really like it. There’s a link in the description of this video so you can check out our next one in a couple of days if you want.
Justin, this was SO helpful, THANK YOU! I pretty much did all the "don'ts" recently, and have had to clip my bangs up for the last 2 months till they grew out again. Now ready to fix the mess I made, but needed pro help. You supplied that step-by-step *perfectly*. I get it now - you're a great teacher. Keep it up. Thank again! :D
That’s awesome! I’m so glad I could help. Are you going to be joining us for the live webinar tomorrow about how to do your hair at home? If you plan on it and you have an already registered make sure you register. There’s a link in the description of my most recent video so that you can do that. Looking forward to it
Omg I absolutely must share this silly story about cutting bangs!! Ok so I have this cousin who lived w me & 1 day she said I need to trim these bangs,they r too long lol! Welp she started cutting & it was crooked she kept trying to make them even but it got so bad she literally cut all bangs off & was left with spikes!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣This video brought me not only great funny memory but also how to really cut bangs!!! Thank you so much for this video…I’m sending it to my cousin…she will know right away!!🤣😂😂😂😂
That was awesome! I’d been doing it wrong forever. Unfortunately so have many hair stylists I’ve gone too. How about a video on how to find a great hair stylist?
Thank you, Justin, for your great videos and tips! This video helped me trim a few bangs to soften my look and gave me the confidence to go for a chin length bob. My husband says it makes me look much younger. Thank you!
Very easy to understand & follow with suprißingky good results, even for myself. Let me tell you, I'm quite the imbusile when it comes to styling, fashion, or creativity. 52 years old and just did my own dye job. Which brings to point the instructional video here that was also helpful.
Awesome! I appreciate the feedback. I’m glad that tip helped. Have you had a chance to register for my webinar all about how to cut and color your hair at home?
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE??!! Great video...best I've ever seen!!! Thank you...now maybe I won't have to wear a ball cap for weeks... For me your biggest tip was how to cut on an angle. I've described this to stylist TOO MANY TIMES just to get a deer in headlights look....frustrating!! Thanks, thanks...THANKS!!!!
I just watched your video and then cut my bangs -- they came out perfect!!!! I like them to come down past my brows lightly touching the tops of my glasses - this is awesome!! Thank you so much!!!
I absolutely love the new facial hair. Either way you're very handsome and professional, but the beard has a whole new style to you. And by the way " All About Style" is what I suggested your show should be called. I have been a stylist since 1968 since I graduated from Pittsburgh beauty academy but I watch you faithfully to always learn more. Thank you Justin. Keep the videos coming ❤️
Love this. I FEEL like, "Cousin It", from the Addams family, at this point...I have scalp issues...too embarrassed to go to a stylist...Haven't had my hair nicely cut in over a year and a half...I have been just butchering it myself when I can't take it anymore...just a little here a little there.
All of this was helpful. I’ve been staying at home due to the plague. I have cut my bangs completely wrong - straight across cut, drying straight down, pulling them down with my fingers, and failing to cut the center section first. Fortunately my stylist had already given me bangs, so I didn’t cut too far to the sides. My bangs have grown out from my whacking. I’m going to try your way. More later.
That’s awesome! Sounds like you’re in good shape with those bangs! Can’t wait to hear how it turns out! And thank you....I try my hardest to respond to every comment. I don’t always make it, but I give it my best try! :)
Saved my day! Great video (all of your videos are), thank you! I have corrected the bang a hair stylist made, and now hace the right shape for my face and I like it much better!
I just came across a photo of me from 6 years ago with side swept bangs and I'm thinking I need to get the bangs back. They had grown out to almost my chin. I watched your video twice and may attempt them if I can't get into a salon. Thank you so much 😀
@@justinhickoxthank you. I'm thinking a salon will do a better job. I found a salon on yelp with good reviews and especially for a particular stylist and an appointment for June 22, so busy they are.
Thank you. My stylist corrects my in between visits for me with out complaining. You have shown how I have been doing it wrongly lol, Can't wait to see to try it teaching out.
I followed your instructions and I had already prepared a joke to tell others after cutting bangs: I ran out of things to regret. 😂 it turned out so nice though! so now I don't have use for that joke... thank you very, very much! this turned out great but I really miss having somebody cut my hair for me and shampoo my head like I'm being well taken care of. hairstylists are still the best and you the bestest!
This is the best kind of compliment I can get! Thank you so much. I’m so glad this video helped you out and I totally understand what you’re saying about in salon services. I appreciate you!
Thanks Justin, this looks like the Goldie Hawn style fringe that I’ve been admiring for a while, i.e. longer at the sides. If I’m brave I might try. I liked the fact you didn’t take over and showed your model doing the cutting. Best wishes from England.
Awesome! Thank you for the feedback. I’m so glad you liked the video. I would much rather have the clients do their own hair, in a video like this. I’m glad that worked well for you
I was very impressed with this video and I plan to do just a little trimming since seeing my stylist is not possible now with the lockdown. I also subscribed. I have fine hair (☹️), and I also watched your video for fine hair which is very helpful. I want to wear my hair a little longer than I have for years, and it was helpful to convey this to my stylist when I can get there.
Okay you just said the placement of the comb I've heard that a million times but never why so I know now where my hair is going to fall putting the comb on top of my HEAD WOW JUST BLEW MY MIND breath away seriously THANK YOU NOW IM GOING TO FINISH THE VIDEO ILL BE BACK JUSTIN LOL TO COMMENT AGAIN
That bit about non directional drying is amazing. I have just had a fringe (in the UK) cut but I have a really strong part and widows peak. Even the stylist couldn’t get it to sit right. Fortunately I remembered this video! What’s really weird is how the parting makes it bounce up. When I style it it’s a good length, in the morning it looks almost an inch shorter. 😜
Thanks so much. I was holding my bangs up in the air and trimming them. I always have one annoying spot on the end that wants to flip up no matter how many times I straighten it.
This is an awesome video!... you really explain everything so well and specifically.... so happy I found your channel!... much love and appreciation!.💜💜💜💜💜
Great explanations, and extra helpful having your model follow your instructions, just as I would be doing. I miss my hairstylist, but I am desperate to cut my hair!
I have been needing this!!! I only got my hair twice a year. But obviously my bangs need more attention than that. I have all of the tools, but still need some skills.
I subscribed because anything I can do myself and not paying for and now driving since gas is 4.09 per gallon. 2 years ago it was 1.80 a gallon or less. Thank You so very very much 🥰🦊💜
Great video! Very informative! I noticed in comments below that I have a “sister of the cowlick!” It’s especially tough dealing with it and styling bangs. I do try and dry the opposite way. I have a high forehead (5-head), and have worn bangs both parted to the side and straight across, blended into longer sides, as you’ve shown here. I’ve got to say, the ones going across seem much more flattering on me. Thanks so much, Justin. I must do my bangs now, as I can’t get to my stylist due to a stay at home order. Stay safe! 😘
I a, like you C.M. Hall. I have to wear bangs. I have been fighting with my hairdresser for far to long and now I’m looking for a new one. I put a post on Facebook and I have gotten 0 responses. I’m so frustrated and upset. I have the cowlick too. I have a high forward. I love having straight bangs. He just won’t listen and does his thing and I end up cutting my bangs. I’m still watching but was looking for the texturing shears. I don’t get why someone who also just raised his prices without notice Won’t listen to me and what I want. Sorry for going on but I’m glad I’m not the only one with the issue and Justin you’re so easy to learn from. I have a few more to watch and will keep you on my bell. Nikki
@@CMojoRising Thanks, you are so sweet. I’m even having trouble getting my groomer to call for my little Japanese Chin. They won’t answer and I have left 2 messages since Wednesday. I’m beginning to think it’s me now. I know I’m a sweet person and Gracie is a doll. I’ll keep trying and maybe she just doesn’t want my money.
Fantastic content even for us short-haired girls. As I always say point cut on dry hair because too many people end up with buster Brown bangs. Love your content
Just discovered your channel and first things first....subscribed! What a very nice opportunity you have given with your expertise for those of us that are unable to get to a salon due to the restrictions. Thank you so very much.
Oh gosh I absolutely love your videos, I can’t tell you how helpful they’ve been for me especially during Covid and my hairdresser is still shut down so watching your awesome videos have saved me from making so many mistakes when I trimmed my hair and especially my bangs, Thanks again 😊✂️💇🏻♀️
Loved the video. Thank you for sharing the proper techniques. I honestly thought you just cut straight across. I am to scared to cut my own bangs. But am now willing to try trimming myself..
You're a very good teacher 💯👌!!! Thanks so much for your great video. I can understand now how I made a mess of my bangs when I needed to trim them between going for cuts to my stylist.
Thank You I love love your videos I am so thrilled I found ya What a pro and what great videos I have already registered for one of your videos starting in a few minutes I am hooked
Justin- YOU ROCK!! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your knowledge with the world! I've always been judged by my looks (true, natural redhead) and conformed to how stylists "think my hair should be cut and styled" and your videos have taught me alot to do it my way- cut my own hair and enjoy what I like (and want). Happy! Happy! Joy! Joy! 😊😍🤗
Now I'm going to have to go check the size of the blade on my thinning sheers. ;) Thanks! Great post. I have cut too far & gotten the square bang b4. That is very hard to blend in. Love the comb trick, never know quite where to start taking from.
Whenever I went to a stylist, I would watch their methods VERY closely...and then replicate them at home myself (and for much cheaper!). The number one tip: DON'T cut too much. You can always go shorter, you can't go longer!
I just recently discovered your channel and I'm loving your videos! However I would like to time travel back to my college self and tell her these tricks in order to save decades of bad self-haircuts!!

Exceptionally helpful instruction; thank you for making the lockdown more beautiful and manageable.
I can't believe I once tried to cut my bangs without your videos--totally different outcome!
Thank you! That’s awesome. I love hearing that. I’m so glad I could help you. Have you had a chance to register for my free webinar were I talk all about cutting and coloring your hair at home? You may really like it. There’s a link in the description of this video so you can check out our next one in a couple of days if you want.
Very helpful, thanks! I particularly appreciate the specifics on what angle to hold my shears.
Thank you Tracy! I’m glad I could help you out with that! Thanks for the feedback!
Justin, this was SO helpful, THANK YOU! I pretty much did all the "don'ts" recently, and have had to clip my bangs up for the last 2 months till they grew out again. Now ready to fix the mess I made, but needed pro help. You supplied that step-by-step *perfectly*. I get it now - you're a great teacher. Keep it up. Thank again! :D
That’s awesome! I’m so glad I could help. Are you going to be joining us for the live webinar tomorrow about how to do your hair at home? If you plan on it and you have an already registered make sure you register. There’s a link in the description of my most recent video so that you can do that. Looking forward to it
Omg I absolutely must share this silly story about cutting bangs!! Ok so I have this cousin who lived w me & 1 day she said I need to trim these bangs,they r too long lol! Welp she started cutting & it was crooked she kept trying to make them even but it got so bad she literally cut all bangs off & was left with spikes!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣This video brought me not only great funny memory but also how to really cut bangs!!! Thank you so much for this video…I’m sending it to my cousin…she will know right away!!🤣😂😂😂😂
That was awesome! I’d been doing it wrong forever. Unfortunately so have many hair stylists I’ve gone too. How about a video on how to find a great hair stylist?
Thank you, Justin, for your great videos and tips! This video helped me trim a few bangs to soften my look and gave me the confidence to go for a chin length bob. My husband says it makes me look much younger. Thank you!
This video was great! Now after all these years I finally understand how to cut my bangs if I need to . Thanks so much!!
Love the comb trick to see where to properly separate what to cut and what not to cut. Never knew that. Thank you!
Your welcome! Glad it was helpful!
Very easy to understand & follow with suprißingky good results, even for myself. Let me tell you, I'm quite the imbusile when it comes to styling, fashion, or creativity. 52 years old and just did my own dye job. Which brings to point the instructional video here that was also helpful.
I never quite knew how wide my bangs should be or about the tapering down the sides. I found this demonstration helpful. Thank you
I love this video . I’ve had bangs all my life and I love the way you have explained different ways to cut bangs ! Love it 👍
Thank you
I cut my bangs a lot and this info will make it look so much better.
The over the crest of the eye part really is the best tip.
Awesome! I appreciate the feedback. I’m glad that tip helped. Have you had a chance to register for my webinar all about how to cut and color your hair at home?
Yes it may not be a good idea BUT - there’s some laughs to be had afterwards! I’ve done it. Thank you!
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE??!!
Great video...best I've ever seen!!! Thank you...now maybe I won't have to wear a ball cap for weeks...
For me your biggest tip was how to cut on an angle. I've described this to stylist TOO MANY TIMES just to get a deer in headlights look....frustrating!!
Thanks, thanks...THANKS!!!!
That’s awesome! I’m so glad I can help. I really appreciate the feedback.
I just watched your video and then cut my bangs -- they came out perfect!!!! I like them to come down past my brows lightly touching the tops of my glasses - this is awesome!! Thank you so much!!!
That’s the best compliment I could get! I’m so stoked to hear it!
I absolutely love the new facial hair. Either way you're very handsome and professional, but the beard has a whole new style to you. And by the way " All About Style" is what I suggested your show should be called. I have been a stylist since 1968 since I graduated from Pittsburgh beauty academy but I watch you faithfully to always learn more. Thank you Justin. Keep the videos coming ❤️
Love this. I FEEL like, "Cousin It", from the Addams family, at this point...I have scalp issues...too embarrassed to go to a stylist...Haven't had my hair nicely cut in over a year and a half...I have been just butchering it myself when I can't take it anymore...just a little here a little there.
All of this was helpful. I’ve been staying at home due to the plague. I have cut my bangs completely wrong - straight across cut, drying straight down, pulling them down with my fingers, and failing to cut the center section first. Fortunately my stylist had already given me bangs, so I didn’t cut too far to the sides. My bangs have grown out from my whacking. I’m going to try your way. More later.
PS You’ve responded to more questions than anyone else on RUclips - by a lot! Thank-you.
That’s awesome! Sounds like you’re in good shape with those bangs! Can’t wait to hear how it turns out! And thank you....I try my hardest to respond to every comment. I don’t always make it, but I give it my best try! :)
Saved my day! Great video (all of your videos are), thank you! I have corrected the bang a hair stylist made, and now hace the right shape for my face and I like it much better!
I wish I had you to do my bangs, I had bangs for years now I’ve been without for years. I’m ready for them to come back in a updated way.
I just came across a photo of me from 6 years ago with side swept bangs and I'm thinking I need to get the bangs back. They had grown out to almost my chin. I watched your video twice and may attempt them if I can't get into a salon. Thank you so much 😀
Awesome! You’re so welcome. I can’t wait to hear how it turns out if you decide to do it.
@@justinhickoxthank you. I'm thinking a salon will do a better job. I found a salon on yelp with good reviews and especially for a particular stylist and an appointment for June 22, so busy they are.
Don't worry about it....all the Hairdressers are on here as well!!! 😀 l appreciate 🙏 all of you for doing this!!! Thank you so much!!!! 🙏 👍
Thank you. My stylist corrects my in between visits for me with out complaining. You have shown how I have been doing it wrongly lol, Can't wait to see to try it teaching out.
I’m glad I can help!!! I’ll be interested to hear if you’re stylist notices your improved bang trimming skills at your next appointment! :)
I followed your instructions and I had already prepared a joke to tell others after cutting bangs: I ran out of things to regret. 😂
it turned out so nice though! so now I don't have use for that joke... thank you very, very much! this turned out great but I really miss having somebody cut my hair for me and shampoo my head like I'm being well taken care of. hairstylists are still the best and you the bestest!
This is the best kind of compliment I can get! Thank you so much. I’m so glad this video helped you out and I totally understand what you’re saying about in salon services. I appreciate you!
Thanks Justin, this looks like the Goldie Hawn style fringe that I’ve been admiring for a while, i.e. longer at the sides. If I’m brave I might try. I liked the fact you didn’t take over and showed your model doing the cutting. Best wishes from England.
Awesome! Thank you for the feedback. I’m so glad you liked the video. I would much rather have the clients do their own hair, in a video like this. I’m glad that worked well for you
Thank you Justin, this is the best DIY bangs video I found so far, and I've been searching!
I was very impressed with this video and I plan to do just a little trimming since seeing my stylist is not possible now with the lockdown. I also subscribed.
I have fine hair (☹️), and I also watched your video for fine hair which is very helpful. I want to wear my hair a little longer than I have for years, and it was helpful to convey this to my stylist when I can get there.
Thank you Yvonne! And welcome to the fam! I appreciate the support a ton!
Okay you just said the placement of the comb I've heard that a million times but never why so I know now where my hair is going to fall putting the comb on top of my HEAD WOW JUST BLEW MY MIND breath away seriously THANK YOU NOW IM GOING TO FINISH THE VIDEO ILL BE BACK JUSTIN LOL TO COMMENT AGAIN
Love it! You rock! Glad I could bring that home for ya! 💪🏼😉👍
Wish I had seen this video last week before I cut my bangs! Now I see the mistakes I made. Thank you because next time I think I can do a good job!
That bit about non directional drying is amazing. I have just had a fringe (in the UK) cut but I have a really strong part and widows peak. Even the stylist couldn’t get it to sit right. Fortunately I remembered this video! What’s really weird is how the parting makes it bounce up. When I style it it’s a good length, in the morning it looks almost an inch shorter. 😜
Thank you so much. The BEST educational video on trimming our bang. Just subscribed!
My favorite tip involved the blending. I will definitely use your video next time I cut my bangs
lol. I did all three of the things he said I shouldn't do. Great video. Very helpful.
Thank you! I’m glad I could help!
The jewel of the crown.
Thanks so much. I was holding my bangs up in the air and trimming them. I always have one annoying spot on the end that wants to flip up no matter how many times I straighten it.
This is an awesome video!... you really explain everything so well and specifically.... so happy I found your channel!... much love and appreciation!.💜💜💜💜💜
Thank you so much Linda!!! Support like yours means SO much to me!!
Justin Hickox you are an awesome human being!... you can feel your good soul right through the screen!...
Thank you Linda!
@@justinhickox Very helpful thank you so much
You’re so welcome! Thank you for taking the time to check out the video!
Thanks so much for this! I was about to cry leaving my house because I messed up my bangs and you helped me correct the problem !!!
That was an awesome and thorough video! So many good tips to learn to keep from making those dreaded errors. Thank you so much!
You’re so welcome Sheila! I’m so glad it helped! I appreciate the feedback a ton! Was there any specific tip that stood out for you?
Great explanations, and extra helpful having your model follow your instructions, just as I would be doing. I miss my hairstylist, but I am desperate to cut my hair!
I have been needing this!!! I only got my hair twice a year. But obviously my bangs need more attention than that. I have all of the tools, but still need some skills.
I subscribed because anything I can do myself and not paying for and now driving since gas is 4.09 per gallon. 2 years ago it was 1.80 a gallon or less.
Thank You so very very much 🥰🦊💜
Thank you!!!!! My bangs grow SO fast and I often need to give them a tiny trim!
Great video! Very informative! I noticed in comments below that I have a “sister of the cowlick!” It’s especially tough dealing with it and styling bangs. I do try and dry the opposite way. I have a high forehead (5-head), and have worn bangs both parted to the side and straight across, blended into longer sides, as you’ve shown here. I’ve got to say, the ones going across seem much more flattering on me. Thanks so much, Justin. I must do my bangs now, as I can’t get to my stylist due to a stay at home order. Stay safe! 😘
Awesome! Thanks for the insight on that! I appreciate that feedback and help! Stay safe!
I a, like you C.M. Hall. I have to wear bangs. I have been fighting with my hairdresser for far to long and now I’m looking for a new one. I put a post on Facebook and I have gotten 0 responses. I’m so frustrated and upset. I have the cowlick too. I have a high forward. I love having straight bangs. He just won’t listen and does his thing and I end up cutting my bangs. I’m still watching but was looking for the texturing shears. I don’t get why someone who also just raised his prices without notice Won’t listen to me and what I want. Sorry for going on but I’m glad I’m not the only one with the issue and Justin you’re so easy to learn from. I have a few more to watch and will keep you on my bell. Nikki
@@nikkikrug667 Best wishes in finding someone new you can really work with, who’ll listen to you. 🙂
@@CMojoRising Thanks, you are so sweet. I’m even having trouble getting my groomer to call for my little Japanese Chin. They won’t answer and I have left 2 messages since Wednesday. I’m beginning to think it’s me now. I know I’m a sweet person and Gracie is a doll. I’ll keep trying and maybe she just doesn’t want my money.
Fantastic content even for us short-haired girls. As I always say point cut on dry hair because too many people end up with buster Brown bangs. Love your content
How did I miss this video one year ago when I really needed it?! 😭
Oh well, I’ve saved it to my favorites now. THANK YOU SO MUCH! xo💖
Thank you Justin! I think I have made all the mistakes you mentioned cutting my bangs! But I am learning and your video helps a lot!
Just discovered your channel and first things first....subscribed! What a very nice opportunity you have given with your expertise for those of us that are unable to get to a salon due to the restrictions. Thank you so very much.
Oh gosh I absolutely love your videos, I can’t tell you how helpful they’ve been for me especially during Covid and my hairdresser is still shut down so watching your awesome videos have saved me from making so many mistakes when I trimmed my hair and especially my bangs, Thanks again 😊✂️💇🏻♀️
Loved the video.
Thank you for sharing the proper techniques.
I honestly thought you just cut straight across.
I am to scared to cut my own bangs. But am now willing to try trimming myself..
Fantastic! I’m so glad I could help you gain some confidence with it!!! Any questions you still have after watching the video?
I ❤️ YOUR hair color in this video...ten years younger! LOVE. IT.
Oh thank you!
You're a very good teacher 💯👌!!! Thanks so much for your great video. I can understand now how I made a mess of my bangs when I needed to trim them between going for cuts to my stylist.
Yeyy ... new video! Cutting the bangs by myself 👍🏻 okay ... wanna try to my daugh first 😁hoping its work 😍💖Thank you Justin!
Awesome!!!! Can’t wait to hear how it works for ya!!! Thanks for checking out the video!!
Thank You I love love your videos I am so thrilled I found ya What a pro and what great videos I have already registered for one of your videos starting in a few minutes I am hooked
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate the support!
Super video with styling tips for cutting bangs. Really enjoyed.
Justin- YOU ROCK!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your knowledge with the world!
I've always been judged by my looks (true, natural redhead) and conformed to how stylists "think my hair should be cut and styled" and your videos have taught me alot to do it my way- cut my own hair and enjoy what I like (and want).
Happy! Happy! Joy! Joy! 😊😍🤗
Great video! I've been trimming my bangs for years. I picked up some great tips. Thanks!
Awesome Stacy! Thanks for checking it out! Glad it helped!
Now I'm going to have to go check the size of the blade on my thinning sheers. ;) Thanks! Great post. I have cut too far & gotten the square bang b4. That is very hard to blend in. Love the comb trick, never know quite where to start taking from.
Thank you’ so glad I could help! Love to hear how it goes next time!
Wow I been doing it wrong the whole time guilty of tension cutting awesome tips.
Thank you, I am disabled, living on a limited income, so this tutorial is very helpful
Whenever I went to a stylist, I would watch their methods VERY closely...and then replicate them at home myself (and for much cheaper!). The number one tip: DON'T cut too much. You can always go shorter, you can't go longer!
Thank you Justin!!!! ❤❤❤ Your video just prevented a catastrophe.
Thank you Justin for all your help…appreciate it for sure.
I just recently discovered your channel and I'm loving your videos! However I would like to time travel back to my college self and tell her these tricks in order to save decades of bad self-haircuts!!
Really good idea to let the girl actually cut them, useful! Thanks 😊
I wish I watched this 4 days ago. Great tutorial!
