Thanks for checking out my tutorial! I’m seriously curious, have you cut your own hair!?! This was actually hard for me to figure out how to film since I’m not used to doing teaching someone how to do it on themselves! Lol
Yes I have cut my own hair, and colour my hair from home, can't afford to go to a hair salon
From south Africa, Cape Town
I was *just* about to get my hair chopped when covid19 came along. 🤦♀️
If my hair weren’t so heavy, I’d wait, so THANK YOU for this! Headaches, be gone!
(I do cut my family’s hair... I’ve just never cut my own. Wish me luck! 😅)
I have cut my own hair before, but I’ll feel much more confident after watching this tutorial.
I’ve cut my own bangs a few times... with mixed results. I think the video was great, but I’m not going to try it just yet.. I will try to wait it out!! 😂😂 I have a friend who lives in Portland. If we ever go back to normal, I’ll visit and YOU can cut my hair !!
I've trimmed my hair numerous times when I was shoulder length and longer. Several years ago, I took several inches off myself, before finally deciding to go short. (Little did I know that having short hair would mean having to actually DO my hair instead of wash and go! Lol)
How lucky to be quarantined with a hairstylist! 😁
My wife would disagree probably! Lol!
@@justinhickox 😅
@@justinhickox LOL!
@@justinhickox I couldn’t imagine her disagreeing! 😉
I have been cutting my own hair for over 10 years. My hair used to be very short, but I wanted to leave it grow to shoulder length. Whenever I went to a hairdresser for a trim, I ended up again with either short hair or messed up hair. I had to fix a lot of professional cuts by either cutting it myself again or going to a different hairdresser. Since I have been cutting it myself, I have the length and style I want. And if I mess it up, it is my fault and I did not pay a lot of money for it. Thank you for your very informative videos.
Sounds like you've had some tough trips to the salon! Sorry about that. Thank you for the feedback! I appreciate the support for sure!
Katharina Murray Hi Katharina your story is mine !!! Exactly the same story every hairdresser just mess my hair every time !! Even when I ask just for a centimeter cut they end cutting 10 cm !! The last one butchered my hair 10 days ago and it went mulet style with short bottom 🤯🤬🤯 and I paid 70€ for it (my hair was to half back length...) I fixed it myself in few sessions and want go to hairdresser anymore. I will cut it myself and am teaching new techniques!! Kisses from France 🇫🇷 🙋🏻♀️❤️
This is exactly what I experienced. I have yet to find a professional that actually makes my hair look the way I want.
Yeah me too-I’ve also had cranberry, green and orange hair. I lived in Albany, Oregon, 70 miles south of Portland years ago and at the time Hickok was the bomb-not sure if that was Justin’s parents. Don’t remember why I didn’t travel there for a haircut. :))
What would have been more realistic is having your wife cut her hair WHILE you were explaining this haircut that people can give to themselves. :)
I totally agree. Actually that’s what we planned on doing but trying to get a mirror in front of her and setting up the cameras etc proved a much harder thing than I thought. Lol. This is why I usually do my tutorials videos at the salon! Lol.
Exactly - could you do that tutorial? I want to try this but I don't have the husband that has been in the business for 25 years to help out. ;)
I want to trim my hair but I'm worried I will really screw it up.
Agreed!!! It was great to watch but it was basically him cutting her hair. I would have liked to see how she held thing while she did it
it's helpful to watch a pro do it first , but then the wife should have tried . Next time, I guess. The layering looks impossible; there must be an easier way.
@@justinhickox Could you do it with someone who has shorter hair too? Maybe just below or at shoulder length and also older. Your wife is so beautiful and she has gorgeous straight hair whereas mine is greying and much shorter and curlier and is much harder to cut at home. I know as I have done it quite a few times and been told off by the hairdresser when I eventually get to see her.🤪☹️
Your knowledge is so helpful! I’ve been cutting my own hair my whole life and had no idea how to do successful layers. I’ve been watching all of your layers, trimming and bangs videos and have successfully restored my layered hair after a decade of failure! Thank you so much for sharing your accurate knowledge!!!!
I will trim my hair today following you.
OMG even your doggos are groomed immaculately!! 😂😂😂 Love it. Your wife is so lovely! Thanks for this great video :)
I commented on another video but want to say again that your videos are great. I used this one to trim my hair, twice a couple of months apart. Came out fantastic and I have NEVER cut my own hair! The 2nd time I went a little shorter and it looks fantastic! I dont feel comfortable going to my salon yet so.....Thank you sooooo much!
Thank you for the useful video! I just trimmed my 14 year old daughter’s hair - and we are both happy with the results. That is an accomplishment. (We also enjoyed the appearances of your dogs in the tutorial.) Thank you for posting. From a still locked down family living in the Netherlands!
Your wife's hair is on point! I love the cut, the color, and the highlights, and especially the contrast, which is perfect. The perks of marrying a stylist.
I thought your Cavalier was a statue at first. He/She didn't move for the longest of time Lol. Beautiful dogs. Great video on hair cutting at home.
Lol! I know right!!! I noticed that when I was editing the video! He just SAT there!! Lol! Honestly, he’s amazing for taking pictures of...he just sits there still and it’s hilarious!
The hilarious part is that early in the hair cut, as the camera shoots from a side angle, your wife and the spaniel are looking in the same direciion, with the same calm expression and same blinks of the eye. Loved it. And the instruction, thank you!
Sanni Judy Lol! I’ll have to go back and look for that!
This is cut your own hair. NOT YOU! It’s nice to be married to such a talented stylist.
This is very good of you to post - much appreciated as I need to give myself a trim & I feel confident. Your wife is beautiful & very patient.
Awesome! Glad I could help and thank you!!!
Amazing video; thank you so much for going into such detail and explaining the logistics behind each cut. Have cut my hair twice since COVID hit, made some mistakes following some videos and couldn't figure out where I went wrong, but this video cleared it up!
Absolutely love and appreciate you both! Thank you much love and blessings to you all!
I've been cutting my own fine hair for several years now. I flip my head down & comb all the hair forward, put in a hair tie & pull it down to about an inch or more from the ends. Then I cut off the desired amount and remove the hair tie. I comb it out again & separate the front from the back & repeat the process with the front section to have layers around my face. Simple and easy. Most people can't believe I cut my own hair because it looks like a salon cut. I may try some of your techniques with my next cut to see if it's any different.
Great teacher, great couple, and gorgeous dogs, thank you x
Thank you Vicki! I appreciate that a ton! I definitely married up! And I won’t argue about the dogs....we think they’re pretty damn special! Thanks for the support and checking out the video!
Thank you for posting this. My favorite salon just had to close for safety, but my hair is suffering. I cannot wait until I can support them again! But in the meantime, I will have healthy hair!
You’re so welcome Elizabeth! I know this time is tough for everyone so any way I can help...I’m down! Thanks for the feedback!
Thank you so much for your very helpful tips. It’s nice of you to take the time to show us.
Your wife looks like she enjoys every minute. Her smile is priceless ,when she looks at you it's love. Nice God Bless both.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. I don’t know that she enjoys doing the videos but she’s definitely kind enough to do them anyway. So in my opinion that’s a big win. :-)
I do cut my own hair and I'm so proud of myself for doing it just the way you showed here. :)
Nice! Well done!!!
This was very helpful. I'm now seeing my haircut in a whole new way...thank you!
Awesome!!! Thanks for checking out my video!!! I seriously appreciate the feedback and support!!
Great hair care tutorials!! Best one I’ve seen this whole time!! Thanks a lot guys!
Very informative and clear and most of all, helpful to an amateur hair cutter like me who needs to learn everything and you’ve covered a lot but a lot that sticks too! Thank you!! 👏👏👏✝️💟☮️
THANK you so much! It helps when you wear a white or light colored tshirt as a contrasting background to her hair, your hands, your shears. I love your channel, thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. This was a life saver for me to eliminate the sharp line on the sides.
👍🏼😍
That was brilliant! You’re a great teacher! Thank you.
Thank you! I really appreciate that
Thank you for your advice!!!! Yes! I followed your tutorial and it worked!!!!
When I was in school I had two different clients come in to have their diy haircuts at home "fixed". One did use the plastic handled kitchen scissors to cut straight across one pony tail on top of her head; the other decided her fringe was too long and needed some texture so she used toe nail clippers...on her fringe and she tried to face frame with them. Both were juniors in high school, but went to different schools.
It was interesting to say the least! Your English Cocker Spaniel is sooooo good!!! Thanks for the tutorial Justin!
~APRIL LIPKE
You are excellent at explaining things! Prob the best tutorial I've seen on this!
Thank you! I really appreciate that!
I’ve watch so many videos and you’re the first to actually recommend cutting it wet. Even professionals have said to cut your hair dry if doing it yourself at home. Just when I thought I had the courage. Now I don’t know what to do! 😫
That’s a great question. I prefer doing it wet because it’s much easier to control the hair when it’s wet. You can, cleaner section and therefore get a cleaner line. Especially if your hair is super thick managing it when it’s dry can be a lot more challenging. With that said, if you’re going to do it wet you just want to pay attention to potential hair shrinkage if you have any wave or curl. So just give yourself a little bit of wiggle room with how much you cut off to be safe in the beginning. Otherwise I much prefer doing it wet.
This is the easier to understand self-trim vid I've come across! Saving for later
These techniques totally worked for me thank you so much! 💕
That’s awesome!!! Thanks for the feedback!
Love your fur babies! Thanks for your videos. Be safe.
Yes, the diamond shape you demonstrate works great.
Awesome! Thanks for the feedback. I’m glad it works well for you.
Thank you 🙏, this is soooo helpfull, I will try this tomorrow 😁. My ends need this. I try my best!!
Great video! Beautiful home and love your Pups!
YES, I cut at least 6" off my hair using your method. It was down to my waist and frizzy uneven ens . It looks much better now but I need to cut long layers now. I cut it the same length. Thank you.
I love your practical tips easy to understand and follow. Subscribed! 👍😃👍
You did a great job with this video. I have spent a lot of time looking for a video made by an experienced professional that one could understand and this is exactly what I've been looking for. I like that instead of just giving instructions, you break everything down and teach the purpose of each tip. Thank you!
I subscribed!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. I’m so glad I could help. And welcome to the family. If you like that video have you had a chance to register for my webinar where I teach how to avoid Coming home haircut and haircolor mistakes? If you haven’t I really think you would love it. There’s a link to register in the description of this video and my most recent videos.
Another great and timely video. Will be using these tips as well. Thanks and stay safe.
Awesome! Thank you so much. I appreciate the feedback. Have you had a chance to register for my webinar all about how to do your hair at home? It’s happening next week. If you haven’t, there’s a link you can use to register in the description of my most recent video
We all laughed about being quarantined in March, now it's June I'm not laughing anymore. Thanks for the info, I really REALLY appreciate my hair stylist more than ever these days. Looks like I'm going to be rockin' a shag for a bit, got a little carried away, still great tips only wish I'd seen this last night LOL
LOL I hear you there! I’m actually putting together an entire master class course about how to cut and color your hair at home. It’s very close to being finished and I can’t wait to share it! I also have a webinar coming up very soon about doing your hair at home as well! Have you had a chance to register for that, you may or may not be interested but who knows when we’re going to get locked down again and before’s to be doing our own hair LOL
THANK YOU soooo much for your videos that help DIY people. I haven’t been cutting my hair at home for many many years and have watched all the videos online from pros like you, however none of them ever give direction if someone is cutting their own hair. I am so happy that I found your videos👍. I am wondering if you have video for taking bulkiness out. I believe my layers are too long around my face and I am trying to get more movement. I mainly just want to say thank you again for the great videos and your wife is adorable!!
I cut my hair at home all the time and would love more videos from you teaching how to cut hair from the perspective of someone cutting it themselves. There are mini mini mini tutorials online of how to cut someone else’s hair however this is a first finding YOUR videos. You’re doing great I say keep going and teaching more to the DIY👍
I just love that chandelier!! 🤣🤣😂
Love your tips, home, wife and adorable dog.
Thank you so much! I so appreciate that.
Thank you, loved your dogs. What a beautiful couple!
Thank you!! And we kind of like them too. :) lol 🙏
Your dog is adorable!!
Thanks for the pie shape tip. Learning between 8 or 9 month cuts with lockdowns here.
Brought my crown up to much last time trying to clean up dry ends.
Great timing! Scissors in hand! Thank you, great video!
Thanks for checking it out Judith!! I hope it helps! Can’t wait to hear how it turns out. Stay well!
It turned out great!! I am so pleased! It feels good to have the ends be fresh. I also used your pointers to give it more of a “u” shape which I like so much better than my last haircut that was straight across. I just hadn’t gotten back in to have her re-cut it. Thanks for helping with my sanity! ❤️from Connecticut.
Full of good advice--I'm so glad you stopped me from doing this from a seated (and possibly slumped) position.
Your assistant is a classic beauty, very Patrician. I can't even remember the last time I used that adjective, but it suits her lovely bone structure and skin.
Anyway, thanks again!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. I’ll make sure to let her know, she’ll love to hear it. Of course first we both have to go look up what that means. #I’mNotThatSmart.LOL
Oh, such a beautiful couple! God bless you!
This is great! Thanks for doing this tutorial.
You’re so welcome! Glad I could help. Did you have a chance to catch the webinar I did last Wednesday all about how to avoid home haircut and color mistakes? I’m going to be doing another one very soon. There’s a link in my most recent video to register.
What a great tutorial! I haven't had a trim for 5 months as my salon closed the day before my appointment. I go back to work at my office next week so I've sent this video to my husband and we'll give it a go this weekend. I have a slightly shorter version of your wife's haircut so this was perfect. Oh and by the way your wife and your dogs are all gorgeous! Thanks for your videos they are all so helpful.
Thank you so much! I’m super excited to hear how it turns out! Have you had a chance to register for my home here webinar? I’m actually creating an entire online course and doing a webinar about how to do your haircut and color at home. It’s gonna be awesome!
@@justinhickox It went really well, I'm super pleased! My husband just trimmed off the very ends of the length and the layers while we played the video. It will get me through until salons are able to open up in my area and I can get an appointment with my awesome stylist. My hair gets pretty bulky in the back but that will have to wait for now as that seems way too scary to tackle. I'd be interested to learn more about your upcoming webinar. Thanks again for the tutorial!!
Very helpful! 😀
Great tips and video..
It’s like he knows me, he really knows me! 😜thanks for the great tips, they are incredibly helpful!
You’re so welcome! I’m glad they helped! Thanks for the support as usual! I appreciate you!
How to cut my hair at home. Step #1: transform myself into a beauty like your wife. Step 2: Doesn’t matter. ☺️✌🏼❤️ Regardless thanks for the tips!
That’s sweet! She’ll be stoked to see this comment! ;). Thank you for that!
Thank you for this video!!! Very helpful!!! 😁
You’re so welcome! Thanks for checking it out!
You 2 look like you belong together. Agree with prior comments regarding in salon class would have been easier but just the teaching was excellent.
Relevant to this staying home time
Very true for sure!
I found this very helpful.
Awesome! Glad to hear it. Any part in particular you found helpful?
Thank you!...and, your dogs are soooo cute!
Thank you! We’re pretty in love with them!
I love watching your videos I've been license for 37 years. Of course I have people always wanted me to cut their hair. You remind me of techniques that is good Refreshers. Because I tend to cut my own hair. So doing long hair at home by myself. LOL and then I'll catch a friend that I've caught with and she'll cut my hair and check it to make sure it's even.
Awesome! Thank you so much. I always love having stylists on the channel. I really appreciate the support.
Thanks......it really worked!!!👍
Your dog is adorable 🥰
Very good video. I took notes. What I learned was, yes, I can do the front, and no, I can't do top or back layers. And that's okay. I think I can do the sides now and wait till I am comfortable getting to the salon to do the top and back. We're in Florida where the COVID has escalated. I want to style my hair like your wife's! It is beautiful. I will look for a video on that! Thank you for all your help! Jeanie
Thank you! I really appreciate that. I’m really glad I can help. I think you’d be surprised, I bet you could actually do the back layers. Have you had a chance to jump on one of my webinars about doing your hair at home? Also have you watched the video about how to style hair with a round brush? That may have some insight for styling your hair like my wife’s. Either that video or the one about how to flat iron your hair. Both would probably help.
Great tutorial. I usually pull my hair forward but will try this . Watched your fringe video that's good too.
Awesome! Thanks Paula! I hope it makes things easier for ya! Can’t wait to hear how it goes!
Justin Hickox done it.....looks great lol
I actually preferred seeing YOU cut it. I think if you had her do it, it wouldn’t be as clear.
I learn so much from watching my stylist.
Great video. 👍🏻 I always wanted to be a stylist. I enjoyed trimming my sons hair in between haircuts when they were younger. 💜
Thank you! I appreciate that! Super glad it helped!
Thank you for sharing. WOW
You’re so welcome Michelle! Hope it helps!
Thank you! Glad I found your videos.
You’re so welcome! Were you able to catch my webinar yesterday about how to color and cut your hair at home? If not there’s a link to it in my most recent videos Description.
@@justinhickox I will definitely watch that!
Cutting it now! Thanks for the tips
Awesome. Can’t wait to hear how it goes!
THANK YOU
Excellent video! Will just have to keep growing, keep transitioning color (no box dye ever) and wish you had a friend on the East coast to recommend when this is over. Or Ill have to fly there in a year since you are going to be flooded/booked, thank you for these videos Beautiful wife and the dog is so cute!
My hero for the day! Thank you Justin for your insightful videos =) I'm 54 and a year ago I had to start cutting and coloring my own hair. Boy,not fun. I have long hair, probably too long for my age, down to the middle of my back, but now I have confidence to cut it shorter...yay! Would you ever consider doing a video on coloring hair? I know, that's a big one to ask but as you know there are lots of ladies and gents like me out in the frequency waves needing to know and wanting to ditch the walmart box color hairdo jobs. Its so terrible that with my last Walmart purchase someone switched out the brown dye for a blond dye...yeah my lucky day. I had to walk around with a orange strip down my head for a month. Maybe just a tutorial on which box color is best. I'm tiring of my "two tone" dark brown to redish brown look and would love to have a more natural dark brown one color look. Your the best! Lucy
Cute couple!! Awesome job on the video!
Thank you! I really appreciate that.
Great job! Thanks for sharing with us non pros, lol.
lol! Happy to! Hope it helps a little! Thanks for the feedback!!
Great tutorial!
Thank you Melissa! I appreciate that! Glad you liked it!
Great video!... perfect timing for all of us that can’t get our hair done!... you and your wife are like a perfect match!.., beautiful couple!... she is gorgeous!... thank you so much, I maybe trying this!... stay safe and healthy... and thank you both for bringing light into some dark times!!!!👏👏👏👏👏💜💜💜💜
Thank you Linda! I definitely married up! :) Stay well!!! Thanks again for the support as always!
Love you cavalier🐶
Thank you Glenda! He’s a great pup for sure! They’re so damn sweet!
I know you don't promote home-self-hair-trims. Buuuuut, I need it so bad right now! My stylist completed my highlights about 4 weeks ago, but couldn't do the trim. So I needed this SO badly!!! And thanks for taking us out on the limb....I use to trim my layers bluntly. THIS was awesome...as always. And I must say, you two are adorable together and Dionna has the cutest dimples!
Thank you Lori!! I’m really glad it helped!!! And you’re way too nice! I seriously appreciate your constant support. It means so much! Thank you.
How cute are you guys aw
Thank you Maria! ;)
Cut my hair. Divided in half and sectioned off places to cut. I cut upward and followed the lines cut before. Same with bangs. My hair has more movement now. Thanks. Must be wonderful to be married to a hairstylist.
I have seen videos on how to trim your hair (while we are all shut-ins) and none showed how to NOT have the "V" or "U" shape in the back which is horrible for thin fine hair. Thanks....I'm gonna have to give it a go. Take a little so I don't mess it up.
Thank you, I will go cut my own hair!! Good teaching!!
You’re welcome! So glad I could help!
I need to learn this, I have no one to do this here in PA and no money now to spend, until I get to NY.
Your wife had the same style as me. And she is very pretty. Thank you for the tips. And love your tattoo sleeves. I'm almost finished with my sleeve. It is portraits of all my dogs with butterflies weaving them together. Great video.
Awesome! Thank you!!! How much more work do you have left on the sleeves?
I have half of my forearm to go. Hopefully, when the shops reopen, I can get back in. I've always wanted one but working in the corporate world, I wouldn't do it. At 59, I said what the heck. And I love it because it is so unique. My artist is awesome at capturing the face of dogs.
That’s awesome! I love that you did that! I heard a quote once that I LOVE! “Tattoos definitely aren’t for everyone. They’re just to f&@“ing good for some people”. Lol.
Ahww you have cavalier prince charles. Mine died a year ago. They are sooo cuuuteee. I had same colour
You really do help people and we thank you. I just want to help you - "acrossed" is not a word. (cross, crossed, across), not acrossed. You go across the street or you crossed the street.
Ahh! I appreciate that! I can barely speak so I need folks out there like you! I said "defurmental" instead of detrimental FOREVER before someone told me! LOL!!!!!
I've been cutting my hair at home for years and I had way more bad hair cuts when I went to the salon , um that's why I started cutting it myself .
Glad you found a way that works for ya! Thats awesome! :)
Me too. They love to cut
Love ❤️ your 🐶 OMG too cute
Oh yeah reminder if you can do the review on the valoom for volume and texture I use a crimper on mine now just underneath the top layers so you won't see the crimp it works wonderful but not the same as the checker board type pattern thanks again and God bless you and Deonna !!
I’ll definitely look into that, unfortunately I have to be pretty picky about what topics I create videos on right now. There’s definitely a method to building a channel if I want to continue to grow quickly. :)
@@justinhickox Definitely agree with you and thanks for your honesty and commitment to your channel really appreciate your time and consideration to answer me most people don't respond back alot at all thanks again
Gr8 advice Justin. I just watched your previous video and then linked to this some FAB advice and clearly put. If I don't hv thinning shears fir layers around face can I therefore cut into them as you showed for the layers on top area of head..... Thks again have great day.... Love from Oz ❤️
Yes you can but you would want to be careful about cutting too much length off doing that.
Oh how I wish to find your channel and this video earlier before I chopped off my hair making it long layered cut from one length style!...It was a moment...late in the evening and there I go with the scissors thinking I know how to do it..well....nope....now I watch you...those sides I brought them up too much in front so when I chopped it diagonal it was too short...so I have this quite short layers now on sides....and what a great tip on trimming layers at the back....did not know your top layers should go from recession line to occipital bone!!!..that is genius to me and I am going to remmember this forever now...I also cut hair from back straight across..so I have it curved at the back....now I know I need to angle it like you did... Better later than ever I have found this video...now I let this mess of my hair to grow out....and than I will follow your guidelines...thank you so much!!!...you do not know how many videos I have watched on long layer cut and did not get so much out of them as yours!!..i joined your group here on yutube and will check your other creations...Regards .Jana
That’s awesome! I’m so glad I could help. If you check out some of my most recent videos I also have a link in the description of them to join my webinar. I share tips on how to cut and color your hair at home. I think you might really like it.
@@justinhickox Thank you so much regarding the webinar... but my financial situation is a dissaster for now and I can stick only to basic survival.Jana
Your wife is adorable! Great video. Thank you!
Thank you! I’m so glad you liked it. I’ll make sure to tell her that, she’ll love to hear it.
I truly enjoyed this. I was really angry with myself for not getting a trim before the "social isolation" period started. Now, I can somewhat safely trim...with the hair scissors I got for doing my dogs' hair. Your wife's smile is contagious. She is such a good sport.
Thank you Shelby! Can’t wait to hear how it turns out for ya!
I wish more beauticians would start putting long hair up without lots of back combing..Apprrciate your videos much.......
Thank you for all of your beautiful and helpful hair advice how about “ hickocox style fix and trix” or “ hickckox snip & tips” or “hickox fix & tips
Please do some tuitorial to cut waist length long hair with layers.I have worst experience with layering and shifted to only front layering for last few years but really excited to do it again after watching your videos.love from India.
I’ll work on that for sure. Thanks for the feedback.
I highly doubt I would try this on myself. However, these tips are helpful. Not my general practice but I have done quite a few cuts for my children. It has always turned out very nice, however...much much shorter than we had planned. Nice to hear about the angles etc. Makes sense. (I tell my girls, if they are insistent on me doing it, they get what they get & they don't have a fit. Sigh of relief as they have always been pleased. Sweating bullets on my part)
Lol! I hear ya there! I remember how terrified I was on my first client in hair school! LOL! Hope these techniques help a little! :)
Wow a hairdresser who doesn't cut your long hair short! Rare!
