    Oh my god. IT WORKS!!!!!!!!! I am the type of girl who would NEVER let anyone touch my hair besides my hairstylist in Taiwan. However, I haven’t been able to go back for a year and my hair has gotten ridiculously long (almost below my butt). With that said, I came across this video and I rewatched at least ten times (and at least 10 videos from other youtubers) and read through almost every comment before I finally got the courage to pick up the scissors (while still shaking) The outcome is all I could ever dream of yet not many hairstylists can ever achieve. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!! I am so happy that I feel like I am dreaming. Tips: dry cut! And if you have natural curly/wavy hair like me, don’t cut too much the first time and go with her exact instructions and length guideline. Thank you once again!!!!!

    Just tried this, my hair was just as long as hers. I've been struggling with tons of split ends and I HATE going to the hairdresser.
    This works fantastically!! I followed every step (including straightening my hair) and I ended up cutting off 5-6 inches and now I have soft, split end free hair ❤️ thank you!

    To those thinking of trying this method. This was my first attempt at cutting my own hair (which was hanging below my buttocks). I was extremely nervous. But it worked so well. I will likely never see the inside of a hair salon again because this video and some comments below gave me the confidence to do it myself. Thank you for sharing this method with the world, @bebexo
    To hair stylists. The main reasons why I wanted to learn how to cut my own hair are:
    1) I'm severely allergic to artificial fragrance and therefore can't be in most hair salons, let alone have someone put it onto my hair. I have to use products that don't contain harmful chemicals.
    2) Even if the products are all-natural, I find it extremely uncomfortable when hair stylists pressure me to get all sorts of treatments done and buy the products. I understand you want to make sales but it's tiring to have to explain why I can't use just any products and then endure a lecture like I don't know what's good for me.

    For everyone skeptical about this method, let me tell you what happened. I was so freaking terrified. I almost cried when I made the first cut. I was so scared to let my hair down to look at it when I was done. But when I took the hair tie out, I flipped my hair back and looked in the mirror, OH MY GOD IT LOOKED PERFECT. I guarantee anyone can do this. This is coming from someone who is terrible at doing anything with their hair. If I can do it, you absolutely can. This works! Honestly the worst part is going to be cleaning up your bathroom afterwards. 😂

    So I just did this, and let me tell you, it looks SO FREAKING CUTE!!!! It's also completely even all the way around. Just know that if you do the pony tail close to your forehead like she does, the look is very layered around your face and does not take a lot off of the length. My bangs are easily 4 inches shorter than they were before and I believe only about an inch was taken off of the back. I've been wanting to learn how to cut my own hair for a while though because I think it is ridiculous to pay $20, which is what the salons around me usually charge. As a college student who is not working, I need to budget every penny. I'm so glad Bebexo made this video because my hair feels so refreshed and it was free! Thank you!!!

    Ooook I have done this twice and I must weigh in. Do you see how small her head is? Well, maybe it’s small to me because mine is like a cabbage on a stick. Anyways, if you have a huge head, do NOT put the ponytail all the way forward at the brim of the forehead unless you want an Alabama mullet. Instead, do a high ponytail somewhere between the bump on the biggest part of your skull and the direct top of your head. (Aka, put it BACK further so the front layers won’t be as short.) This will give you good layers and keep you from looking like Joe Dirt. The second time I did it, I followed my own advice and this took me 5 minutes and it looked great. Good luck

    I have curly hair and I didn't straighten it before; I made a ponytail as shown in the video and combed it (I did not wash my hair before). I proceeded as said with the cutting and thinning out and opened my hair, then I redid it with just the top layer of hair which doesn't curl so much and therefore needed some extra cutting (it got shorter compared to the hair that curls a lot since the curls straightened a bit due to the ponytail). I barely cut anything extra there, but I thinned out the ends a bit more; I cut that layer quite short last time so there was no need to cut it again; it was also still healthy. So yeah, it can also be used for curly hair but might need some individual adjustment.
    Nice video btw, well explained and nice to listen.

    Recently been obsessed with the long v shaped hair look. Saw the good reviews in the comments and decided to try it on my long (cut straight across, no layers whatsoever) straight black hair. Followed the steps, brought my hair to the front of my head just like her. After the first cut (maybe about 4 inches - palms were so sweaty) it didn’t turn out like a v, maybe a very wide U shape and I imagine it’s because my hair was originally a straight cut. It was almost as if all the hair I cut off was only from the front of my hair. I did the cut again a few days later (2-3 inch) following the same instructions and it turned out nicer, a bit more of a v shape and I kept it like that. A few days ago I decided to do the cut again (maybe only 2-3 inch) and I’m obsessed with how it looks now!! It’s almost as if each cut carved it more and more into the v shape. I’ve kept a lot of my length using this method. I imagine it’s not the best hair style to prevent split ends but I’m happy with it.
    Also I have 0 experience cutting hair and no knowledge about hair. This method is very helpful!

      Did your hair look good in the first cut. cause I actually have a straight cut so that's why I really want to try but I just want to cut 3 inches

    • @auccy955
      @auccy955 11 месяцев назад

      ​@winglessfairy9448 To help you imagine - if I recall correctly, the first cut I did barely cut any layers at the back of my hair but cut quite a lot at the front which she does mention in the video. Hence why it looked like a U shape, which I guess makes sense if you imagine bunching all your hair at the front of your head you'll be cutting mainly the front parts of your hair, not the back.
      I think how this haircut looks also depends how thick your hair is. If you want to try this haircut, only cut a bit at first maybe just an inch, and then take it down, see how it looks before you cut more rather than cutting all 3 inches at once.
      I think one thing I wish I did after doing the first cut was try styling my hair because in my opinion this cut looks very nice styled, like nowadays I sleep with my hair in a bun every night just so there's some waves in it, so make sure you try that after you do the cut.

      +Rae-Ann Casillas I've had 2 kids and never had it "all fall out. " I've hardly had but a little more than usual come out when I brush it after washing it, sometimes not even that. Not to mention, not cutting it wouldn't make a difference even IF that were true. If it all falls out like you say, then having it long will make absolutely no difference, right? Not all women experience the minimal hair loss after pregnancy anyway.

      Ellen O​ yay for you!! But I had 2 kids lost my hair both times! And it's because it never fell out when I was pregnant and I also breast fed. Maybe that's why it did... Just wanted to give a for warning. I didn't cut my hair the second time because I did the first and because so much fell out it was like I had no hair! No it wouldn't stop it but a short hair cut with thin hair is ugly!!!

    My hair was already in need of a trim before corona-related lockdown, but 3 weeks in and it was a straggly mess! I don't possess hair straighteners as my hair in naturally wavy, and I really don't like the way it looks when it's dead straight. So I washed my hair and waited until it was damp but not wet- just wet enough that it would be dead straight when I combed the sections through. It worked!! Definitely not as good a job as a professional haircut as some commenters have said, but my hair looks so much healthier than it did and will see me through until we're allowed to be in close contact with people again! Thanks for the upload.

    Bought some new sheers and went for it for the first time. ** *Note* ** I DID struggle with cutting off my first ponytail because my hair is thicker than hers, and it didnt cut off so easy. If your hair is thicker, TAKE YOUR TIME to cut it off evenly. I was pushing my scissors too hard to cut it off in one fell swoop like her and ended up with a crooked cut. I was able to even it up (a LITTLE at a time) but it worried me until I did. I didn't have thinning shears but that's ok, point cutting worked just fine. THANK YOU for this video. I'll save myself 50$/cut and will cut it more often now to maintain healthy long hair. No more frizz and putting it off!

I live in the same small town. So, I used your method last night with fabulous results! It's the kind of layers that I've always asked stylists to do but none have really garnered the layered and tapered result I was looking for until last night.
    #1, I picked up some Goody hair scissors at the local grocer for like $6. #2, I did mine with semi-wet hair as mine is really fine and hard to manage when dry. I finished it off today with dry hair with just a little more tip cutting and to find any irregularities.

    OMGosh!! I am so HAPPY I watched this video!!! I tried it out on my hair & it looks GREAT!!! Thanks for posting this! Although, I think it took me a lil longer than 10 mins cause I don't think I did a perfect job at first (thank God LONG hair LOL), & had to trim it up a bit more to officially get it straight... Thanks again!

    Amazing it actually worked! This is so practical for hair maintenance during self-isolation.

    I did this last year in September and it turned out great! I’m here to watch this vid again since it all grew back.

    Because of Covid19 I have been coloring my hair at home but have not cut it in about a year! Found this video an decided to give it a shot; cut just over 6 inches hair looks great got ride of all the split ends and dryness. Hair looks healthier, with more volume and waves look more defined. Would definitely recommend giving a try with a good pair of hair cutting scissors.
