Hey GlamFam! So one of the primary issues I notice with people trusting stylists is that communication is not always clear, I find that often, stylists are in a rush to make the hair look healthy. Building trust is super important when it comes down to haircare! Many of my clients trust me to take exactly what is needed due to clear communication and established trust. They know that if it’s their goal to grow their hair out, I’m here for the long haul!
My hope is that other stylists see this video and start thinking about establishing trust, rather than just cutting hair, trust creates life long clients!

I love your mannequin. Thank you
Yes, it sure can!
Thanks so much! I’m glad you love it!
@@GetGlamFam thank youu!
This is why I respect him. He is never just about the coins. This is how he grew his rep and respect which equals clients.
Well said🙌🏿🙌🏿
You and I both. His advice matters to me. The way I take care of my hair is under his guidance. And my hair is pretty long , thick & healthy. I am terrified of hairdressers I learn from him I fix my hair at home.
That’s funny cause I was thinking I like him because he’s also thinking about the coin. More appointments and trust= more coin and better relationship built. It’s a two way thing
Exactly because I'm going to lose all respect and probably reck their rep if they cut more than I want. It's my decision as a client. What I want is it! Periodt 😆
I'm sure he is about the coins. His approach is more sustainable towards a long-term client relationship a nd good reputation. He is empathetic and it appears that he doesn't take it personal when his ideas are not immediately adopted.
Yesss! Thank you. There is no need for a democracy when it pertains to my hair. It’s growing out of my head, therefore I dictate what happens to it.
🙌🏾
Oooffff AMEN!
Amen so true, but then they look at you side ways like we the ones w an attitude, like no its my hair, my head, so I should be able to tell how much and what to do.
@@323mell true… but clearly the splits gon continue to travel up the hair strand if you don’t snip them in the butt right away. I trimmed my own hair two days ago and y’all… ion think I’ve been mentally stable ever since 😂 it was almost to my waist, not it’s by my boobs but it had to be done 😭😭😭
Hello!! This comment!!
That's exactly why I stopped going to the salon. I was wearing a short style and wanted to grow it out. Everytime I grew out an inch, she'd take an inch and a half.
Man! You couldn’t get anywhere.
@@nila309 just getting shorter and shorter....
I told my friend stop letting the stylist cut your hair it appears shorter and never grows I do my own hair I ain’t got time for these stylist
@Lil*Red*writing*Poet* girl that’s the best way save your money a lot of trials and tribulations after being traumatized from these stylist..no one gets the chance and play in my hair and do what they want nah sis..my hair past my bra strap I’m good 🙂
@Lil'*Red*Writing* Poet* lol facts
You’re absolutely right. I haven’t had my hair cut in 3 years Bc my last stylist cut off 5 inches when I just asked for a trim. I’m traumatized
Goddamn
Same!! I spent $50 in a decent pair of hair scissors and have been trimming my own ever since my former stylist cut at least 5 inches off when I asked for a trim...with my curly frizzy I looked like a poodle...never again...I'll keep doing it myself and wear hats more often
Same
Had someone do ten on mine I went to hair school and haven't looked back.
Are people really that attached to their hair
That trust is the bedrock of our relationship. When my stylist goes on vacation so do I. No one but Cheryl in my hair.
Argh you're so lucky. I live in France and was traumatized because most salons don't know how to deal with afro hair, and most of the specialized salons in the parisian black district are more about braids/relaxer. I don't know who to trust with my hair. Have not been to the hair salon in at least 10 years....................
I love to maintain length after a trim. I feel more comfortable doing that and coming back in a few months to take more off rather than such a drastic change in one session
I am a training hair stylist and I feel the same way. I extensively talk with my clients before any haircutting, and we agree on a length to take off, because I know that I want the same treatment when I get my haircut :) I had a bob which I'm growing out and I hate when stylists get scissor-happy
I wish I could find a stylist like you in my area 😭 I am sick and tired of going to people who make it into a fight about what I want for my hair or over promise on what they can give me leaving me disappointed at the end reault
facts!!...going to the salon used to give me anxiety because of the bullying and guilting of stylists. You know whats not best for me? ME feeling bad after leaving your chair and hating my hair when I get home.
I noticed this at the gym, too. Trainers too eager to get their clients in shape and the client ends up too sore after the first session to come back to the gym. Building trust via rapport is important for longevity. A lot of people don’t think in the long term.
True story! I went to a trainer once and I swear they tried to kill me 😂
As a stylist I totally agree
Funny enough that's my approach as a therapist. Start where the client is comfortable build trust and rapport first. Then help the client move toward a healthy realistic goal.
I said to my self. This is just how we should interact with each other across the board. Marriage, Parenting, Friendships etc
I remember as a kid a stylist cut a lot off, I wasn't happy. The next day at school my teacher was so livid on my behalf, she wouldn't stop talking about they had no right to take so much. My sister brought me and after it over she was mad as well. 😕 sometimes it can be to much for the client, I never did go back to that person. 😒
I love this answer. When stylists cut more than you want you don't want to go to them again. You feel violated. And they just want to say they were getting rid of the unhealthy hair.
Sometimes they just cut you short cause it's less product, less time and more money. Plus, if it's shorter and only they can achieve that style it's a win for them.
Wow I never thought of those reasons you gave why they cut too much!
@@cooky_2076 i will also say that style look the best when you have the mist healthiest ends. It curls better. So they don't want you representing their work if your hair wont curl right
yep! i had my hair straighten and they cut it down to a bob! i havent been to a hairdresser since that day 3 years ago and now my hair is past my wingblades
I'm sorry, maybe I am just oblivious, but how does a shorter cut equal less time? Or since when do stylists charge based on the length of the hair they took off? Statement that they use less of finishing products on shorter styles is technically true but the difference is basically negligible to their bottom line. Not to mention, salon is usually the one carrying and paying for the product used at they establishment not hairdressers individually. Unless you're Beyonce and have a freelancer on location of course.
@@ylukx what I'm about to say might be unrelated, but i know stylists charge you more depending on your hair type. If you have long thick 4c hair like i do, they charge you a higher price. 😭
I haven't. Been to get my hair cut professionally in years cause of an experience I've had with a stylest cutting off way more hair than I wanted and said she did it cause it looked better than where I wanted to cut it. I was like I don't care what YOU think looks better I wanted what I wanted. Now I just cut my hair myself until I can find a stylest like you that I can trust.
lol call me petty, but i would've only paid her half the price for the cut and told her, "that looked better than the amount you wanted to charge me" 😏
I once had a hairdresser put another COLOR in my hair than what was agreed upon. AFTER she let it process and washed it out she told me "btw that's not the color you asked for, I thought it would be too wild for you for a first time coloring"... WHAAAAAAAT????? That was the last time I went to her. After that at another hairdresser's salon I had to wait a little for the hairdresser to finish a lady before me. The lady said: "Isnt't it different?" hairdresser goes: "yes, I thought I try another color on you this time..." ?????? And that was the last time I went to THAT hairdresser. I honestly don't know what they are thinking.....
This is why I love my stylist. He listens and respects my decisions. Sometimes he just want to dust, but I'm all for the cut for healthy hair. Respect and communication is key (in any relationship)
That’s how, I do as a stylist. I never cut more hair than the client is comfortable with. It is their hair and they have to live with it.
Thank youuuu!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Exactly! When I asked for layers in my hair, I never asked to trim any ends and whatever because I know that my ends have a tendency to puff off compared to the rest of my hair and that is because it’s really curly. Like that stylist really cut my hair like I had straight hair 🗿
Very rare though, because I am from Louisiana only one stylists did what I asked, everybody else hated to see me with long hair.
@@Mimi24177 It's because they are jealous
@@MixedChick1 Exactly! I have told stylists not to cut and they do so anyway.
Yes Sir , communicate with the client, and that will avoid the unnecessary foolery, such as you being labeled as scissor happy, tears over the cut and as stated building their trust!!! On point !!
Yes!!! This is so important! Anytime I cut someone’s hair I always tell them what I believe they should take off but I also insure them that it’s completely up to what they are comfortable with. And the end of the day, making your client happy is what brings them back and gains their trust.
This is really the ONLY reason I'm afraid to go to a stylist. Well, that and the fact that many stylists feel the need to straighten your hair to cut it. I have 4b/4c hair with 4a at the nape. Different parts of my hair has different levels of shrinkage. Cutting my hair in a straight state just doesn't make sense to me. How is it going to look when it all shrinks up again. I know a curly haired woman that got an uneven chop because of that.
Especially considering I dont even wear it straight. I usually do the heatless blowout look. I never put heat on my hair. They're not about to mess up all of my hard work! Lol But I'm in desperate need of a shape. I can trim my hair on my own but I'm afraid they're going to take off too much just to shape it.
I want to grow my hair but I'm worried about adding heat to my hair to trim it. 🥴 I don't like that.
Find a stylist experienced in cutting curly hair. Have a thorough consultation and communicate through the entire process.
But it’s hard to cut split ends with curly hair
For me I prefer to cut my hair when it’s straight when it’s curly the hair shrinks so my hair appears shorter when it cut wet..when it’s straight I have control of what the length looks like while being cut
Some can cut or trim on blown-out hair (rather than flat-ironed); maybe you can find a hairstylist that does this.
Exactly why I'm so scared to get my ends trimmed more often. The last time I went I had to big chop (see pfp) because she insisted on straightening my no-heat-ever-applied hair in order to get a better cut. My hair was fried, curls never came back. I went in April to a natural place. Still scared to do it again.
Thank you so much its like everytime I get my hair to a comfortable length the stylist wants to cut it all off to make it "even" and get all of the "dead ends"
And it's always bull crap.
Thank you! Most stylist I know will take the whole 3.5 to 4 inches off this person REGARDLESS of what you tell them. This is one of many reasons I don't deal with most stylist.
There should always be a consultation before the scissors come out. Explain the issue about split ends to the client. Come to an agreement and proceed from there. Building trust is crucial. Great topic and thanks for sharing.
This is sooo true. I’ve had to tell my stylist before… like look Hun I’m not emotionally ready for you to take that piece off today…we’ll snip it next time. And that’s what we did! 💜
I need this…my ends are horrible right now. I really don’t want my hair to be shorter than short. Thanks
def can do it gradually but if its a cycle of not getting trims on time and needing more than an inch then you need to switch it up and work on hair strengthening. ppl really hang on to something thats not even healthy looking. you know?
I read on a forum once about this girl who had pretty badly damaged hair. Once she realized this and got more into hair care, she couldn't bring herself to get all the damage cut off. So, I think every couple weeks or so, she would just do a dusting on herself. Never went to a salon or anything. She took care of hair and just maintained the length until, slowly, the damage was trimmed away.
Of course, I don't know if this would work for you. She had (relatively) straight hair, and I admittedly don't know much about wavy or curly hair if that's what you have. You do what you feel is best for you ☺️
@@100XPercentX there's no need to keep trimming and trimming. Just leave it. It will grow .
Congratulations on hitting 500,000!
I definitely agree! At this point, I just close my eyes and tell my stylist to do what he feels is best. Since I’ve been getting trims on the regular these last few years my hair has retained length and thickness. I don’t even feel right anymore if I don’t get my trims. I’ve been more shocked after each trim now because I usually don’t have to have a lot cut off so I’ve been sneaking a peek in a little more now during the process lol
You are sooooo right! Trust is so important for sure.
My hair was just as long as the individual in the video back in the early and mid 2000s. My hair was damaged in areas that I was not aware of until I met this hairstylist name Dion. Dion told me I had 6 inches of damaged hair and I told her to cut it off and whatever else she needs to do. When she was done it was basically three inches past my ear that she cut off. The hair grew back ever so beautifully and full due to her treatments and recommendations that I followed. Although I did not keep my hair long but when it was long, Dion had me as the TALK of downtown Chicago....Haha! That hair was blowing in the wind and had plenty of Sheen! Haha! People thought I was biracial or multiracial and I would always tell them "No. I'm fully Black. I just have a really awesome hair stylist"...haha! I completely agree with Linwood, go with your clients wishes, and I'm also glad, there are awesome hair stylists such Linwood where I am convinced I could trust him to cut off as much hair as needed to get to the ultimate goal of healthy hair whether long or short.
They still doing hair? If so would like the info.
@@missccarr89: I have no clue. I move to another state. I haven't seen Dion in many years.
This is super key…great advice. I know so many people (especially women) have been terrorized when they realize their hair has been cut too short and there’s absolutely nothing that can be done about it.
I feel like a picture needs to be taken, and then a conversation should be had. The client is asking for the best result. Although, you can’t trust every stylist, you shouldn’t want to walk out with split ends and breakage. If your body and routine truly support you, then the drastic cuts won’t happen. Health and shape over length is the team I’ll always stand on!!!
Trust is everything. I was messed over in a salon long ago. I haven't been back.
Great way to operate! Listening to the client to build trust 🙌🏾🙏🏾 Thank you!
Your way is the best way because a client having trust in you is the most important relationship.
I swear I wish you came back to NC. I hate when I leave a salon cursing under my breath. ✌🏽&❤️
When I am browsing a video what stylist think about cutting the hair, your channel pop up and it’s very good to Learn from what you guys talk about the hair. To me I think it’s Not only to Manufacture the Hair, But Also to communicate with customers how they want to achieve the hair look . You have nice videos, Thumb up for you !
You are a great stylist. Listen to your clients
I agree. That's exactly how I communicate with my clients.
I agree with your recommendation! A person needs to be able to trust there stylist. Also the stylist should create a hair cut that is complimentary to the client’s facial structure and appearance! IJS
Exactly it’s also good to explain because some people get scissor happy and don’t explain the benefits of needing to cut hair off. I always explain and let them decide and also show them where it looks thinner and the areas where it may need cut so they feet a part of the process and feel like you are listening to them and including them in their hair journey.
No, see, you're one of them! There's no benefit to chopping it all off! That is your opinion. That's what YOU consider a " benefit" in your own mind. It is not what is ACTUALLY better, it is not an actual benefit.
@@louisacapell if the hair is thinning like that, that means the split ends are riding up and it’s just going to get worse from there. What’s wrong with her telling the client that it’s better to cut that off before it’s gets worse?
@@HudaEmc because what you are saying is not true LOL and it is not better to chop it off and make it shorter and shorter until everybody's got ear length hair like you want
@@louisacapell there is no benefit to keeping chewed up ends. If you knew what you were doing then your hair won’t be in that state to begin with 🙃
@@NaturallyDOPE0990 have not cut my hair in 15 years . Hair to my calves. Ends are thinner. But magically it's never " split up to the scalp" lololol
You are spot on about that trust, I had to learn how to cut and color my own hair because of that reason, I never ever got what I asked for seemed to always be what they wanted.
You're the first stylist that I've ever heard talk about trust. I love it 💗
Love you guys🤗💞
Thank you for sharing platinum Content 💖
And I love you for this!
I SUBSCRIBED!! Asking does build trust. The fact that you include me shows respect, therefore trust. Over 76 years the stylist that ask were given permission to trim where they thought best, I was pleased & my hair stayed healthy. Those other unfortunate times caused tears, no tip, and I never returned.
You earned my respect. 👍👏
This is what tell my clients who have had too much taken off in the past and hairdresser scared. It is really appreciated and I love gaining their trust.
Trust is key!🥰
I LOVE that answer/explanation and I will definitely remember that when I (finally) get my hair license. 💜💇🏽♀️
Exactly and this is why people turn to you 😊♥️.
I love this, too many times stylists have cut all my hair even and I was traumatized and never went back. I don’t trust beauticians to cut my hair any more!
And I would go to him! I love hairstylists there are empathic and out your feelings FIRST
Linwood, that is why I enjoy and adore you because to me you care about the client and the outcome of their particular hair situations. Please keep making your videos.
Love the short cut!
See,this is one example of why you will soon have one million subscribers💙💙
You’re absolutely right on this.
Yes! I respect that!
Finally ALL PROPS GLAM FAM!!!!!!
I have not had a proper cut in....... for that very reason. Who can you trust????
I'm so glad you said that, Linwood. Old school stylist (not all cause I haven't been around all) the ones I've been around don't listen to their customer. I've heard, "I'm the professional and I tell them what's best for their hair". I walked away, smh, saying you are about to lose that one.
Thanks for sharing ☺️
I so appreciate you sharing this because I've seen people go to get the ends trimmed and lose so much hair they were hesitant to go back. I personally had a stylist not take off enough because she was used to seeing angry clients when others took too much off. I really appreciate being asked because trust means everything when it comes to hair. I always appreciate your videos.
I love everything you said in this video. All stylist should be like you.
Yes 👏🏼, it’s all about communication!!!
Absolutely correct, trust is key.
His message! On point 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Ugggh, I wish I could find a stylist like this. I’ve been afraid of going to the salon for years because I’ve had so many negative experiences of people just doing what they want to my hair instead of doing what I asked for.
I do everything myself now - trims, blowouts, I even used to relax my own hair (until I melted it off… oops.) And even though my hair probably looks hella jankey, I feel at least if it’s going to be botched I might as well save my coins and botch it myself.
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I appreciate stylist who educate you on proper hair maintenance,that inform you of the amount of dead ends you have and then respect your decision of how much you want off.
You're a great person. Clients take baby steps with their hair styles.👏❤
Agreed, trust is important!
Thank you for this. Trust is important.
Thank you for that. I haven't gotten my hair cut or trimmed in many many years due to me being afraid of how much the stylist will take off. Thanks for caring seriously. ❤️
Yes, lol, I have seen these debates. Discussions with a large hand mirror, so they can see, is always wise.
THANK YOU!! I went into the salon a few months after I cut my own hair. I cut it short but that sh*t was even. It was a square and I wanted length. I went in for hair extensions. They recommended against it and instead instead cut my hair even shorter to give it a 'shape.' When I tell you it is so uneven and choppy!! I cannot wear my hair down. What they did to my hair is a legit crime and this cut should be illegal. Can't wait for it to grow out.
I really respect and appreciate you for pointing out the importance of collaborating with the client to find out what they want before you chop chop. My last stylist would just do whatever she wanted ... hence the reason she is no longer my stylist. Linwood, your approach works better for people like me
Finally!!!!! Someone who considers what the client prefers 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you so much for this! I have had stylists cut 2-3 inches off my hair when I asked for a trim without asking me if it was okay. Every time I have ever stopped going to a stylist, it is because they did something to my hair without my permission. I had one lady burn my hair out because she didn't listen when I told her I only relaxed my roots. She relaxed my hair from root to tip. Needless to say, my hair fell out in handfuls.....
Trust is key!!
Thank you so much!! We need more stylists like you xx
Very true about building trust with the client! When I was 14, I started going to a stylist who was a friend of the family because she did my older sister and my moms hair. She told me I had breakage (about the size of a quarter) and that she would have to cut my hair. Y'all, this lady cut my shoulder length hair into a Fantasia style pixie cut! Never went back to her and have NEVER allowed anyone to cut/trim my hair again and that was 15 years ago.
You’re a wise Man, I have had trouble trusting stylists every since I was a teenager when I went into the shop my hair was on the middle of my back and left with it barely touching my shoulders , it grew back fast but now I would need to pray not to lay holy hands LOL 🤣😂🤣
I love this guy and his family !!!!
Great advice for anyone. I’ve always loved my hair long. But due to stress have lost a lot of my hair. Now that it’s finally growing back I struggle with letting anyone cut off my length. Thank you Linwood for sharing your thoughts!!!
I just love your honesty and dedication to actual hair care and not just doing hair that looks good. I’ve seen stylists do stuff that look great but it’s detrimental to the clients hair but as long as they get to post a pic on social media….
We need more stylists like himmm
I love following you Linwood. You educate me so much on hair. Keep up the good work 👍🏾 👍🏾. My friend 👍🏾 😘
YOU ARE AWESOME !!!!!!! everytime im traumatized by hair cuts i wait 8 months to come back and then I’m in the same situation again ! We’re not professionals, we’re humans with an attachment to our hair, so please have patience with us
Wow! As someone who has to sit in that chair, THANK YOU! Thank you for letting me know I have some say in my cut! 😂 I’m not trying to go into shock. I had a stylist before ‘rona and she would tell me straight “I know where I need to cut, but I don’t want you to go into shock, so I’m only gonna take this much” that trust is very important
Thank you for speaking on this because when I saw that video I said the same thing !
I've been going to various saloons from 1989-2002. Not one of them listened to me.
So I started my own saloon in my own bathroom, and I only got 1 client for the last 19 years.
He is really happy at the end of every session. He seems nice.
I agree when you first cut someone hair who hasn’t been getting regular trims trust is so important because you can get them to healthy beautiful hair IF they come back to you because they trust you!
this really made me feel good that there are people actually out there like this. I’ve had so many nightmare experiences with hair stylists that I taught myself how to cut / dye / bleach my own hair. I trust myself and if I mess up then it’s my fault, I move past it and let it grow out lol
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
You are so on point as always! ❤️
Sad to say I’ve literally been cutting/ trimming my hair for the last 10 years (zero formal training) bc of this exact issue... my “beautician trust issues” are REAL. Awesome video! I wish I lived in your city!
Much needed video..thank you Linwood!!! 😊🥰🙌🏾
💯 % correct. Trust is key!
i wish you lived near me in nj, we need more stylist to listen and do as customer ask
Absolutely its what the client wants
I love your channel. You get your clients.
Thank you. I hate seeing so much length cut. I respect listening to the person in your chair.
Totally love the “how” you educate 🔥
My hair after COVID 2022. I was washing it myself, DIYS braids, no added hair, and Bandu twistouts, on my obsessively curly, kinky hair. I got the big chop, and moved on, but you are so smart, and know to meet us where we are. Of course, providing educating options.
Luv this man he knows what he is talking about and doing
